Bookcases & Shelving — Expert Answer
What types of locking mechanisms are available on bookcase doors?
Bookcase door locks come in several types: cam locks (the most common commercial option, keyed, with a simple 90-degree turn to lock/unlock), cam cylinder locks (same mechanism, but flush-mounted for a cleaner look), and full pin-tumbler locks with master-key capability for offices with multiple locked bookcases. Bar locks that secure all doors on a run simultaneously are available on higher-end units. Most commercial bookcases with locks are keyed to a common key so one key opens all like units — confirm this before ordering if master-keying matters to your organization.
