DELTA LOCK
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about DELTA LOCK from 3G Electric.
What types of interchangeable core systems are compatible with DELTA LOCK deadbolt locks?
DELTA LOCK deadbolt locks, such as the G DI1125D500BCMV1 and G DI1125D500BCMI1, are designed for Small Format Interchangeable Core (SFIC) systems. SFIC is a standardized core format that allows quick rekeying by replacing the core without removing the lock body. These locks accept SFIC cores from various manufacturers, provided they meet the SFIC dimensional standards. The locks are available in vertical and inverted configurations, with rectangular bodies and chrome-plated finishes.
What finishes are available for DELTA LOCK cabinet and drawer locks?
DELTA LOCK deadbolt locks and cam locks are commonly offered in a chrome-plated finish, as seen in models like the G DI1125D500BCMV1 and G DI1125D500BCMI1. Chrome plating provides corrosion resistance and a durable surface suitable for indoor industrial and commercial environments. Other finishes may be available depending on the specific product line, but the catalog data primarily indicates chrome-plated options for the deadbolt series.
Are DELTA LOCK spacers compatible with other lock brands?
DELTA LOCK spacers, such as the G DI MINI SPAC 0500 SC and G DI MINI SPAC 0125 SC, are designed for use with DELTA LOCK deadbolt and latchbolt locks. They are compatible with specific OEM part numbers (e.g., 31NG78 and 4YF90) and manufacturer model numbers like L1000. While the spacers are intended for DELTA LOCK products, their dimensions may allow use with other brands that share similar mounting hole patterns and thickness requirements, but compatibility should be verified against the lock body specifications.
What is the difference between vertical and inverted deadbolt configurations in DELTA LOCK products?
DELTA LOCK offers deadbolt locks in vertical and inverted configurations. Vertical deadbolts (e.g., G DI1125D500BCMV1) have the bolt oriented upward when locked, while inverted deadbolts (e.g., G DI1125D500BCMI1 and G DI1125D500BCRI1) have the bolt oriented downward. The choice depends on the cabinet or drawer design and the direction of the locking mechanism. Both configurations use the same body dimensions (2 5/32 in height, 2 1/2 in width) and SFIC compatibility.
Can DELTA LOCK cam locks be used as replacements for existing cam locks in industrial enclosures?
Yes, DELTA LOCK disc tumbler keyed cam locks, such as the G CR1125-G, are designed for use in cabinets, drawers, and enclosures. They are keyed and operate with a disc tumbler mechanism. The G AU CR BRACKET PC KIT is a mounting bracket kit that may be required for installation on certain panel types. These cam locks are suitable as replacements if the existing lock has similar dimensions and mounting requirements. Verify the cam length and backset to ensure proper fit.
