Tharen the Damned

I like this spell. But it becomes next to usesless in higher levels as the Disable Device Check remains at a static 20.
I suggest to change the wording as follows:
An arcane lock spell cast upon a door, chest, or portal
magically locks it. You can freely pass your own arcane
lock without affecting it. If the locked object has a lock and remains attached to the object,the DC to open that lock increases by 10 or your Caster Level + your Casting bonus if the result is higher.
If the object does not have a lock, this spell creates one that can only be opened with a Disable Device skill Check DC 20 or 10 + your Caster Level + your Casting bonus if the result is higher.
A door or object secured with this spell can be opened only by breaking in or with a successful dispel magic or knock spell. Add 10 to the normal DC to break open a door or portal affected by this
spell. A knock spell does not remove an arcane lock; it only
suppresses the effect for 10 minutes.
