Choosing a lock Before selecting a lock it is advisable to have considered four main aspects. 1) Security level required It is important to assess risk. For instance, in industrial applications, very often a lock or latch has only to be tamper proof, so it is unnecessary to choose the most complex device; it is likely that price, ease of fitting and simplicity of use are more important than outright security. Conversely, you may wish to protect high value items or cash in an unsupervised location, so a lock able to withstand a sustained assault would be more appropriate, causing a criminal...

The cam is the metal plate, sometimes called a pawl, attached to the ‘tail’ of a cam lock and which is the actual locking member. Many types are available, either as standard items for general use or as specials, designed for particular applications. In their simplest form, with the lock fitted to a door, they turn behind the doorframe or jamb and are locked in position by the removal of the key, holding the door shut. Flat cams Flat cams are the most commonly used and are fitted when the body length of the lock, as supplied, is ideal for the intended application. The only decision to be...
