1307 CAMLOCK 12MM

Product Details

Is the 1307 CAMLOCK 12MM suitable for cabinet and furniture applications?

Yes. The 1307 CAMLOCK 12MM is designed for use as a cabinet catch and bolt camlock style fitting, helping keep doors or access panels closed securely. It is commonly used in both living and light commercial furniture setups where a reliable closure mechanism is needed.

What does 12MM refer to on this camlock?

12MM refers to the camlock size designation. This helps match the fitting to compatible furniture hardware and existing cut outs or mounting requirements. If you are replacing a camlock, checking the size is important for a correct fit and smooth operation.

Will this camlock work as a replacement for an existing cabinet cam catch?

It can, if the original fitting matches the same camlock type and size. When replacing, confirm the part number and the required diameter or mounting specification, particularly if your cabinet door already has cut outs drilled for a specific camlock fit.

Does the camlock require alignment during installation?

Yes, correct alignment matters. Camlock fittings typically rely on the cam mechanism engaging properly with the receiver or strike component. Take care to position the hardware so the cam and mating part meet accurately, which helps prevent binding and improves day to day closing.

How is the 1307 CAMLOCK 12MM typically used for securing cabinet doors?

It secures closures using a cam action mechanism. When engaged, the camlock pulls the door into position and holds it closed. This makes it a practical choice where you want a quick and dependable latch action for furniture doors and storage compartments.

Can I use this in both living and commercial furniture settings?

Yes. The 1307 CAMLOCK 12MM is built for general furniture use, which also makes it suitable for many living and light commercial applications. If the furniture will see frequent opening and closing, ensure the rest of the hardware and fixing points are installed correctly for reliable performance.

Are there any checks I should make before ordering to ensure compatibility?

Confirm the part number and camlock size first. Also check the mounting and any existing hole pattern in your cabinet or door. If you are unsure, comparing measurements or the cut out dimensions against the required 12MM camlock specification can help avoid fit issues and makes installation straightforward.
