# Create a Lock

**Lock Without Vesting: TRUST AI LOCK**

1. **Connect Your Wallet**\
   Open your preferred wallet (e.g., MetaMask, Trust Wallet) and connect it to the platform.
2. **Access the Lock Creation Page**\
   Go to the TRUST AI LOCK page: <https://www.trtlaunch.io/lock/create>.
3. **Input Token Address**\
   Enter the token or LP token address you want to lock.
4. **Input Lock Title**\
   For example, set the title as **"TRUST AI LOCK"**. This helps label your lock for easy identification.
5. **Choose Lock Type: Normal Option**\
   Select the **Normal Option** for locking tokens without vesting.
6. **Set the Lock Amount**\
   Input the number of tokens to lock (only numerical values, no percentages). Ensure you enter the exact amount.
7. **Set Lock Duration (UTC Time)**\
   Choose the date and time when the tokens will be unlocked. Input the lock period carefully, as tokens will remain locked until this precise moment in UTC.
8. **Approve and Confirm Lock Transactions**\
   After clicking **Add Lock**, two transactions will be triggered:
   * **Approve Transaction**: MetaMask (or your connected wallet) will ask you to approve the contract to use your tokens. Review the details and click **Approve**.
   * **Lock Confirmation Transaction**: Once the approval is completed, a second transaction will pop up to confirm the lock itself. Confirm the transaction in your wallet to finish locking the tokens.
