Olympus Disc Tumbler Cam Lock, 15/16" Cylinder Keyed Different/ Master Keyed Bright Nickel 954-14A-MKKD

Olympus Disc Tumbler Cam Lock For Cabinets

Olympus disc tumbler cam lock gives drawers and cabinet doors a keyed security point using a 15/16 inch cylinder keyed different and master keyed. This configuration lets individual users have unique keys while still maintaining master key access across a group of locks, which supports organized key control on jobs with multiple openings. The bright nickel finish provides a clean, finished appearance that blends into common cabinet hardware, so finished work looks consistent. The lock is part of the Olympus Lock, Inc. cam lock family, which keeps it inside a known product line for commercial and shop projects. As a cam lock in the locks and latches category, it is suited to securing drawers, right-hand or left-hand doors, and cabinet fronts where a rotating cam can engage the frame.

Cam Lock Details That Support Daily Use

• The lock comes assembled, which reduces bench time because the cylinder and body arrive ready to mount into the panel cutout and secure with the fixing hardware.
• The lock passed the ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 cycle test at 20,000 cycles including key insertion and removal, so it is designed to handle repeated use in typical cabinet and casework environments.
• The cylinder and body are assembled via a patented retainer staple, so the parts stay together during handling and installation, helping keep small components under control during field work.
• The design uses a revolutionary cylinder and cylinder extender system that allows cylinders to be swapped between different size cam lock bodies, giving flexibility when matching cylinder lengths to varying door or drawer thicknesses.
• Custom keying typically ships direct from the manufacturer in 48-72 hours, which supports project schedules that need specific keying patterns without long delays.
• The spur washer with eyelet is used so that, when it is screwed into place, it prevents lock rotation and keeps the fixing nut from loosening after installation, helping the lock stay correctly oriented over time.

Installation And Cam Motion For Cabinets

The 90 degree cam turn lets the installer position the cam so a quarter-turn motion moves it between the locked and unlocked positions, which simplifies aligning the cam with strikes or frames on drawers and doors. Keys are not required for assembly of the cylinder and body via the patented retainer staple, so assembly and body changes can be handled at the bench without key management steps. The cam lock is specified for drawers plus right-hand or left-hand doors, giving flexibility to use the same lock family across different cabinet layouts. For overlay applications, the combined thickness of the front and frame cannot exceed the cylinder length listed, so the cylinder length can be matched to face and frame build-ups to keep the cam engaging properly.

Using This Bright Nickel Cam Lock In Work

Cylinder And Cam Options For Cabinet Layouts

The Olympus 954-14A-MKKD cam lock uses a 15/16 inch cylinder keyed different and master keyed, so installers can plan installations where each opening is unique but still supports a master key system for maintenance. As a cam lock for drawers and right-hand or left-hand doors, it covers typical cabinet and casework situations without switching to different lock types for each opening. Lipped or overlay construction is handled with a 1-1/2 inch straight cam, giving reach past the lip so the cam can engage the frame edge or strike. Flush construction uses a cam with 1-1/8 inch extension and 11/32 inch offset, so the cam can sit correctly behind a flush door or drawer front while still rotating to catch the cabinet frame. These cam options let installers match the lock geometry to their door style so the cam meets the strike surface reliably.

Keying, Assembly, And Adjustment For Repeatable Results

The keyed different and master keyed setup allows this bright nickel cam lock to support keyed groups where user-level keys open only one location while a master key operates all, which is useful on multi-user installations. The revolutionary cylinder plus cylinder extender arrangement means cylinders can be moved between different size cam lock bodies, so a shop can adjust cylinder length for various door thicknesses without changing the key system. Because keys are not required for assembly, cylinder swaps and extender changes can be done efficiently during layout and pre-hang work. The spur washer with eyelet is designed so that, when screwed into position, it bites into the substrate to prevent the lock body from rotating, which holds the cam alignment relative to the strike over time. Passing the ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 cycle test at 20,000 cycles confirms the lock components are built for repeated cam rotation and key use, supporting long-term function in frequently used cabinets.
