Product Description:
YNOTLOC - Cabinet is a high quality, low voltage electro-magnetic system for automatically securing cupboards and drawers. It does so more effectively, easily and covertly than any other product. A completely concealed system YNOTLOC – Cabinet is perfect for restricting access to desired cabinets, whether it’s keeping children safe in kitchens or securing documents in an office drawer.
The YNOTLOC - Cabinet consists of several components: A lock is mounted inside the cabinet, a strike secured to the door or drawer, a transformer to supply the power and a switch to release the lock. As the cupboard or drawer is closed, the strike automatically engages with the lock and the cabinet is secured. Unlocking is achieved by using one of two methods: A magnetic wand can be used to activate a concealed switch, or a button can be pressed.
Each door or drawer that requires securing has its own lock, but because of a daisy chain connection between the locks only one transformer is needed to supply power. This enables the locks to be fitted throughout an entire kitchen from a single power point and also allows for individual access to a cabinet or central control to all locked cabinets.
Ocular Demonstration:
Many features such as a patented installation aid and one step deactivation make the system unique, and supplied in three ready made packs complete with all the necessary components purchasing YNOTLOC – Cabinet is a very simple process.

 Master Switch Instructions |
Enclosed in the 2 Lock Starter Pack is the transformer needed to supply power to the first lock, while the second lock obtains its power via the jumper wire connecting the two locks together. Also supplied in this pack is a magnet wand which when used in conjunction with a magnetic sensor connected to a lock, activates the lock and allows access to the cabinet.
With the first two locks in place, 4 Lock Packs can be purchased and offer easy expansion of the system. Again by utilizing the jumper wires to connect the locks together, power is still supplied from the original transformer.
At any stage a Master Switch Pack can be used to give the convenience of one button access to multiple locks.
In addition to the three packs some items can be purchased separately. An Extension wire is available and can be used when connecting locks that have been spaced further apart than the supplied jumper wires will allow. A Battery can also be purchased to offer a backup system should the power fail, and a Magnet wand is available in case the original is misplaced or locked inside a drawer.

Installation Guide
Cabinet Lock Installation GuideDesigned to fit inside all cabinetry, YNOTLOC – Cabinet can be mounted in cupboards and drawers. The lock is secured inside the cabinet by using the supplied screws and the strike fitted to the door or drawer. Wiring the locks with power and switches is as simple as plug and play.
In cupboards, locks can be mounted at the top or bottom of a cabinet and are usually positioned flush with the front edge. With the locks and strikes installed the wires are concealed inside the cabinet.
Drawer installations will normally have the lock mounted behind the drawer with the strike secured to the back of the drawer box. The lock can be secured to the rear wall of the cabinet or an additional rail can be fitted and the locks installed onto it. The sensors are often positioned in behind the drawer front.
There are a large number of cabinets that have Face Frame design. Securing a lock to a face frame can be difficult because there is only a narrow edge of wood rather than a flat surface to mount to. However installation is easy with the aid of the face frame bracket that is supplied in The 2 Lock and The 4 Lock packs. In two easy steps the lock can be secured, but because mounting is done on a wooden edge, drilling small pilot holes is recommended.
First the face frame bracket is installed onto the edge.
The lock is then screwed onto the face frame bracket.
The strike and then wiring is completed as in a normal installation.
