Considering this lock to put on a drawer in my closet so I can keep jewelry in it & lock it up when the cleaning lady comes. Would it work for this?

This device needs two metal bars, one inside and one outside the door to work appropriately. I used a washer for the second bar.

Probably not. The lock is designed to be used with a strike plate on a door jam. If there is no plate to insert the long part of the lock into it will not hold properly. The lock works by trapping the door between the strike plate and the lock itself, relying on the toothed metal strip to prevent the door from sliding back. Depending on the type of drawer that you have it could catch onto something else but if it is a nice piece of furniture (and wooden) it wouldn't be advisable.

I would think so. I used it for drawer pulls on a bedroom cabinet. The only problem I had is the screws were too long for the depth of wood on the drawer and they were wobbly. I had to go to the hardware store and try to find the right size screw. Other than that, they are very cute knobs.

Martha,I don't think this will work on your application. If you can invasion a hotel room door from inside the room. This lock will only wok in situations like this. I hope this was helpful. I travel and use this lock to insure my door. Take care,

I am not sure about using this in a drawer. It works very well in a closet.

The lock will fit the hole, depending on how wide the flange around the hole is. Basically is there a lot of metal or material around the hole? These locks are quite small.

This is a entry door lock. I don't think it is designed for your application.

It might but I would not try it. The metal rod gets too hot to touch. You would have to place it in a drawer and would not be able to place items close to it. Also, if it worked for the drawer that it is in, it might not have any effect on the others. I would look for something else. Have you tried a dehumidifier near the dresser?

It may work so long as the surface is smooth and non porous. You just need to be sure to have enough space to make the two metal rings meet so the lock can be used.

I would go with no. My girlfriend whom I bought it for mainly keeps jewelry and make in there. I did however do some modification with it and added this to the side. http://www.zorotools.com/g/00130870/k-G4698251?utm_source=google_shopping&utm;_medium=cpc&utm;_campaign=Google_Shopping_Feed&kw={keyword}&gclid;=CL3O4amvrLYCFcyY4AodF1IA2g

Depending I how big the hole is for the lock to go through then yes it should be perfect.

No. This is a lovely and very useful piece of furniture, is slim, and fits into a small house or apartment, but the drawers have no locks. I have had mine for couple of years, and have enjoyed the ease of using my silver, since before, it was packed away. It has a small footprint, but holds a very surprisingly large amount of flatwear!

It certainly isn't designed to work for that. I have used Mommy's Helper Slide-Lok Bi-Fold Door Lock ( Mommy's Helper Slide-Lok Bi-Fold Door Lock ) and it works better than you would think it would from its picture.

Yes it would. This is a great lock. If you broke in you would have to use a stick of dynamite. I will buy more.

The directions say to, yes. You could probably get a couple uses out of it if your jewelry isn't too dirty.

I think it is. I have my will and legal papers in mine. For jewelry you would either want it to be in a box or line the cavity some way with fabric. I have a friend who thinks the lock is "dinky," but I like the box very much and do not use the lock anyway. I have another large box that I keep money in, and for that one I do use the lock. I think the lock on the box you are talking about is sufficient for jewelry.

I wouldn't recommend it for that purpose, this lock leaves at least an inch gap after it's fastened so it wouldn't be ideal for doors that need to be completely closed. I'd suggest looking for door knob locks or deadbolts for front doors.

I'm not sure to how to answer that question, ours came fine has the key to lock it up all together but we didn't have any problems with it, you may consider taking it to a jewelry store and have them look at it.
