Description
Olympus DCN4 Cam Lock For N Series Keying
Olympus DCN4 pin tumbler cam lock gives a keyed alike 107 solution that keeps multiple lock points on the same key, which simplifies key control for cabinets and casework using an N Series keyway. The lock is designed for 1-1/2 inch material thickness with a 3/4 inch bore diameter, so it suits thicker panels where standard cam locks do not reach reliably. Zinc die cast construction for both body and cylinder provides a solid housing that supports consistent cam action in everyday commercial or shop environments. The 1 inch face is sized to cover splintering around the bore, which helps leave a clean finished look on woodwork without an extra trim ring step. The standard function keeps the key removable in either locked or unlocked position, giving flexibility for service access or shared key sets in cabinet runs.
Key Details That Support Daily Locking Tasks
- Can be keyed together with other N Series locks, which allows one N Series key system to operate multiple lock locations across a project.
- Easily rekeyable via a cylinder retainer clip, so core changes or keying adjustments can be handled without replacing the entire cam lock body.
- Passed ANSI/BHMA A156.11 Grade 1 performance requirements, giving a tested performance level for demanding woodwork and cabinetry applications.
- Body and cylinder are zinc die cast, providing a consistent pin tumbler housing that supports repeatable key action over time.
- Uses an N Series keyway equivalent to National D4291 4-pin or D4292 5-pin systems, helping align with existing N Series master key systems.
- Standard keying is KD or KA with 4-pin configuration and stock KA 107 among others, giving a defined keyed alike option for grouped locks.
Cam Lock Fit, Face Coverage, And Cam Action
The Olympus Lock, Inc. DCN4-26D-107 is built for 1-1/2 inch material thickness with a 3/4 inch bore diameter, so it extends correctly through thicker cabinet or casework fronts commonly used in commercial installations. A 1 inch face covers splintering at the drilled hole, which helps maintain an acceptable reveal after boring without adding a trim ring operation. Two reversible cams work in all positions, giving cam throw flexibility for different door or drawer directions when laying out hardware. The standard function of key removable in locked or unlocked position allows shared keys to be taken away regardless of locking state, which supports maintenance or facility key management practices.
How This N Series Cam Lock Works In Projects
Using The DCN4 Cam Lock In Cabinetry And Woodwork
The Olympus DCN4 pin tumbler cam lock uses an N Series keyway that is equivalent to National D4291 4-pin or D4292 5-pin systems, which ties directly into N Series based cabinet and fixture projects. Keying that can be set as KD or KA with 4-pin standard and stock KA 107 gives clear options for separating or grouping access on casework runs. The 1-1/2 inch material thickness rating with a 3/4 inch bore diameter means this lock fits thicker wooden doors or panels commonly found in commercial millwork, where shorter cylinders are not suitable. The 1 inch face helps hide minor tear-out from drilling, which is useful on visible cabinetry faces where appearance matters. Passing ANSI/BHMA A156.11 Grade 1 performance requirements provides a defined performance level for woodwork installations that see frequent operation.
Keying, Rekeying, And Cam Position For Consistent Results
The DCN4-26D-107 version is keyed alike 107 within the stock KA range of 101, 103, 107, and 915, so multiple locks can share KA 107 where consistent access is required across several openings. Rekeyable construction via a cylinder retainer clip lets keying be changed while the main cam lock body stays in the door or drawer, which supports field rekeying without a full hardware change. Masterkeyed operation is 5-pin standard, and grand masterkeyed sets are available within the system, allowing this cam lock to participate in tiered N Series key schedules. Two reversible cams that work in all positions give flexibility in setting up the cam throw direction and angle, which is useful when matching existing strikes or latch plates in different cabinet layouts. Zinc die cast body and pin tumbler cylinder support smooth pin alignment, helping maintain consistent key turning as locks are cycled over time.
