Securing CPUs to Tables
Locking CPUs shut
Trapping the mice and keyboards
Dear Folks,
At Nathan Hale, we have experienced some of the same problems with computers
in classrooms that other schools have had. In particular, we have found it
necessary not only to lock our CPUs to the table, but to also to lock them
shut, to fasten our keyboards and mice to the CPUs and to glue the mice
shut. I have documented our little "voyage of discovery" with pictures on a
simple way to lock up levy computers on our website. The site is located
at: http://hale.ssd.k12.wa.us/~tonyh/locks/lockpics.html
In general, we used mouse traps, security cables with barrel locks, and
double-holed looper devices. Also a lot of glue!
Here's some specifics also found on the website:
bms-mtrap mouse trap $1.95ea
mbs-cbllo barrel lock $8.39
bms-cbc 6' cable $5.95ea
bms-cbc 9' cable $7.95ea
bms-looper double hole $. 50ea
The "mouse trap" is the "U" shaped widget. The rest is self-explanatory.
These can be purchased at Seattle Platten :
