Unsecured valuables have a tendency to walk off by themselves. To keep items safe, Perko offers the 1085 series Surface Mount Lock. Perfect for hatches and storage compartments, the lock is ideal for use on both smooth and carpeted surfaces.

Whether replacing an existing lock handle or upgrading from a non-locking system, the surface mount units are quick and easy to install. Perko supplies clear, illustrated instructions with a handy cutout template.

The attractive and sturdy lock is available with a choice of a black, white or gray polymer body with a chrome-plated, zinc alloy "T" handle and a stainless steel stem. To fit any application, various models are available featuring different configurations and lengths of cam bars.

Designed to be mounted through surfaces from 1/8" to 3/4" thick, the lock requires a 2-1/2" cutout hole. The cam bars are adjustable to a maximum 3" from the mounting surface. Suggested retail prices of the Perko 1085 series Surface Mount Lock start at $55.00.
