Best place to buy keyed alike locks for arcades?
(1/2) > >>
BLACK KNIGHT:
Where would be the best place to buy like a dozen or so keyed alike locks for my arcade cabinets?  And would I need different locks to hold the back of the cabinet on as I would for the coin doors?

I don't know if it's the *best* place, but my local RV dealer has all sorts of styles of locks that would work on arcade games, and they *all* use the same key. They also have keyless knobs that replace locks.

I pick up locks at the parts counter of my local arcade distributor. They sell much higher quality locks than those you'll find at Lowes/Home Depot, yet the price difference is trivial.

Typically cabs use a better quality lock in the coin door, as those see a lot more use than the back door lock.  When I replace them I put the good locks in the back door as well, mostly to keep everything keyed alike.

IMHO Peale's locks are much better than those at Home Depot et al.
