File cabinets need locks to protect the important papers and files that are stored inside. Most standard file cabinet locks are rather flimsy in their design but are standard to the filing cabinets they were designed to fit. However, these locks can easily be replaced by locks that fit their specific file cabinet design and size, as well as latches with padlocks, which will confound just about any snoop.
- Chicago locks on filing cabinets are heavy steel bar locks that are small, compact and lock individual drawers. They come in a variety of sizes so they might work for filing cabinets that are a variety of sizes and widths. Chicago locks are known for being tough locks to break on filing cabinets because of the thickness and density of the lock itself. To determine the dimensions of your existing lock for your filing cabinet, remove it and look at what is stamped on the side, as that is standard on most filing cabinet locks. Then try to find a Chicago lock that matches that size.
- If you are going to install multiple locks on multiple filing cabinets, it might be a good idea to get a few lock kits. This may not only save you money and make everything easier to install, but you will also be able to have the same key for all the locks, making it easier to access materials. However, this means you need to keep a close watch on the keys that you make and distribute to employees or people who should have access to the filing cabinets. Also make sure you are ordering the correct kit based on the numbers stamped on the previous locks in your filing cabinets or based on the manufacturer's number on the filing cabinets if there were no locks to begin with.
- A padlock with a latch is one of the best ways to secure anything; it is no different when securing a file cabinet. Latches can be installed on the top drawer of the filing cabinet with bars that extend the length of the cabinet itself so that only one padlock must be installed against the latch at the top. The filing cabinet lock bar swings clear of the drawers when the padlock is removed, creating an easy way to access the drawers and secure them when everyone leaves for the day. The only downside is keeping up with the padlock when the drawers are unlocked but this should not be too difficult in an organized office.
