I was looking for safety in a new apartment where installing anything on the door wasn’t allowed. This came and I not only read the directions I also saw the video. I had to switch the chain to the bottom but so far so good. I would buy another when needed

I think, from personal experience, that this type of portable door lock has a dangerous design and can easily trap you by not letting you open the door once you have used it. In short, the design does not consider that most spring latches weaken with age, and the latch does not fully retract to the edge of the door. The 1/16″ or 1/8″ part of the latch still sticking out gets behind the metal of the portable door lock and you are trapped.
I tried out this portable door lock inside my bathroom at home. The flat metal part slipped easily enough through to the strikeplate.
But the tool would not come out, and I was trapped in my bathroom! No one home. No phone on me. The window too small to crawl out of, and besides, the entry doors were all locked and I did not have a key on me.
But I did happen to have a pocket multi-tool on me, a Leatherman Skeletor, and eventually thought to use it to remove the screws holding the lock to the door and removed the inside lock handle and pushed the outside lever to the floor. The door still would not open.
The immediate problem was that the door strike latch spring mechanism would not retract the latch enough, using my multi-tool flat tip screwdriver bit to turn the latch back. I had to use the pliers part of the multi-tool to destroy the mechanism enough so I could force the latch back enough to escape.
Free at last, I found out the problem and why this product and others like it are so dangerous. In a house with wood doors, the latch mechanism spring eventually weakens, and the latch does not fully retract to flush with the edge of the door. In my case, the latch still stuck out about 1/8″ inch or so, which did not effect the door from opening, as there is a gap between the door and the door frame/buck.
But with this portable door lock metal inserted, it took up enough space so that 1/16″ of my latch was stuck behind that metal insert, and that is why I was trapped inside.
I think this type of portable door lock is dangerous. Maybe a commercially installed steel door with a commercial spring latch would be OK, but I would not trust it at all. You’d have to measure the door gap and check if the spring latch fully retracts into the door edge first, if you happen to travel with a micrometer and feeler gauges.
And on a wood door, it swells a bit as the humidity changes, so this portable door lock might just work when you check in, but might not let you check out if the door swelled a bit, say after a hot shower or during a rainstorm.
Dangerous Design! Once trapped inside like I was, the only way out besides busting the door (which is hard to do anyway when you are inside an inside-opening door, and doors are expensive), is to not only remove the lock (which usually has to start from the inside of the door) but to then bend and break the strike latch mechanism so you can physically force the latch all the way back and flush or inside the door edge. Then you need to buy a new spring latch and install it.
I just now went and looked at all 10 doors in my house, and on 8 on them, including one steel exterior door, the spring latch does not fully retract to the edge of the door or within it. All of these doors and spring latches are only about ten years old, and none ever failed to open before.

Used for girls trip in Mexico, easy to use. Product is as described. Comes with simple directions but not needed. It was hard to get in the space of the door a couple of nights as you can see their door opened is up against the wall. We tested it with one of us outside using our room key to get in and it held up. Would recommend!

I bought this with the intention of using it for hotel doors, but the 2 holes are too small. It does work in home door frames and it is very strong. Product does work & is easy to use. Just might not fit where you need it to.

The AceMining Portable Door Lock is a fantastic addition to my travel essentials and home security toolkit. It’s incredibly easy to use—just slip it into the door latch, and it adds an extra layer of security that gives me peace of mind, especially when staying in hotels or Airbnb rentals. The lock is small, lightweight, and portable, making it perfect for traveling or even using in shared living spaces like dorms or rentals.
Despite its compact size, it feels sturdy and reliable. Once it’s in place, the door is impossible to open from the outside, even if someone has a key. This added security makes me feel much safer when traveling alone or when I need a quick lock that doesn’t require installation.
I also appreciate that the AceMining lock works on most standard doors and is easy to set up in seconds. For anyone looking for an affordable and effective way to enhance their security at home or on the go, I highly recommend this portable door lock!

This works fine at my house and on my office door. But hasn’t worked on my last 8 hotel stays.
I purchased this for hotel rooms and so far it hasn’t worked on any brands (Hilton, Marriott, and Holliday Inn) I visited.

Muito bom! Um chaveiro viu o produto e considerou-o bastante seguro e difícil de ser violado.
Estou usando a 2 meses sem problemas.

Device is easy to use and really well made. Locks doors tight adding great security to almost any door except this kind. This door has a tab that will not allow the device to function. Once in place the dead bolt will not activate because the plate interferes with one of the tabs on the lock. I am still glad we bought this device and still carry it with us everywhere traveling. This door was a one off.
