My work desk (which looks similar to the above) has two pull out drawers on the right that I wish I could lock, but can't. As you can see they just have handles in the middle and no key locks.

Anyone have any suggestions to how I could possibly set up something to lock them?

I trust everyone I work with. Our GM is in the office all the time and our office is locked when no one is in it. But I would like to leave some stuff in it when not around and feel the added protection would help prevent a theft.

Thanks!

 

 

seriously. why not use some sort of rope and combo lock to lock the two drawers together. then they might be able to pull the drawers out as one but not be able to get to the stuff in the bottom drawer because it would be covered by the top drawer...if that makes sense. h:

 

i was thinkin go through all the handles and wrap the chain around the back like twice h:

 

They make locks for just what you need. I dont know of a specific kit, but they exist. The 2 drawers on my desk locked...but its OEM

 

you can get those at home depot....drill a hole, cut a slot, screw it in.

I don't know if they will let me drill holes in my desk h:

yeah most companies aren't happy when you make holes in their stuff
