Security Lock Bracket for Apple MacBook Pro Retina Display Touch Bar 13" & 15" (MBP 2016-2019 Models)

I have read the reviews before buying. I read all the one star reviews, and upon receiving my Kgear lock set I quickly realized these locks are legitimate. They fit fine. They were simple to install. If you know how to use a screwdriver and have played with legos before, then you have the competency to install. Literally takes five minutes. It's just plug and play. It DOES NOT affect screen rotation for the MacBook Pro 2018. The pieces were engineered with the tilt in mind and the way you check this is by pushing your screen to its maximum tilt, then using max tilt as reference while aligning the lock pieces before screwing it in place. Simple. Elegant. Minimal. I recommend. Pictures attached.

The pieces themselves are functional and fine. Fortunately I had my own lock.The screws that came with it didn't fit my computer (2019, 16" monitor) so I had to get separate screws.But otherwise works as advertised.I expected bare minimum functionality. and these definitely deliver bare minimum functionality.

At first glance, this product seems really easy to install. Just remove two screws on your mac and then replace them with the longer screws provided and remove the adhesive tape covers right?! WRONG! First off, the adhesive protective cover I had to pry off with the provided screwdriver which started to rip up the adhesive. Secondly, the screws provided weren't long enough to grab... it just kept spinning. While spinning it grabbed some of the nearby adhesive and it became stuck in the hole, making what should have been an easy project become a nightmare of me trying to pry the thing off my MacBook while it tried to bend the lower part of my macs cover... I failed to install the product and will be returning it. To clarify, if you do decide to purchase, consider removing some of the adhesive near the holes on the product to avoid this happening, and make sure the screws are long enough to bite in before removing the adhesive cover. (I was installing on a 15" 2019 MacBook Pro)

Problem: the distance from screw hole to edge of computer is greater than the space allowed on adapter. To fix this, I filed down the metal until I had enough room. It works, but the whole thing wiggles, and I think a really good yank might separate the lock from my laptop, I will continue to search for a better solution.If you are wondering what I am talking about, read o :I Need to secure my notebook (I am currently in rehab). This machine does not have a security loop on the chassis attach to a cable and lock. It does have a slot into which a cable with lock will fit, but the problem is the laptop is so slim that you can’t turn the lock: there just isn’t enough room. This piece attaches to the computer via a screw and double sided tape, thereby providing a slot wide enough for the key to turn. Too bad it does not fit

This was easy to install and even comes with a small screw driver to assist. Once the red seal on the bottom of the feet were removed the feet sat on the machine just fine and the screws worked. I have a Macbook Pro 13-inch 2016 model and it works great with my kensington lock.

I like the lock and install process (I have used a bunch of them over the last several years) but I just got the new MacBookPro 15" for 2019 and the installed lock part sticks up too high so that it rubs or pinches the corner of the screen and cannot open or close the screen...so check to see if they had done any updates to this...

The package that arrived today looked more industrial and less polished, but every worked as advertised. It is on securely and works perfectly with a Kensington cable lock that I already own. It provides a nice tilt to my MacBook Pro, and it does not hinder the opening and closing of the screen in any way: the key is to align the right side attachment correctly to be out of the way. The most difficult part was peeling off the cover off the adhesives.

Somebody can easily cut it with a good metal cutter, or brake the wire, where you attach it to your macbook
