How do I keep my coin door closed or add a lock to it?

Pages: (1/2) > >>

IceCold:

Please tell me how I could add some sort of latch or lock to this coin door.  It'd be nice if I could still open it, but not have it always swinging open...

I don't really know how coin doors are usually done, so please help me out.

Isn't that hole toward the top for a lock?

What type of lock though?  And how would I do it?(I don't have a clue  :( )  I'm very ignorant when it comes to arcade stuff, sorry.

OSCAR:

You can buy these locks at Home Depot for about $3.  You are looking for a 7/8" cam lock and are usually found in the aisle with the screen door and cabinet hardware.  If you can't find them locally, many arcade places carry these.

It's just a regular coin door lock.  They sell them at Home Depot.  I belive it's a 5/8" cylinder lock, IIRC...
