N Series Pin Tumbler Deadbolt Drawer Lock, Satin Chrome, Keyed to KA101 Key

N Series Deadbolt Drawer Lock For Secure Use

N Series pin tumbler deadbolt drawer lock describes a drawer deadbolt from Olympus Lock, Inc. that uses the N Series keyway, so it matches installations already set up on that key system. The lock is keyed to KA101, so drawers keyed alike on that KA number can be operated with the same key where that is required. The satin chrome finish matches jobs calling for a satin chrome look, so it fits visually with other satin chrome lock hardware on the same project. The lock belongs to the deadbolt locks product class, so the bolt action provides a positive locking point for drawers needing that function. The cylinder is available in 15/16 inch, 1-3/8 inch, or 1-5/8 inch lengths, so installers can select a length that fits the drawer or case thickness being worked on.

Key Lock Details That Support Drawer Work

• The lock body is zinc die cast, which provides a rigid housing for the cylinder during installation and everyday drawer operation.
• The cylinder is solid brass with a pin tumbler design, so the core uses a common keyed mechanism that locksmiths and shop technicians work with regularly.
• The N Series keyway is equivalent to the National D4291 4-pin or D4292 5-pin system, so it fits projects that already rely on those National key systems.
• The stock keying is KD/KA 4 pin standard, so drawers can be set up keyed different or keyed alike under standard 4-pin N Series practice.
• The stock KA numbers are 101, 103, 107, and 915, so jobs using these groups can be expanded or matched under the same key numbers.
• The lock passed ANSI/BHMA A156.11 Grade 1 performance requirements, equivalent to E07041(200DW), so it meets a recognized performance benchmark for this lock type.

Installation Function And Locking Behavior On Drawers

This Olympus deadbolt drawer lock uses a standard function where the key is removable in either the locked or unlocked position, so drawers can be left either locked or open without leaving a key in the cylinder during normal use. A version with key removable in the locked position only is available via direct ship, so projects that require the key to stay in the lock when unlocked can follow that function specification. The lock is non-handed in its standard function, so it can be applied in drawer layouts that do not all open in the same orientation without needing different handed models.

How This Olympus Drawer Lock Fits Real Jobs

Where This N Series Drawer Lock Is Applied

This satin chrome drawer deadbolt lock is designed for drawer applications where a deadbolt style lock is specified within the Olympus N Series family, so it suits woodworking installations needing keyed drawer security on that system. Being keyed to KA101 allows it to participate in keying schemes that use KA101 as a keyed-alike group, so casework or millwork with multiple drawers on KA101 can be operated with a single key number. The availability of cylinder lengths at 15/16 inch, 1-3/8 inch, or 1-5/8 inch lets installers align the cylinder choice with drawer front and side construction, so the cylinder projects correctly through the front without excess play. The 7/8 inch barrel diameter provides a defined boring size, so shop drilling operations can be set to that diameter for repeatable holes across multiple drawer fronts.

Why Lock Construction And Keying Help Workflow

The solid brass pin tumbler cylinder gives a familiar rekeying and servicing interface, so locksmiths and technicians working on N Series or National D4291 or D4292 systems can manage key changes using known methods. The set screw cylinder release mechanism supports rekeyable use, because the cylinder can be removed by backing out the set screw when a keying change is required on an existing drawer bank. Being masterkeyed in 5 pin standard with grand masterkeyed availability means projects can be organized with individual drawer keys, keyed-alike groups, and master keys under one structure, so facilities can control access levels across multiple drawer runs. Passing ANSI/BHMA A156.11 Grade 1 performance requirements, equivalent to E07041(200DW), establishes that the lock model meets that performance category, so specifiers can match written hardware schedules calling for this standard. The zinc die cast body supplies a rigid base for the cylinder and bolt components, so installation into wooden drawer members creates a stable lock housing aligned with the drilled barrel diameter.
