OPINION

Appellant Carrington Keys appeals from a District Court order dismissing his complaint for failure to exhaust administrative remedies under 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a). Because no substantial question is presented, we will affirm. See L.A.R. 27.4.

On May 6, 2004, Keys filed a complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 alleging First and Eighth Amendment violations against numerous prison officials. He filed his first amended complaint on May 19, 2004, raising the same claims, but with added details. At issue in this appeal is the dismissal of Keys’ claims against Correctional Officers Craig, Zimmerman, Wittel, Alba, and Webb. Keys alleges each denied him food, religious material, and legal material in retaliation for his testimony in another inmate’s court proceedings. On April 8, 2005, adopting a Magistrate Judge’s report and recommendation, the District Court dismissed the complaint because it held Keys failed to properly exhaust his available administrative remedies. Keys appeals. 1

*126 An inmate must properly exhaust all available administrative remedies prior to filing suit under § 1983. See 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a); Porter v. Nussle, 534 U.S. 516, 524, 122 S.Ct. 983, 152 L.Ed.2d 12 (2002); Spruill, 372 F.3d at 222. In Spruill we held that proper exhaustion means that inmates must follow the procedural requirements of the prison grievance system. Spruill, 372 F.3d at 231. If an inmate fails to follow the prison grievance policy, then his claims are procedurally defaulted.

The Commonwealth’s grievance policy provides three levels of review. See DC-ADM 804, Part VI. The District Court found Keys failed to satisfy the final stage of review. “An inmate who is dissatisfied with the disposition of an appeal from the Facility Manager, may submit an appeal to the Secretary’s Office of Inmate Grievances and Appeals, [hereinafter SOI-GA]....” DC-ADM 804, Part VI.D.l.b. On May 24, 2004, Keys timely filed an appeal, but failed to attach documents required for “a proper appeal to final review.” DC-ADM 804, Part VI.D.l.h. 2 The SOIGA refused to act on the appeal because of this deficiency.

Keys argued in the District Court that he did eventually submit the documents required for proper review, but he was delayed because the prison took two weeks to make copies. However, Keys never submitted the documents to the SOIGA, nor did he request an extension of time to file them. Rather, he forwarded the documents along with a letter explaining his situation to Jeffrey Beard, the DOC Secretary. It is also evident that Keys was aware of the filing requirements, but still failed to adhere to the grievance policy. 3 Keys’ claims are thus procedurally defaulted. Accordingly, because no substantial question is presented, the District Court’s order dismissing the complaint will be affirmed.
