Anchor Lock

The anchor-lock icon represents a secure or locked link, often used to denote a protected or encrypted hyperlink. This icon originates from the early days of the web, where anchor tags were used to create hyperlinks between web pages. The anchor-lock icon is commonly used in web browsers, text editors, and other software applications to indicate a secure or locked link.

In software applications like web browsers, the anchor-lock icon is often used to indicate a protected or encrypted link. For example, in Google Chrome, the anchor-lock icon is displayed next to a link to indicate that it is secure or locked. This icon is also found in text editors, such as Microsoft Word, where it is used to denote a protected or encrypted hyperlink or bookmark.

From a UX perspective, the anchor-lock icon communicates the action of accessing a secure or locked link. It helps users understand that they can trust the hyperlink and access it safely, making it easier to navigate and find relevant information.

Anchor Lock is one of 1,407 icons in Font Awesome 6 Solid, made by Dave Gandy and released under CC BY 4.0. It is drawn on a 640 × 512 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds AnchorLockIcon to components/icons/fa6-solid-anchor-lock.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed AnchorLockIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Anchor Lock icon, or any of 1,407 Font Awesome 6 Solid icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 640 × 512 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Anchor Lock", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. AnchorLockIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <AnchorLockIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.
