Prime-Line U 9942 Drawer and Cabinet Lock, 5/8 in., Brass Finish | Diecast Housing, Fits 5/16 in. Max Panel Thickness, Secure Important Files and Drawers, 1 Kit

Easy to install, even if your cabinet mount is a little different. Mine was a very old cedar closet used for clothing. I had to bend the one flat retainer piece to get just a bit more clearance. Worked fine, all secure.

Works well - I purchased this to add a lock to an ikea drawer. I was able to fit it into a typical drawer easily. Great deal.

I bought this to use as practice for a residential/commercial locksmithing class that I took. It works fine.

Great lock, I bought it to replace a cabinet lock I'd lost the key to and it was an easy install. It's built good, key slides in/out nicely and I have the use of my cabinet back! I was especially impressed by the low cost and the good quality which these days are words seldom synonymous. I could have gone to the hardware store but with the gas to drive down there and my being a 'Prime' member it was easier to order it here, this way I couldn't procrastinate on it as I had been doing for too long, when it came to the door, I pretty much had to put it in. besides, it was a little cheaper and anything to save a buck right? or 2 or 3. I highly recommend this, if you're anything like me, order it and when it comes in the mail stop whatever you're doing and install the damn thing!

We have actually bought two of these. The first one was used for a VHS/DVD cabinet that we lost the original key for. So, this particular item was perfect because the bracket piece was already on the cabinet. However, I didn't realize that the bracket side needed to be attached in a special way so when we purchased it for a similar cabinet to use for kids' books and craft items... it didn't work out. We don't have any way of attaching the bracket to the cabinet and when we tried to make a way... we ended up just ruining the entire thing. So, as long as you ONLY need the lock side of this then it is pretty good. However, if you need to use all of the pieces and try to attach it to something that did not previously have something like this installed... then it is not a great idea.On another note, the kids tried to unlock the DVD cabinet as soon as we installed this and ended up breaking one of the keys VERY easily. Good thing they sent two! If a kid can bend it with very little effort then these keys are unfortunately pretty cheap. I wasn't really expecting anything heavy duty but I was NOT expecting a young child to be able to bend the key so easily.

Brought this for the bottom flipper of a Craftsman tool box. It took a bit of adjustment (I needed an extra washer to make the distance correct for the bar to turn correct, also ended up bending the small bar about a 1/8 of an inch for a better fit) but worked great. If I had purchased a shorter size it might have been better, but the quality is very good and there are plenty of parts to make it work. I am a Happy Camper!!
