Coin door locks...

[Nostalgia]

Hello, Im looking for some new coin door locks for my Pacman and Pole Position cabinets. One for the Pac and 2 for the PP. Can I get these local?  Please let me know what you have and how much with shipping to 48239. Thanks!

Well I have no idea what size I need.  Is that the length your stating? Im not sure of the size for either of the doors.

Well, Im confused  I just measured the holes on my Pac coin door and I get 5/8 where the flats are and 3/4 on the other sides. None of the locks I saw seem like they would fit. What am I doing wrong?

The shape of the hole is fairly standard, the sizes you see listed are usually going to be the length, this way people can buy locks based on the thickness of their door or the location of the part of the cabinet that the lock will engage.

Here is a PDF describing some locks available at Rockler, I am sure that the locks Peale has to offer are similar in style, as would be the ones at HD.  I bet Peale's price is better than the others though, and you would be supporting a fellow "Arcadist."

If I didn't already expect to be making some purchases from other arcade sources that offer locks, I would hit Peale up for a couple myself.

The size figure refers to length.  Tell me the application and I can tell you the size.

For example, most Midway coin doors require a 1 1/8" lock.  Over/under is 7/8".

Yeh. I have a Midway Pac door, and a over/under Atari door. PM Sent Peale.

i need 2 as well, same key if possible.  Originally a Pengo cab with an over under door I think( http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?letter=&game_id=8989 )   its neat how KLOV links to eBay auctions for the game you search.

Home Depot carries these in their locks section, specifically in the area that has locks meant for for drawers and desks; they call them Cam Locks. I think they're about $2 to $3 there.
