Product Information
Full details
The XiangJunly Universal Security Locks are an essential hardware solution for homeowners and office managers looking to add a layer of security to their furniture and storage units. These locks are ideal for securing cabinets, mailboxes, drawers, and cupboards, providing reliable access control for sensitive documents or personal belongings. While they offer excellent peace of mind for standard material thicknesses up to 12mm, they are specifically designed for lighter-duty furniture and are not intended for high-security exterior entry doors.

FAQs
Are all 6 locks keyed alike?
The set is designed for convenience; typically, in these kits, the keys are keyed alike, allowing one key to potentially operate all locks in the set.
Can I use these on a 15mm thick board?
No, these locks are designed for material thicknesses up to 12mm. Attempting to use them on thicker material will prevent the cam from engaging properly.
What tools are needed for installation?
You will need a drill with an 18mm hole saw or spade bit (if a hole doesn't exist) and a screwdriver to tighten the fastening screw.
Is the finish weather-resistant?
The silver finish is durable for indoor use, such as cabinets or drawers. It is not recommended for outdoor environments exposed to rain or salt air.
What is the diameter of the lock?
The standard diameter for these locks is 18mm, fitting a hole of the same size.
Troubleshooting
Key does not turn smoothly
Ensure the lock is not mounted too tightly, which can distort the cylinder housing. Loosen the rear fastening nut slightly.
Lock head spins in the hole
Check that the mounting hole is exactly 18mm. If the hole is too large, use a spacer or washer to stabilize the lock base.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Comprehensive set of 6 locks for multiple furniture pieces
- Easy-to-follow installation process requiring minimal tools
- Compact and unobtrusive silver finish
- Two keys included for every lock provided
Cons
- Not suitable for doors or materials thicker than 12mm
- Standardized keying may not offer high-security restricted access
- Requires manual drilling if a mounting hole is not already present
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is a straightforward process:
- Measure the existing hole diameter to ensure it matches the 18mm lock requirement.
- Insert the lock head through the hole from the front side.
- Position the cam on the backside and secure it using the provided fastening screw.
- Test the turning motion with the key before fully tightening the assembly.
To maintain the locks, keep them free of dust and debris. If the mechanism becomes stiff over time, a small amount of graphite lubricant can be applied to the keyway to ensure smooth operation. Avoid using heavy oils or silicone sprays, as these can attract dirt inside the cylinder.
