Compartment Locks

Just wondering if anyone has found an alternative to those silly pot-metal compartment keyed locks and twist locks. Not so much a different design as it would have to fit the holes that are already there, but a better quality lock that dosen't feel like it's gonna break off everytimg you use it. Mayby something that's all steel, not pot metal or an aluminum casting.

  • The security problem is not with the locks...it's with the compartment door itself.

    They are very thin and weak and can be compromised easily with a simple screw driver or any pry tool...doesn't matter what kind of lock you have.
