Olympus Pin Tumbler Cam Lock, DCN3 1-7/16" Cylinder Keyed Alike 103, Oil Rubbed Bronze DCN3-10B-103

Olympus Pin Tumbler Cam Lock For Cabinet Security

Olympus pin tumbler cam lock, DCN3 1-7/16 inch cylinder keyed alike 103, oil rubbed bronze DCN3-10B-103 provides a keyed-alike cam lock solution using the Olympus Lock, Inc. system. The zinc die cast body and zinc die cast pin tumbler cylinder create a solid, uniform housing that supports consistent keying and day-to-day operation. Its oil rubbed bronze finish gives the lock face a darker appearance that can visually blend with similar bronze-toned hardware on cabinetry or fixtures. The N Series keyway, equivalent to National D4291 4-pin or D4292 5-pin systems, lets the lock participate in N Series masterkeyed and grand masterkeyed systems where those keyways are already in use. The standard function, with the key removable in the locked or unlocked position, allows the key to be withdrawn without changing how the cam is set.

Cam Lock Details That Support Daily Use

• The DCN3 1-7/16 inch cylinder length establishes a defined reach through typical cabinet or panel thickness, so the tumbler section extends far enough to drive cams without excess projection.
• The ability to be keyed together with other N Series locks means multiple locks can share the same key pattern, simplifying key management when several locking points follow the same N Series keyway.
• The rekeyable design via a cylinder retainer clip allows the existing cylinder setup to be reset to a different key configuration when the keying plan changes on a job or property.
• Passing ANSI/BHMA A156.11 Grade 1 performance requirements, equivalent to E07261 / E07271, shows the lock has been tested to a defined performance standard recognized for cam locks in architectural hardware.
• Woodwork Institute acknowledgement identifies the product as recognized by the WI, which supports its use in woodworking-related applications where that acknowledgment is referenced.

Cam Lock Mounting And Face Coverage Details

The 1 inch face on this Olympus pin tumbler cam lock covers splintering around the lock bore, so the installed face can visually conceal minor chipping from drilling. Because the 1 inch face covers the surrounding material, no additional trim ring is required to hide the drilled edge, which keeps the visible hardware to a single component. Two reversible cams that work in all positions allow the installer to orient the cam to engage strikes or keepers in different directions, supporting vertical or horizontal locking arrangements. The N Series keyway and the DCN3 format position this lock within Olympus cam lock families that share similar dimensional and keying characteristics.

Using This DCN3-10B-103 Cam Lock In Projects

Where This Oil Rubbed Bronze Cam Lock Fits

This DCN3-10B-103 cam lock from Olympus Lock, Inc. is part of the Locks and Latches, Cam Locks product class, aligning it with cabinet and casework locking points that use rotary cams. The oil rubbed bronze 10B finish lets it visually coordinate with other 10B-finished components in a woodworking or fixture environment that calls for darker bronze tones. Because the body and cylinder are zinc die cast, the lock presents a rigid housing appropriate for furniture, cabinetry, and similar installations where a metal-bodied cam lock is expected. The N Series keyway, equivalent to National D4291 4-pin or D4292 5-pin systems, ties the lock into N Series keying systems in commercial or institutional projects that already follow this keyway convention.

How Keying And Cams Support Repeatable Results

The Olympus pin tumbler cam lock supports keying flexibility by offering stock keying as KD/KA 4-pin standard with stock KA numbers 101, 103, 107, and 915, so projects can follow known keyed-different or keyed-alike patterns. The product is masterkeyed as 5 pin standard with grand masterkeyed capability, which lets the same lock format participate in tiered key hierarchies in larger installations. Keying that can be matched with other N Series locks allows multiple lock points on the same N Series system to be planned under a single keying structure. Two reversible cams that work in all positions allow the cam orientation to be set to pull or push against strikes in several directions, which supports repeatable layouts across banks of doors or drawers. The key removable in locked or unlocked position function permits the key to be withdrawn after setting the cam in either state, helping maintain a consistent routine whether the hardware is being locked or unlocked in daily use.
