Cabinet Lock Types: Cam Lock, Handle Lock, Swing Handle

Which lock for your enclosure?

Cabinet locks are more important than buyers think

Three common types

Cam lock: small, key lock on door

Low security, light duty

For indoor cabinets where security is not critical

Handle lock: metal handle with lock

Better grip, medium security

Most common for floor standing cabinets

Swing handle (quarter turn): large metal handle with gasket compression

High security, IP rating

For outdoor and industrial

Key options: same key (all locks keyed alike), different key, tool-less

Special: fingerprint lock, RFID lock for smart cabinets
