CTech solution tackled drawers that won’t stay shut

Real jobs don't happen on perfectly level ground: From gravel pull-offs and crowned roads to sloped driveways and busy jobsites, work trucks need drawers that stay shut.  That's where MotionLatch Drawers with LocOut Technology come in.

New from CTech Manufacturing, LocOut is a patent-pending incline drawer lock designed to keep drawers securely open on uneven terrain. Engineered to work similarly to traditional stay-open slides and detents, LocOut adds a positive mechanical lock for extra confidence in the field. Now available as a new feature on CTech drawer systems, LocOut is designed to deliver dependable retention for service trucks, utility bodies, enclosed trailers, and industrial mobile workspaces.

The best way to stop drawers from sliding shut is with a positive mechanical hold-open system that locks drawers securely at full extension. Many traditional drawer systems rely on friction or basic detents that can lose effectiveness on hills, rough terrain, or under heavy loads.

Over time, drawers can drift closed when you least expect it. LocOut™ was designed to solve that problem. Built for service trucks, utility bodies, enclosed trailers, mobile workshops, and field service vehicles, LocOut provides a dedicated mechanical retention point to help keep drawers securely open on uneven terrain. The result is a safer, more reliable mobile storage solution built for real-world working conditions, according to CTech.
