| Locking down the lid of a control panel |
| << < (3/4) > >> |
| CheffoJeffo:
I used velcro on my cocktail CP boxes, but they don't experience much violence. The CP on my showcase uses a "push in" lock (basically pushes a 3/8" pin through a bracket on the lid to lock it down). The lock looks like a regular barrel lock once pushed in. Cheers. EDIT: Pictures added |

CheffoJeffo, where did you get the pushbutton? I like it a LOT! I did almost the same for my control panels. But I used wood and have two pegs that I put in. Its not too bad, but I would love to have something that didn't require finding the pegs. |

I would expect that *somebody* must stock these as they really are the only option I can think of for securing a showcase on location. Cheers. |

I decided to go with a few of those cabinet latches. I can get them discounted at work (we sell Stanely products) and I'll put one on each side. It'll add a nice professional touch. I'll give you updates on how they work out. |

I think I'm going to ditch the hook and loop fasteners and go with something like this. http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?page=1611 Doesn't get much stealthier (is that even a word?) than that. |
