Product Details

What is a radial pin tumbler cam lock and where is it used?

A radial pin tumbler cam lock is a cabinet lock designed for furniture and storage applications where a cam lock mechanism turns to open and close. The RADIAL PIN TUMBLER LOCK 2403 is typically used on cabinets, cupboards and other locked compartments in both living and commercial environments.

Will this lock suit a cabinet that requires an 18mm fix?

This model is specified as 18mm, which refers to the lock size intended for the cabinet door mounting requirements. If your cabinet uses an 18mm cam lock style, this product is a direct fit for that opening and locking setup. If you are unsure, check your existing lock size or measure the mounting specification before ordering.

How do I confirm the part number matches what I need?

The product part number for this lock is 2403. When replacing an existing lock, matching the part number and the 18mm fit requirement is the most reliable way to avoid compatibility issues. It is also helpful to confirm the cam lock style used on your door.

What key and unlocking style should I expect from a cam lock?

As a cam lock, this unit uses the key to rotate the internal mechanism and turn the cam to release the door. Many cabinet cam locks are used with a keyed cylinder system, so if you are replacing a lock, ensure the keying requirements match your needs, especially if you want the new lock to work with existing keys.

Is this suitable for everyday use on furniture or commercial cabinets?

Yes. Cabinet cam locks are commonly used where reliable access control is needed, and this model is intended for living and commercial solutions. For best performance, keep the cabinet door aligned and avoid forcing the key or cam when the door is out of true.

Can this be used as a replacement for an existing cabinet lock?

It can be, provided the original lock is the same style and matches the 18mm mounting requirement. Using the correct mounting size and the correct part number, 2403, helps ensure the cam lock cylinder and cam operation align correctly with your cabinet door.
