    Opened the package and checked contents.
    Removed the top drawer on filing cabinet, removed the knock-out for the lock, snapped the linkage on the slide bar lock, put the lock thru the hole and into the linkage, attached the lockring onto the lock and put top drawer back on. Less than 5 minutes and it was done. Works Great!!!

    I purchased this lock with my file cabinet and was not able to install it. I followed every step and it seemed simple but it would lock my files and not unlock it. I will return it for another one to see if this one was just a damaged one. Plastic piece isn't strong enough. Not that great and not that cheap either.

          Easy to install once you take the drawer out. Should have been included with the cabinet. Kinda expensive by itself to purchase.

                              No the item 556963 will not work with anything other than Staples Brand 25" File Cabinets. For Hon file cabinets you may contact Hon directly at 800-336-8398 for replacement locks.

                            I have two 4-drawer file cabinets (letter size) about 50" in height. I need replacement locks for both.
                            The name on the file is "Office Depot"
                            Will this lock work?? It appears to be comparable to what is in place now. Thank you ~

                              I apologize, I was unable to locate any information on your Filex filing cabinet. I am unable to tell if this lock will fit in your cabinet. However, this lock is meant for use with Staples Brand vertical file cabinets that are only 25".

                            I was wondering if this lock kit comes with the plastic piece that sets on the inside right of where the lock sits when you open the drawer. The plastic piece is the piece that broke.
