Emma found some poppy dust and sprinkled it over him every night when he was in bed. I assume since she caused him to pass out, she can do that anytime.

Now, the real issue is how would he not run into magic with his anger and heightened emotions. But then again, I can see some subtleties. Hook didn't get to touch Excalibur when the group saw it in the basement and Hook was seemingly drawn Excalibur calling him like the dagger called Emma, but that could have just been because of the big, clunky lock..
