Bag Inspections by US Customs

U.S.A. Custom are cutting!

Did you know that US Custom officers are rigorous in checking bags going through American airports? If you have a padlock on your suitcase, odds are it will become a victim of the bolt croppers given the volume of work at hand. However, all is not lost.

An organisation called ‘Travel Sentry’ created a mechanism whereby any lock bearing the Travel Sentry Logo allows a US Customs officer to rapidly use a special tool to open the lock. When they are done looking at your pearly whites, the case can be secured without causing any damage to your lock.

Design Go have a variety of Travel Sentry approved locks which can be found on our website.
