What length are back door locks generally? With all the games I've got, I haven't had to replace one yet, so I haven't measured. What for say, Defender? Or Galaxian?
 
Conflicting reports. I HATE conflicting reports.

Is that 1 1/8" with an offset cam?

Yeah. It's 7/8" usually, though I prefer 3/4" locks when you can find them. Less slop. Back door thicknesses are generally just a hair under 3/4".
 
agreed, 3/4 are a really nice fit usually. Most of my Cabs are Atari, and the back doors all work great with three quarter. I pick these barrel locks up at home depot for about six bucks.
