A cam lock is a mechanism commonly used in lockers. These use an L-shaped piece that twists around the locker door, allowing it to be opened and shut. These are generally easy to install and provide a level of security that is relevant for everyday use.

Replacement Cam Locks & Keys for Lockers

Q: How does a locker lock work?

Commonly locker locks use a cam lock, which uses a flat metal piece that rotates when the lock is turned, securing or releasing the lock. Combination and digital locks are also available, where inputting a code gives access to the locker. In the same way, coin operated locks give the user a key once they have placed a coin into the mechanism.

Q: How do you lock a locker?

How you lock a locker depends on the lock mechanism that it has. Lockers with digital and dial mechanisms just need to be shut after pre-entering a code. In contrast, traditional lockers and coin operated lockers usually need a key to be turned in the lock after closing.
