COMPX NATIONAL

3G Electric supplies COMPX NATIONAL cam locks in both combination and keyed versions. Combination cam locks are zinc die-cast with a chrome-plated finish and a 1 15/16 in straight cam, and they are used to secure cabinets, lockers, and enclosures. Keyed cam locks are also zinc die-cast, with a nickel finish and quarter-turn clockwise unlock operation. Keyed-alike models use a specific key code, such as C415A, so multiple locks can be opened with the same key. When ordering, match the key code to your existing system if you need compatibility. The catalog includes multiple SKUs with different key codes and cam lengths.

COMPX NATIONAL deadbolt cabinet and drawer locks are designed for mounting on cabinets and drawers, and they are available in vertical and vertical diamond configurations with body dimensions such as 7/8 in by 7/8 in or 1 27/64 in by 2 1/8 in. Mortise deadbolts are intended for doors, with models for door thicknesses up to 7/8 in and up to 1 3/8 in. Mortise models may include a conventional core cylinder and can be ADA compliant. Selection depends on the mounting surface, door thickness, and whether you need keyed-alike, keyed-different, or master-keyed operation. Check the body dimensions and door thickness range before ordering.

For COMPX NATIONAL locks, the key code identifies which key opens a specific lock. If you are adding a lock to an existing system, the key code of the new lock must match the code of the locks already in use to be compatible. For example, a cam lock with key code C415A will operate with the same key as other C415A locks. Keyed-alike locks share a code, while keyed-different locks do not. Master-keyed locks allow a master key to open multiple locks while individual keys may still operate specific locks. Always confirm the key code and keying arrangement before ordering replacement or additional locks.

Some COMPX NATIONAL mortise deadbolt models are ADA compliant, including the C8133-KD-26D and C8179-107-4. These models include a conventional core cylinder with core and have no keyway and no visual indicator. They are not ligature-resistant. The C8133-KD-26D is for doors up to 7/8 in thick with a satin chromium-plated finish, while the C8179-107-4 is for doors up to 1 3/8 in thick with a satin brass finish and clear coating. ADA compliance is a specification to verify against your project requirements. Check the individual product data for compliance attributes before specifying.

COMPX NATIONAL locking hardware uses materials such as zinc die-cast and brass. Finishes include chrome plating, nickel plating, satin chromium plating, and satin brass with clear coating. For example, combination cam locks are zinc die-cast with a chrome-plated finish, keyed cam locks are zinc die-cast with a nickel finish, and some deadbolt cabinet locks have a brass body with a gold finish. Mortise deadbolts are available in satin chromium-plated or satin brass with clear coated finishes. Material and finish affect corrosion resistance and appearance, so match them to the environment and the existing hardware on the equipment or facility.

Yes, 3G Electric supplies COMPX NATIONAL locks with master keying options. For example, the C8803-MKKD-3 is a master-keyed vertical diamond deadbolt for cabinet and drawer applications, with a body height of 1 27/64 in and a body width of 2 1/8 in. Master keying allows a single master key to open multiple locks while individual keys may still operate specific locks. This is useful when you need keyed-alike convenience across multiple units but also require supervisory access. When ordering, specify the keying arrangement and any existing key codes so the new locks integrate with your system.
