Cabinet Lock 2550 is a push lock for bypass sliding doors that secures door panels at the meeting point, which helps keep contents out of reach in woodworking, shop, or residential installs. This Sugatsune America deadbolt-style cabinet lock is designed as a back-surface mount lock, so the body sits on the rear of the front door and stays clear of the opening. The counterplate is mounted on the front face of the back door, creating a positive lock-up between the two sliding doors when the bolt engages. Door thickness coverage of 13/16 inch and 1 inch lets this lock handle common cabinet and closet sliding door builds without reworking panels. A head diameter of 7/8 inch gives a compact lock face that suits tight stile layouts while still being easy to operate with the key from the front.
The back-surface mount lock design means the Cabinet Lock 2550 body sits behind the front sliding door, so installers work from the rear side for mounting while leaving only the lock head exposed at the front. With the counterplate mounted on the front face of the back door, alignment focuses on lining up the bolt path between the two panels so the push lock action seats cleanly. For locking, the instructions specify turning the key 90 degrees to the right, pushing in, then turning 90 degrees to the left before removing the key, which creates a repeatable sequence on every use. For unlocking, turning the key 90 degrees to the right causes the lock to automatically disengage and then the key is turned 90 degrees back and removed, which speeds up door access because the bolt retracts as part of the same motion.
This push lock for bypass sliding doors is suited to cabinets and enclosures that use two overlapping sliding panels, because the back-surface mount lock body sits on the rear of the front door while the counterplate attaches to the front face of the back door. In this layout, the Cabinet Lock 2550 engages across the gap between doors to hold them together, so it works where the priority is restricting access rather than latching a swinging door. The supported door thicknesses of 13/16 inch and 1 inch match widely used panel dimensions, allowing the same lock type to be applied across multiple cabinet lines built from standard stock. The 7/8 inch head diameter also helps when face framing or narrow stiles leave limited real estate, as the lock requires only a relatively small front bore.
The defined locking method - turning the key 90 degrees to the right, pushing in, then turning 90 degrees to the left and removing the key - creates a set routine, which is helpful wherever staff or users need a simple, repeatable way to secure sliding doors. That same clarity applies to unlocking: turning the key 90 degrees to the right causes the lock to automatically disengage and then the key is turned 90 degrees back and removed, which reduces extra steps when doors are opened frequently during daily work. Because the lock is described as a deadbolt lock and uses a push-in action, the engaged bolt holds position mechanically instead of depending on door tension, which supports consistent engagement even when doors see regular handling. The high-security million lock dimple key adds a keyed interface designed for secure locking, which matters wherever controlled key access is part of the cabinet or fixture plan.
Cabinet Lock 2550 is a push lock for bypass sliding doors, so it is used on cabinets or fixtures where two sliding doors overlap rather than swing.
The back-surface mount lock design places the lock body on the rear of the front door, so installers position and fasten it from the back while only the head shows from the front.
This cabinet lock is specified for door thicknesses of 13/16 inch and 1 inch, allowing it to match many common cabinet and sliding door panel builds.
Locking uses a defined sequence: turn the key 90 degrees to the right, push in, then turn the key 90 degrees to the left and remove it for a secure set.
Unlocking follows the instructions: turn the key 90 degrees to the right so the lock automatically disengages, then turn the key 90 degrees back and remove it.
The specified head diameter is 7/8 inch, which keeps the front profile compact and helps the lock fit on narrower stiles or tight cabinet layouts.
The Cabinet Lock 2550 push lock for bypass sliding doors provides a keyed deadbolt-style solution where sliding panels need a defined locked and unlocked state. With a back-surface mount lock body on the front door and a counterplate on the front face of the back door, it ties the two panels together in the locked position. Door thickness support at 13/16 inch and 1 inch and a 7/8 inch head diameter help it integrate into standard cabinet door builds and tighter face layouts. For projects needing a satin nickel Sugatsune America deadbolt lock with a clear push-lock key sequence, this model is a practical option to specify.
