What is the TSA lock and how is it used?

When buying a suitcase, how many times are we then forced to buy a padlock to prevent it from being opened easily? And how many times do these locks turn out to be not exactly reliable?

Due to this most of our suitcases feature a combination lock with TSA function, i.e. a combination of numbers. But what does TSA closure mean? T.S.A. is the acronym for Transportation Security Administration: the US government agency responsible for transportation safety born after the tragic events of September 11, 2001. With the current security laws in place, the US customs authorities are authorized to inspect baggage in transit. If these were protected by a lock or padlock of any type, they could then be forced to check their contents.

Passenger safety and rights

How to combine the need for security checks in accordance with passenger laws and not have their suitcases damaged? The answer to this problem lies in the creation of the TSA locks. These can be integrated into the suitcase itself with a system of locking zipper sliders, or also presented with a secured “TSA” padlock
