Cylinder Cam Lock, with Straight Cam and Nut Attachment, Thread Max. 15 mm

Product Details

What does the 90 degree closure direction A mean?

This Cylinder Cam Lock has a standard profile with a 90 degree closure travel. The closure direction is A (D, F, G), meaning it is suitable for common cabinet cam orientations. If you need a reversible cam action, this version supports reversible operation with a key trap to help prevent accidental key removal.

Is this lock suitable for my cabinet door thickness?

It is designed for doors up to 18 mm thick (for door thickness ≤18 mm). Before ordering, check the actual door thickness so the cam and fixing components sit correctly for smooth locking.

How is the lock installed and what fixing hardware do I need?

This model is installed by screw fixing with a hexagonal nut. It follows an aperture pattern of 19 x 16 mm. You will also need to make sure you have the correct parts for the fit, as the order reference notes that spacer bushes and an anti twist washer are supplied separately.

Will I be able to remove the key once the cabinet is locked?

The lock is specified as having a key trap feature in its 90 degree reversible action. This generally means the key is retained when in the locked or trapped position, helping ensure the lock is fully engaged before the key can be removed.

Is it keyed alike, and what does keyed alike H1 mean for replacements?

This product is marked keyed alike: key change H1. That means multiple locks in the same keyed set can be operated with matching keys, which is useful for keeping access consistent across cabinets. If you are planning replacements, confirm that the replacement order uses the same keyed alike reference.

Can I use it in both left and right handed cabinet arrangements?

Yes. The closure travel is reversible and the specification lists compatibility with closure direction A (D, F, G). That makes it easier to fit to cabinets with different hinge and latch orientations, as long as the required cam direction matches your layout.

What finish and appearance should I expect?

The lock is supplied in a nickel plated, polished finish. This gives a bright, durable look that suits many cabinet styles in living and commercial spaces.
