I've seen them mentioned on here, but it appears it's something Google knows nothing about :eek: And Amazon don't seem to know about them either.

Are they any good? Is there a stockist in the UK?

Hmm thanks for that but I get a message server not found

We have one which we use on the passenger door. We find it very handy as we never have to remember to lock the door.
We bought it online from Germany.
It fitted the door well but it needed a little trimming because of our door surround.

I liked the concept of the Elefant locks so I took some measurements of my Hab door and designed my own. My son took my CAD model and machined one on his CNC milling machine.

I 3D-printed the other one, which is almost invisible when it's in place.

The "Alarm" label is to remind me to disable the alarm before opening the Hab door in the morning!

Took me about 1/2 hour to make one from a 2mm aluminium offcut.

Its effectiveness is based on the distance between the two locking pins on the hab door.

The plate prevents the distance getting small enough to open the door
