Olympus Disc Tumbler Cam Lock, 1-7/16" Cylinder Keyed Different/Master Keyed Matte Black 955-US19-MKKD

Olympus Disc Tumbler Cam Lock For Cabinets

Olympus disc tumbler cam lock gives drawers and doors a keyed security point using a 1-7/16 inch cylinder that is keyed different and master keyed, so each opening can have its own key while still fitting a master key system where required. The lock arrives with the cylinder and body assembled via a patented retainer staple, which saves bench time because the locking core is already seated in the body. This model uses a disc tumbler mechanism, which provides the key-controlled locking action that installers rely on in typical cabinet and casework applications. The cylinder length is designed so the front and frame thickness in overlay applications cannot exceed the listed cylinder dimension, which helps match the lock body to the door and frame build-up. The lock is identified as Olympus part number 955-US19-MKKD, which ties directly to the matte black finish and keying arrangement.

Key Cam Lock Details That Support The Job

• The lock passed the ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 cycle test at 20,000 cycles including key insertion and removal, showing it is designed to handle repeated daily locking and unlocking in typical cabinet use.
• A spur washer with eyelet bites into the mounting surface when screwed into place, which resists lock rotation and helps keep the fixing nut from loosening after the lock is installed in wood or panel stock.
• The revolutionary cylinder and cylinder extender design allows cylinders to be swapped between different size cam lock bodies, giving shops flexibility to change body lengths while keeping the same key system in service.
• The lock is finished in matte black, which lets the cylinder face blend with dark cabinet fronts and fixtures where a low-reflective hardware appearance is preferred.
• Custom keying typically ships direct from the manufacturer in 48-72 hours, which supports project schedules that require specific keyed different or master keyed schemes on short timelines.

Cam Lock Mounting And 90 Degree Operation

This Olympus disc tumbler cam lock is designed for a 90 degree cam turn, so the installer can position the cam to throw and retract with a quarter turn of the key for straightforward open-and-close function. The lock is specified for drawers as well as right-hand or left-hand doors, allowing the same basic body to be used across a run of casework with varying swing directions. For lipped or overlay construction, a 1-1/2 inch straight cam is used so the cam can reach past the lip and engage a strike or frame surface. For flush construction, the lock uses a 1-1/8 inch extension cam with 11/32 inch offset, matching the typical distance from the door face to the strike plane on flush cabinet work. In overlay applications, the combined thickness of the front and frame cannot exceed the listed cylinder length, which ties lock selection directly to the door build-up so the cam can still rotate freely.

Using This Cam Lock In Cabinet Projects

Where This Olympus Cam Lock Fits Best

This Olympus disc tumbler cam lock is specified for drawers and both right-hand and left-hand doors, so it can be laid out across a full bank of casework without changing lock families. The lipped and overlay construction option using the 1-1/2 inch straight cam serves doors that close over a face frame or rabbet where the cam must pass the lip to catch the frame. The flush construction option using the 1-1/8 inch extension cam with 11/32 inch offset suits slab or flush doors where the front aligns with the cabinet side, positioning the cam to grab the interior rail or strike. The matte black 955-US19-MKKD finish coordinates with darker laminate, veneer, or painted fronts, which helps the hardware sit visually quiet on commercial and residential installations.

Details That Help Keying, Alignment, And Rework

The keyed different and master keyed setup on this Olympus cam lock provides a structure where each opening has its own key while still tying into a master key, which helps facilities manage access while limiting the spread of change keys. The cylinder and body arrive assembled via the patented retainer staple, so installers can focus on boring, mounting, and cam orientation instead of building up the lock body, reducing bench handling steps. The spur washer with eyelet grips the mounting hole when the fixing nut is tightened, so the lock resists twisting in the door or drawer front under repeated key use. The revolutionary cylinder plus cylinder extender arrangement means a shop can move a cylinder between different size cam lock bodies, which helps standardize on one key system while adjusting body length to match varying material thicknesses or cabinet designs. The ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 cycle performance at 20,000 cycles of operation, including key insertion and removal, supports use in settings where frequent locking is part of daily workflow. The 90 degree cam turn simplifies user operation, since one quarter turn of the key moves the cam between locked and unlocked, which can help reduce end user confusion in multi-user environments.
