Olympus Disc Tumbler Cam Lock, 1-3/4" Cylinder Keyed Alike 415, Bright Nickel 960-14A-C415A

Olympus Disc Tumbler Cam Lock For Cabinets

Olympus disc tumbler cam lock gives installers a keyed-alike solution built around the 960-14A-C415A body and cylinder. The lock is shipped with the cylinder and body assembled via a patented retainer staple, which saves bench time because the core is already seated. The bright nickel finish provides a clean, uniform appearance that suits visible cabinet, drawer, or casework installations where hardware appearance matters. The cam lock uses a 1-3/4 inch cylinder keyed alike to key number 415, so multiple locks with this keying can be operated with one key for straightforward jobsite key control. The product is classified as a cam lock in the Locks and Latches category, so it suits typical furniture, casework, and cabinetry layouts that rely on rotating cams to secure doors or drawers.

Cam Lock Details That Support Real Install Jobs

• The lock passes the ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 cycle test at 20,000 cycles, including key insertion and removal, which means it is tested to operate through repeated daily use in typical commercial or shop-built cabinetry installations.
• Lock comes assembled with the cylinder and body already connected by the patented retainer staple, reducing assembly steps at the bench and helping maintain consistent cylinder positioning across multiple units on a project.
• The spur washer with eyelet is designed so that, when screwed into place, it prevents lock rotation and keeps the fixing nut from loosening after installation, which supports long-term alignment of the cam relative to the strike.
• The revolutionary cylinder plus cylinder extender design allows cylinders to be swapped between different size cam lock bodies, increasing inventory and keying flexibility for shops that use multiple cylinder lengths across different cabinet lines.
• Custom keying typically ships direct from the manufacturer in 48-72 hours, which helps align special keying requirements with project schedules that depend on a predictable delivery window.

Mounting, Cylinder Length, And Door Construction Fit

The cam lock offers a 1-3/4 inch cylinder and a 1-7/16 inch maximum dimension referenced in the description, which guides how it fits typical panel and frame thicknesses in casework. For overlay applications, the combined thickness of the front and frame cannot exceed the cylinder length listed, so installers can match the assembly to overlay door and frame build-ups. The cam lock supports lipped or overlay construction using a 1-1/2 inch straight cam, as well as flush construction using a 1-1/8 inch extension, 11/32 inch offset cam, giving flexibility across different cabinet door styles. The 90 degree cam turn provides a simple quarter-turn operation that aligns with standard casework lock layouts where cams rotate from open to closed against a strike or frame member.

Using The Olympus Cam Lock In Cabinet Projects

Where This Cam Lock Works In Drawers And Doors

This Olympus disc tumbler cam lock is intended for drawers and right-hand or left-hand doors, which lets the same body and cam arrangement serve multiple orientations on a run of cabinets. Lipped or overlay construction using the 1-1/2 inch straight cam lets the cam reach behind the door lip or overlay to engage a frame or strike surface, supporting common Euro-style or framed cabinet builds. Flush construction using the 1-1/8 inch extension, 11/32 inch offset cam suits doors or drawers that sit in the same plane as the cabinet face, allowing the cam to reach and catch a corresponding frame section without additional brackets. The bright nickel finish coordinates with many contemporary or institutional hardware finishes, so the lock case and cylinder present a consistent look when mounted on visible faces.

Details That Help Repeatable Keying And Operation

The 1-3/4 inch cylinder keyed alike 415 means every lock with this keying can be operated by the same key, simplifying master key schedules where a single key is intended to act across several drawers or cabinet doors. The design where the cylinder and body are shipped assembled with the patented retainer staple helps maintain identical cylinder seating depth from unit to unit, which supports consistent cam throw and reduces rework when aligning strikes during a large installation. The ability to move the cylinder between different size cam lock bodies using the cylinder extender increases keying flexibility, so the same key system can span cabinets with different thickness requirements while using appropriate body sizes. The 90 degree cam turn provides a clear locked and unlocked position, which can make it easier to position strikes and stops so the cam reliably engages without over-rotation or partial engagement in everyday use.
