Hinged doors and drawers are the main elements that make up any type of furniture in metal, wood or its derivatives. Certainly there are other solutions such as shutters, flap doors, sliding doors and multiple locking systems for drawer units, but it can be said that hinged doors and drawers are the most widely adopted solution. Depending on the material chosen and the strength required for the furniture, the thickness of doors and drawers can vary considerably: from the millimeter of a metal product up to about 3 cm of thickness of a wooden piece of furniture of a certain value.

Same locks for doors and drawers: an aesthetic and practical question

To unify theaesthetics of a room or artifact on which both doors and drawers are installed, a solution to be adopted for both and on any type of material is the lock to be applied for doors and drawers with a round base. Versions are available for right door, left door, and for locking upward or downward. Fixing is done from the inside of the panel through two screws. The particular rounded shape of the base is anti-shock and anti-scratch. Maximum flexibility is also available with regard to the bolt, also known as a stake: bolts are available in different lengths, straight or cranked, with standard end plates to be combined with a strike plate (reinforcement), or trimmed (or reduced) to close by creating a recess in the cabinet body. If the standard versions in the catalog are not enough, on request we can also make customized latches to meet every need! To finish the installation, the rosette inserted on the cylinder refines the appearance of the piece of furniture, concealing any imperfections caused by making the hole in the panel.

Change keys without disassembling the lock thanks to Detachable barrels

A further innovation is the Detachable Barrel, which makes it possible to change the encryptions for security reasons or in case of lost keys, create training systems up to the GMK level, and choose from 5 different types of keys depending on the desired level of protection-all without replacing the lock or having to work on the cabinet! A simple cylinder extraction key is enough to complete the operation.
