The working system of a cabinet door lock
Cabinet door locks use keyed locking mechanisms, locking bars, push-button locks and electronic ones use keypads. Each lock has a tumbler and when the key is inserted into the lock, the teeth roll the tumbler into position by force.
The lock bar pushes itself up into a locked position when the key is turned to do so. This restricts the cabinet to be pulled open.
Installation of cabinet door locks
The lock is installed inside the cabinet frame. The tumbler housing and cabinet lock are inserted through a hole drilled at the top of the cabinet frame. The lock is placed in a position so that the bolt can slide into the intended hole of the cabinet.
Knowing the functionality, working system and installation procedure will help you in securing cabinet doors with these locks.
