The barrel turns, the cam rotates behind the panel, and the drawer, cabinet or letterbox stays shut. What separates a lock that lasts from one that jams is the tolerance in that rotation, and this one is built from zinc alloy with a nickel-plated steel cam, in five lengths from sixteen to thirty-eight millimetres so the barrel matches the panel thickness rather than protrudes from it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe model range covers the HJ02 family: HJ02 at sixteen millimetres, HJ02-1 at twenty, HJ02-2 at twenty-five and HJ02-3 at thirty. Key combinations run beyond five hundred, which is the note that matters most on a multi-lock installation. Order keyed-alike and one key opens every lock in the set, which is what a filing cabinet bank, a set of lockers or a shop's display cases actually require. Order key-different when separate custody is the point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach set arrives as one lock plus two flat keys, in a PP bag, weighing between 150 and 200 grams per bag. The zinc alloy body and nickel-plated steel cam handle the repeated daily cycles that an office drawer or a vending machine door goes through far better than a pressed metal barrel, and the flat key format is easy to duplicate at any hardware counter when a spare is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFitting is a three-step job that most people complete with a screwdriver and a drill. Mark the centre point on the panel, drill to the barrel diameter, insert the lock and bend the cam fixing tab into place so the barrel cannot rotate in the hole. Measure the panel first and choose the barrel length that leaves the cam sitting just behind the inner face, because a barrel that is too long leaves the cam floating and one that is too short will not reach the catch at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSecurity is not only about keeping people out. It is about knowing exactly who can get in.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003chr style=\"margin: 20px 0; border: 0; border-top: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-features\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style: none; padding: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e✦ Zinc alloy lock body with a nickel-plated steel cam for smooth, repeatable rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e✦ Five barrel lengths from 16 mm to 38 mm to match panel thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e✦ Supplied as one lock with two flat keys in each set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e✦ Keyed-alike and key-different combinations across a range of more than 500 key codes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e✦ Cabinet-grade construction suited to daily open and close cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e✦ Suitable for mailbox, filing cabinet, tool box, locker and vending applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e✦ Compact PP bag packaging with a 150 to 200 gram net weight per set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003chr style=\"margin: 20px 0; border: 0; border-top: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style: none; padding: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel family:\u003c\/strong\u003e HJ02\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zinc alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCam material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Steel, nickel plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLock type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cabinet cam lock, flat key\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBarrel lengths:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm, 38 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey combination:\u003c\/strong\u003e Over 500 available codes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKeys supplied:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two flat keys per set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging:\u003c\/strong\u003e PP bag, one lock and two keys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNet weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 150 to 200 g per bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplications:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mailbox, cabinet, tool box, locker, pay phone, kiosk, vending machine, safety box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDIY use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Metalworking, furniture, enclosure fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nickel-plated cam, zinc body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003chr style=\"margin: 20px 0; border: 0; border-top: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-applications\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere It Belongs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cam lock is the standard fastener anywhere a panel has to open for one person and stay shut for everyone else. That covers office filing cabinets, workshop tool chests, retail display cases, apartment letterboxes and hotel minibar doors. It is also the lock that gets fitted into equipment housings, kiosks, vending machines and ATM enclosures, because the format is common enough that replacement keys and matching barrels are never a problem. Buying the near side of the model range as one order is how a whole installation ends up under a single key.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003chr style=\"margin: 20px 0; border: 0; border-top: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How do I know which length to order?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Measure the panel thickness, not the visible barrel.
