800 Schlage C Keyway Pin Tumbler Deadbolt Drawer Lock, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Keyed to O-Bit Key, Cylinder Length 1-1/8"

Schlage C Keyway Deadbolt Drawer Lock For Secure Cabinets

Schlage C keyway deadbolt drawer lock from Olympus Lock, Inc. uses a Schlage C keyway and pin tumbler design, so it provides a familiar key system for shops already standardized on Schlage C cylinders. The cylinder length of 1-1/8 inch suits drawer and casework layouts that are built around this common dimension, helping installations line up cleanly with existing boring patterns. The lock is keyed to an O-Bit key, giving a defined keying arrangement for projects specified to that key code. An oil rubbed bronze finish provides a dark, traditional appearance that matches casework and hardware finished in similar bronze tones. As a deadbolt drawer lock in the Deadbolt Locks product class, it delivers positive bolt engagement for drawers where a simple catch is not sufficient.

Key Function, Rekeying, And Grade 1 Performance Details

• The set screw cylinder release mechanism allows the cylinder to be easily rekeyable, so locksmiths and shop personnel can change keying in the field without replacing the entire body, which saves labor and preserves installed hardware.
• The lock can be keyed together with other Schlage C keyway locks, allowing multiple drawers or cabinets to operate from the same Schlage C system, which simplifies key management on larger casework runs.
• The product passed ANSI/BHMA A156.11 Grade 1 performance requirements, so it meets a defined benchmark for deadbolt lock performance, which supports use where higher cycle and strength performance are specified.
• The key is removable in the locked or unlocked position, allowing the user to remove the key after either operation, which supports workflows where drawers need to remain either secured or accessible without leaving the key in the cylinder.
• The standard function locks are non-handed, so a single part number works on left- or right-hand drawer orientations, which streamlines ordering and simplifies shop stocking for varying cabinet layouts.

Deadbolt Drawer Lock Materials And Installation Fit

The lock body is made from zinc die cast, providing a rigid housing that supports the deadbolt action in a compact form suitable for drawer construction. The solid brass cylinder offers a robust keying component with the machining precision expected from brass lock cylinders, which supports smooth key operation over time. With a 1-1/8 inch barrel length, the cylinder dimension works with drawer fronts bored for that specific length, so the face of the lock can sit properly relative to the drawer surface. For 1-1/8 inch barrel length locks, 10-350 plastic spacers and two 10-350 units are specified, which helps installers adapt the lock position relative to panel thickness where needed.

How This Olympus Deadbolt Drawer Lock Works In Practice

Deadbolt Drawer Lock Use In Woodworking And Casework

This 800 Schlage C keyway pin tumbler deadbolt drawer lock from Olympus Lock, Inc. fits into Deadbolt Locks applications where drawers or similar compartments require a deadbolt action rather than a spring latch. Being categorized under Locks and Latches and Deadbolt Locks, it is suited to casework where a positive bolt throw secures the drawer front to a strike component. The oil rubbed bronze finish gives the hardware a coordinated appearance alongside other bronze-finished components on cabinets or furniture, which supports visually consistent projects. As a non-handed standard function lock, it installs on either side orientation of a drawer run without different part numbers, which simplifies layout when drawers change orientation across a project.

The lock will accept other manufacturer's Schlage compatible key-in-knob cylinders, so facilities using Schlage compatible key-in-knob systems can fit those cylinders into this Olympus lock body for keyed system consistency. Because the key is removable in both locked and unlocked positions, drawers can be left in the desired state while the key remains under separate control, which suits environments where multiple users need access at different times. The ability to be keyed together with other Schlage C keyway locks lets this drawer lock participate in a larger keyed-alike or master-keyed arrangement using the Schlage C keyway, helping align furniture or fixture locks with door hardware systems that already use that keyway.

Rekeyable Cylinder Design And Performance Grade Advantages

The easily rekeyable design via a set screw cylinder release mechanism provides a practical advantage when projects change occupants or key levels over time, because the cylinder can be rekeyed or swapped without disturbing the zinc die cast body installed in the drawer. That zinc die cast body and solid brass cylinder combination gives a balance of structural support and precise keying surfaces, which contributes to consistent key turning feel during daily use. Passing ANSI/BHMA A156.11 Grade 1 performance requirements indicates that the lock has been tested to a recognized standard for deadbolt performance, supporting its use where specified Grade 1 performance is required by plans or hardware schedules. Since the lock is keyed to an O-Bit key while using the Schlage C keyway, it aligns with O-Bit keyed projects and Schlage C system layouts, so specifiers can call out that specific combination when coordinating with other locks. The 1-1/8 inch cylinder length allows the deadbolt drawer lock to integrate into drawer fronts drilled for that depth, which supports accurate alignment with the designated bar strike components in the system.
