Notice board type locks.

[Boat&Bikes]

Looking for something like these but different size. Any ideas please? Saw a boat today that had what looked like these locking the front locker covers down.

don't use those round-keyed cam locks like you find on fruit machine's etc. if you want it to be secure, they can be opened with the barrel of a pen

and yes, I do know this from experience.

Locks for lockers (the metal box / cabinet type used in changing rooms)

[pearley]

Theyvrely on you cutting a perfect hole which is not round.

[AllanC]

Yes the hole would have to be drilled small then filed to shape. Could be a long process with thick steel. Its more like a square hole with 2 opposite sides rounded.

[pearley]

Yes. Amongst other things I used to fit slamlocks and deadlocks to vans. The slamlocks required a similar hole but at least had 2 roll pins o gkbinto holes tk stol thd lock being twisted. Was made much easier when the manufacturer introduced a special punch.

Don't know how I hit the submit button without noticing the gobbledygook.  In defence I've only had this tablet 2 days.

On another point, how do I get rid of that box that appears in the bottom right corner that says 'mobile chat'? It sits right over the submit button.

Select it then hit the spanner icon then turn it off (3rd? Button down). 

It will return eventually so get used to doing this.

Thanks. Cabinet locks, now I know what I'm looking for.

Try RS they have a  range  of panel locks that are of this type. They all need to be fitted in a double d shaped hole to stop the lock body rotating.
