CompX National pin tumbler deadbolt lock gives drawers a key-operated deadbolt action, so the drawer stays secured by a positive bolt rather than a spring latch. As a deadbolt lock in the Locks and Latches category, it suits applications where a firm mechanical lock is preferred on cabinet drawers.
The 1-3/8 inch cylinder length places the key cylinder at a working depth for many drawer fronts, helping installers align the lock body with typical drawer construction. This deadbolt lock is BHMA Certified Grade 2 with lock type designation E07042, so it follows a recognized performance standard that supports repeatable use in cabinet environments.
This model is surface mounted on drawers, which positions the housing on the internal drawer surface. It is designed specifically for drawer use, so it fits directly into a workflow where drawers need individual keyed control within cabinet runs.
The finish is described as Dull Chrome and the SAP description lists it as satin chrome, so the visible hardware has a muted chrome appearance that blends with many cabinet hardware finishes while keeping a consistent look across installations.
This drawer lock is surface mounted for drawers, so the main housing attaches to the drawer surface while the cylinder passes through a 57/64 inch diameter hole bored in the drawer front. That single bore dimension lets shops set up drilling equipment once and repeat it across similar fronts.
The cylinder length of 1-3/8 inch determines how the lock body sits relative to drawer front thickness. With that length, installers can position the cylinder so the key face is accessible on the exterior, while keeping the locking mechanism on the interior face of common drawer constructions.
The key is removable in both locked and unlocked positions. This operation detail means the key can be taken out after locking for security or removed after unlocking so drawers can stay open and accessible without leaving the key in the cylinder during normal cabinet use.
This CompX National pin tumbler deadbolt cabinet drawer lock is intended for drawers, surface mounted, so it fits into cabinet assemblies where drawer fronts already exist and the lock is added to control access. The deadbolt action secures the drawer by extending a bolt into a strike, giving a positive stop that resists casual opening when locked.
The required 57/64 inch cylinder hole guides layout on drawer fronts, letting cabinetmakers mark a consistent centerline pattern across banks of drawers. Because it is a deadbolt lock in the Deadbolt Locks product class, it serves as the primary locking point for the drawer rather than relying on a separate latch system.
This model is keyed alike and uses a pin tumbler mechanism, so locks with the same key code open with a single key. That behavior supports scenarios where multiple drawers in a cabinet, workstation, or storage run need unified keyed access while still keeping the deadbolt function on each individual drawer.
The lock will key together with all other pin tumbler locks using the D4291 key blank. This connection means that within a hardware set using that blank, installers can configure systems where drawers using this lock operate with the same key pattern as other pin tumbler locks using the same blank, helping maintain a consistent key system.
Keying options tie into master keying to GM1. Where a keyed system has a GM1 master key structure, this drawer lock can participate in that scheme, allowing individual user keys for drawers while a GM1 master key operates across locks configured under that master level.
The BHMA Certified Grade 2 rating with lock type designation E07042 gives this drawer lock a defined classification, so specifiers can call out a consistent grade in project documentation and know that the lock aligns with that recognized level within the BHMA system.
The dull chrome finish, described in the SAP description as satin chrome, sets an understated metallic appearance on the cylinder and exposed parts. That surface look allows the lock to blend with drawer pulls and hinges that use similar satin or dull chrome tones in cabinetry.
The 1-3/8 inch cylinder length supports predictable fit when drilling the 57/64 inch hole, letting installers seat the cylinder so the key face is properly exposed while the internal mechanism aligns to the drawer interior. This relationship between cylinder length and bore size helps keep locks square and consistent across multiple drawers.
The Advantage Plus feature is associated with this lock, as referenced in the product description, so this detail forms part of the model identity when selecting it from other CompX National locks that may not share the same named feature.
The note that BHMA Grade 1 version is a special order with lock type designation E07041 clarifies that this specific stocked C8179-103-26D lock corresponds to the BHMA Grade 2 version. That distinction matters when a project schedule calls for a stock Grade 2 drawer lock rather than a separate special order Grade 1 item.
The statement that not all key codes are available in all finishes highlights that key code selection is tied in part to the dull chrome finish on this model, so when selecting this finish, the available keying must match codes that exist for dull chrome in the CompX National pin tumbler range.
The CompX National pin tumbler deadbolt cabinet drawer lock is intended for drawers, surface mounted, so it is used on cabinet drawer applications where a keyed deadbolt is required.
The drawer lock requires a 57/64 inch diameter hole for the cylinder, allowing installers to plan boring operations and drilling jigs for consistent drawer front preparation.
The lock has a 1-3/8 inch cylinder length, which positions the key cylinder through typical drawer fronts so the key face is accessible while the lock body sits inside the drawer.
The key on this deadbolt drawer lock is removable in both locked and unlocked positions, so the key can be taken out whether the drawer is secured or left open for access.
The lock will key together with other pin tumbler locks using the D4291 key blank and can participate in master keying to GM1, supporting organized key systems.
The drawer lock has a dull chrome finish referenced as satin chrome and is BHMA Certified Grade 2 with lock type designation E07042, defining its appearance and classification.
The C8179-103-26D CompX National pin tumbler deadbolt lock combines a 1-3/8 inch cylinder length, 57/64 inch required bore, and BHMA Certified Grade 2 rating to support drawer locking where a defined standard is important. Its keyed alike configuration and ability to key together with other pin tumbler locks using the D4291 key blank make it practical for multi-drawer setups that share a common key. When a dull or satin chrome appearance is preferred on visible hardware, this drawer-focused, surface mounted deadbolt lock provides a coordinated option within cabinet projects.
