Olympus DCN1 Pin Tumbler Cam Lock, 3/4" Material Thickness, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Keyed Alike 915 - DCN1-10B-915

Olympus DCN1 Cam Lock For 3/4 Inch Panels

Olympus DCN1 pin tumbler cam lock gives secure keyed control for 3/4 inch material thickness in cabinet and fixture applications. The lock body and cylinder use zinc die cast construction, which provides a solid housing for the pin tumbler mechanism so the cam stays aligned under normal operating loads. The standard function allows the key to be removable in the locked or unlocked position, which lets installers decide whether to leave the cylinder keyed out during adjustments or daily access. Two reversible cams are designed to work in all positions, so the same lock body can operate doors or panels where the cam needs to push or pull. The 1 inch face is sized to cover splintering around the bore, so typical drill breakout on wood faces is hidden without relying on a separate trim ring.

Key Olympus DCN1 Features For Daily Use

• The zinc die cast body and zinc die cast pin tumbler cylinder form a stable, rigid unit that keeps the keyway and cam movement consistent over repeated locking and unlocking.
• The standard function with key removable in locked or unlocked position lets users remove the key after securing or opening, supporting different control practices at the jobsite or end user location.
• The 1 inch face that covers splintering hides minor drilling breakout around the hole, giving a cleaner finished appearance on cabinet or fixture fronts after installation.
• The two reversible cams that work in all positions allow the same lock to perform push or pull action, simplifying layout when the cam needs to engage a frame or strike from different directions.
• The oil rubbed bronze 10B finish provides a dark, uniform face that coordinates with other 10B-finished hardware on doors or casework for a consistent look.

Installation Details For 3/4 Inch Thick Material

This Olympus DCN1-10B-915 pin tumbler cam lock is designed for 3/4 inch material thickness, so the cylinder length and cam reach are proportioned for common cabinet and fixture stock. The 1 inch face is intended to sit flush on the outside surface, covering the drilled bore so the edge of the hole is not exposed. Because two reversible cams work in all positions, installers can orient the cam to engage strikes or edges without changing the lock body, which streamlines field layout. The N Series keyway, equivalent to National D4291 4-pin or D4292 5-pin systems, supports standard keying setups where those keyways are already in use.

Using This N Series Cam Lock In The Field

Where The Olympus DCN1 Cam Lock Fits Best

This Olympus DCN1 pin tumbler cam lock is built as a cam lock for 3/4 inch material thickness, so it suits cabinet doors, drawers, and panels made from that common stock. The oil rubbed bronze 10B finish lets it visually blend with other 10B hardware on casework or architectural millwork, which is useful when locks must match existing trim. The N Series keyway, equivalent to National D4291 4-pin or D4292 5-pin systems, allows this lock to be keyed together with other N Series locks, so facilities using that system can expand or modify locking points without changing key families. Stock keying as KD/KA 4 pin standard, with stock KA numbers 101, 103, 107, and 915, gives options for keyed different or keyed alike setups within that pin format.

The specific keyed alike 915 configuration on this DCN1-10B-915 lets multiple locks share the same 915 key number, which simplifies key control when several doors or panels need to open with one key. The product has passed ANSI/BHMA A156.11 Grade 1 performance requirements, equivalent to E07261 / E07271, which indicates it has been tested to that cam lock standard for operational cycles and performance. Woodwork Institute acknowledgment identifies it as a product recognized by that body, which supports use on projects that reference Woodwork Institute standards. These identity details matter on commercial and institutional work where specified components must match particular keyways, performance grades, and recognized product lists.

Why Rekeying, Cams, And Plates Support Workflow

This rekeyable N Series cam lock is easily rekeyable via the cylinder retainer clip, so locksmiths or maintenance teams can change keying within the N Series system without replacing the entire lock body. Masterkeyed capability at 5 pin standard, with grand masterkeyed available, means the cylinder design supports tiered key control where some keys open single locations and others open groups, which is common in multi-door facilities. Being able to key this lock together with other N Series locks allows wider masterkey systems to use a consistent keyway across furniture, cabinet, and fixture points.

The two reversible cams that work in all positions, along with the anti-rotation plate and lost-motion cam shifter described by part designations DCNP-500-ARP and DCNP-200-OCD, support stable cam alignment and controlled movement around the cylinder. The straight cam DCNP-100-SC and offset reversible cam DCNP-100-BC references identify cam shapes that can be used to reach different strikes or frames from the same lock body. These components help the cam stay oriented so the key motion reliably translates into a defined lock or unlock throw on doors or panels built from 3/4 inch stock, reducing adjustments after installation when aligning strikes or keepers.
