Lösbart

Låsbart is a Swedish term used as an adjective to describe objects or enclosures that can be secured with a lock. It indicates the presence or potential of a locking mechanism, rather than implying that the item is currently locked.

The term is commonly found in product specifications, hardware descriptions, furniture, luggage, and safety equipment to signal that access can be restricted. Examples include lockable cabinets, lockable drawers, lockable boxes, and lockable cases. Being låsbart is a designation of capability, not necessarily the current state of security.

Locking mechanisms associated with låsbart items can be mechanical, electronic, or a combination of both. Options include keys, combinations, RFID cards, or biometric methods. The designation helps consumers and professionals compare security features when selecting products for storage, transport, or secure handling of valuables or sensitive materials.

In practical use, låsbart means that a user can activate a lock to secure contents and that access requires appropriate authorization to reopen. It distinguishes the feature from simply being designed to resist tampering or from already being locked, focusing on the capability to lock rather than the exact lock state at any given moment.
