Installation Guide
Transit Lock Installation Guide
| Securing a Transit lock inside a cabinet normally only requires a screwdriver. The first screw is installed with the head of the screw raised off the wood. The lock is pushed down over the head then slid back to locate it before a second screw is fitted to secure the lock in place. Then by utilizing the patented installation aid, the strike self marks it’s exact location on the door or drawer and can be fastened in place to achieve exact alignment with the lock. | ||
  |
||
|
Locks can be mounted horizontally or vertically and in cupboards they are usually positioned flush with the front edge of the cabinet. The strike is then secured to the door using the supplied screws. |
||
   |
||
| 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. | ||
   |

| A typical installation will have locks mounted in various ways inside the cabinetry. Each door or drawer that requires locking has a lock fitted and as shown the locks are mounted in both horizontal and vertical orientations. | ||

FAQ
What is YNOTLOC - Transit?
A 12VDC electromechanical lock designed for securing cupboards and drawers in vehicles.
Why use YNOTLOC - Transit?
To prevent cabinets opening while the vehicle is moving but also to make it easier and quicker to unlock and lock every cabinet. To remove the need to physically lock each individual cabinet, simply use one switch.
How does it work?
A lock is mounted inside the cabinet, a strike secured to the door or drawer, the vehicles battery supplies power to the locks via a switch. Moving the switch in one position locks the locks, while moving it to the other unlocks them all.
What makes YNOTLOC - Transit better than other products on the market?
Traditionally locking vehicle cabinets is done using mechanical push locks. Any electric systems that were used were not specifically designed for the application so YNOTLOC – Transit is a new development in this area. The key features that make the product stand out are:
- The ability to lock / unlock all cupboards and drawers from a single central point
- The ability to secure both drawers and cupboards without external fittings or damage, positioning locks at the backs of drawers to avoid compromising space or appearance
- The strength to ensure the cabinets stay closed
- The lock and strike are mounted to the internal surface of the cabinets eliminating the need to drill holes.
- Patented installation aid eliminates measuring and marking and ensures exact alignment.
Where can it be installed?
YNOTLOC – Transit is designed for use in any vehicle and has undergone a 96 hour Salt Spray Test to ensure its suitability for boats. Although the primary use is vehicles, YNOTLOC – Transit can be used anywhere that cupboards and drawers need securing and because it uses so little power it is the perfect solution where battery locks are needed.
Does it use power and if so how much?
The patented technology inside the YNOTLOC – Transit means the locks do use power, but only a very small amount. As the lock is moving from locked to unlocked or vise versa it is using power, but this only lasts for a few hundred milliseconds. Once the lock is in the locked or unlocked position the power is removed completely and there is zero load on the battery.
What if the battery is flat?
Once the battery is flat there can be no change made to the locks position, weather they are locked or unlocked. If the cabinets are secured, the battery will need to be re-charged before they can opened.
How many locks can I have?
The limit to the amount of YNOTLOC – Transit locks that can be installed is the current rating of the switch that is being used, and the wire size used to join the locks, switch and battery together. In general using a 10 Amp switch with the correct wire, will allow 30 locks to be installed.
