An arcane lock
spell cast upon a door, cabinet, chest, or portal magically locks it. The caster can freely pass his or her own lock without affecting it; otherwise, a door or object secured with arcane lock can be opened only by breaking in or by a successful
dispel magic or
knock spell. Add +10 to the normal DC to break open a door or portal affected by this
spell. Note that a
knock spell does not remove an arcane lock. It only suppresses it for 10 minutes.
