Product Description
File Cabinet locks are an excellent way to secure your file cabinet contents and comply with HIPAA regulations. The simple to use, easy to install bar securely fastens to the side of any file cabinet (1/2" of space needed next to drawers). Bar has a closed end for added security and a convenient knob for easy and smooth operation. This file cabinet lock can provide a second layer of security to those units with built-in locks or, if your keys are lost, these bars can provide an easy lock replacement system without having to replace the entire cabinet. THIS ITEM REQUIRES THE USE OF A PADLOCK. A padlock is not included, but we recommend the use of an ABUS 55/40 padlock, which is available as keyed-alike and keyed-different. If using your own, make sure it is a 40mm padlock and has a 1/4" shackle diameter. All of our products are brand new and in excellent condition. We provide professional packaging, quick shipping, and friendly customer service.

It arrived promptly and was easy to install. It's a good heavy weight and feels very secure. Originally I was looking for the type that slides down the handles but that type was almost double the price and then you'd be installing and removing it each day. This is easy to open and close and you never have to store it during work hours--it stays attached. We would definitely buy this product in the future. We also bought the padlock by the same manufacturer that was recommended. It has a heavy and secure feel to it also.

This product offers excellent security for a relatively economical price.
My metal filing cabinet, purchased from a leading office supply store, was not equipped to handle a filing cabinet lock. The lock punch-out was there but was apparently for show. What to do?
I turned to Amazon for a locking bar and came across this item. The YouTube installation video sold me. I was not paying much attention to the clock, but I estimate less than 20 minutes to install. Although the locking bar ships with a drill bit, you may want to use one of higher quality. The bit broke while drilling the third hole.
I also recommend using a phillips head drive bit to secure the mounting screws.
Just need to purchase a lock for this and I am good to go!

Purchased this locking bar for a filing cabinet whose core lock got trashed. I have been using locking bars on my filign cabinets at work for years and they have wokred out great. The cabinets at work had a locksmith install the locking bars for $140 for 2 cabinets. When I saw that I could purchase these items myself and install them to save some money I was elated. The product is very well engineered and directions are well written. It took me about 30 minutes to install. You need a power drill, small drill bit, and a phillips head screwdriver. If you can drill a hole and screw a screw that is most of the job right there. Remember that it doesnt come with a lock so you must purchase it separately.

Great Lock, works just as advertised.
I would buy again. My file cabinet is out of square so I have a little hard time locking, but it locks and nobody can get in.
