Pushlocks

Pushlocks (or ‘plunger locks’) are spring-loaded cylindrical locks with a locking pin at the rear.

Generally, these are used on sliding doors or other applications where the lock is required to prevent lateral movement.

Normally, pushlocks work on a push-to-lock/key-to-unlock principle. Pushing the lock ‘head’ moves the central barrel and the locking pin, which protrudes at the rear to lock the application. A turn of the key allows the spring-loaded barrel to ‘pop out’ to the open position and retract the locking pin. As an alternative, we also offer a key-to-lock/key-to-unlock action.

These versatile locks are used for securing display cases, cabinets, street furniture, cupboard doors, boxes, drawers, juke boxes, pool tables and many other applications.

Many of the radial pin tumbler pushlocks feature our award winning ‘Octagon’ mechanism, which makes unauthorised key duplication virtually impossible. We offer conventional 7-pin and 10-pin types for when unit cost is the primary requirement.

You also have the option of a changeable combination (or ‘reprogrammable’) type known as ‘Camatic’, which enables you to restore security quickly and easily if a key is lost or stolen.

In addition, the range includes disc tumbler pushlocks and a simple, tamper-proof, triangular drive ‘spanner lock’.

Table games

The Brief

A major US casino approached Camlock Systems because of logistical troubles when securing table games. The casino observed that dealers often needed to close a table and open another quickly as new players arrive at the game. In many cases, it took as many as 20 minutes for the key to arrive, losing impatient patrons who were unwilling to wait so long for a new table.

the Challenges

Create an aftermarket solution that works with existing chip trays
Provide a system for dealers to secure their table instantly, without keys

Camlock systems solutions

Camlock Systems' patented Slam Lock was adapted for use in all major styles of chip tray, including standard center-locking trays and dual-locking TechArt trays.

As a result, dealers can immediately close a table without waiting for a key, and the trays are locked securely in seconds. They can immediately move to other tables and get players back into action, resulting in higher customer satisfaction and increased play. Additionally, the casino found that at the end of a dealer's shift, the ability to quickly secure a table minimizes the need for dealers to accrue overtime, forced to sit at a closed table, waiting for a key to secure the chip tray contents.
