I have created two new control panels to use in a 60-1 Bally/Midway cocktail, and one of my desires was to have these CPs be able to drop down on a hinge so that I could use a quality 4/8 way switchable joystick with a restrictor plate.
I have finally conceived a design to allow the control panels to drop down without destroying the original cocktail cab, but what I need is a longer "plate" that comes with the a standard cam lock. I have no idea what this part is actually called, but it's the flat metal plate that turns with the key and allows the door/backbox/etc.. to be locked or open.
I'm going to assume that these plates are specific to their lock mechanisms due to the holes drilled in them, so my question is where can I find a lock with a plate that is maybe 2 or 2 1/2" long as opposed to the 1 5/8" on the several I have purchased.
