Never worry about cabinet doors flying open on rough seas with this marine push-button lock. Specifically designed for use on boats, it employs a spring-loaded push-button system that both latches the door and serves as the handle. When you close a cabinet door, simply push the button in – it will latch securely and remain recessed, flush with the surface. In this locked position, there’s no protruding handle. To open, press the button again and it will pop out, acting as a convenient handle to pull the door open. This clever design means that when the cabinet is closed, there’s nothing to snag on in tight quarters, and when you need access, you have a sturdy grip ready.
The lock is constructed from durable materials – a plastic body and zinc alloy components – all finished with a chrome plating that gives it a stainless-steel look and protects the metal parts from corrosion. The front knob is Ø26 mm, and the lock fits into a 26 mm diameter hole, matching the standard size for most cabinet and small hatch installations. The package includes the push-button knob, the internal latching mechanism, and a threaded trim ring that screws on from the backside of the panel to hold the lock in place and cover the cutout edges.
Use Cases and Recommendations:
- Install this lock on galley cabinets, head (bathroom) cabinets, wardrobe doors, and any storage compartment that must stay closed while underway. It will prevent unwanted openings due to waves or boat heeling.
- Excellent for sailboats and yachts where every cabinet door in the cabin needs to be reliably secured during rough weather; the flush button design also prevents crew from catching on handles in narrow passages.
- Also suitable for caravan and RV cupboards and drawers – it works on the same principle, keeping your storage secure over bumpy roads.
- Installation is simple: drill a clean Ø26 mm hole in the door (if one isn’t already provided), insert the lock from the front, align and screw on the retaining ring from the back to clamp the lock to the panel. Ensure the door’s thickness is within the lock’s capacity (usually up to ~20 mm) so it tightens properly.
- For additional trailer security (if using the lock in a camper), you can pair this cabinet lock with other latches, but often this push lock alone is enough to prevent any motion-induced opening.
With this marine push-button cabinet lock, your onboard storage will stay closed until you want it open. It’s easy to use, tough enough for the marine environment, and it enhances onboard safety by eliminating swinging doors and making access as simple as a single push when needed.
