Alarm Controls CL-3 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Alarm Controls CL-3 cam lock come with keys, and are multiples keyed alike?
Two single bitted flat keys ship with each CL-3, and they're keyed alike. That matters if you're outfitting several enclosures: order multiple CL-3 locks and your techs carry one key for the lot rather than a ring per panel.
2) What does the CL-3 cam lock actually secure?
It's the lock that keeps a control panel cover closed so nobody gets into the board. Steel, chrome plated, with a 1 inch cam that rotates behind the cover lip to hold it shut. It's a tamper deterrent on the enclosure, not a door lock.
3) How does the CL-3 mount to a panel cover - do I need a nut on the back?
A speed clip is what holds it. The lock body drops through the hole in the panel cover and the clip pushes on from behind to secure it, so there's no threaded ring to chase down in a tight enclosure.
4) Can I buy Alarm Controls CL-3 cam locks in bulk for a multi-building rollout?
Yes. Besides the single, Alarm Controls offers the CL-3 (50), a multi pack of 50 of the same lock. That's the one to quote when you're standardizing panel keys across a portfolio of sites.
5) Is the CL-3 a high security lock or just a tamper deterrent?
Treat it as a tamper deterrent. It uses a single bitted flat key, which is a simple wafer-style key, so it stops casual access to a control panel but it isn't a restricted or high security keyway. For a genuinely secured enclosure you want the cabinet itself in a locked room or a keyed-restricted cylinder application.
6) Is the CL-3 cam lock rated for commercial use?
It's a commercial-duty part, catalogued by Alarm Controls for access control enclosures. Steel construction with chrome plating gives it the corrosion resistance you want on a panel that lives in a mechanical room or an electrical closet.
