Description
Sliding Systems’ Non Corrosive, Heavy Duty Front Locking Handle is extensively used on fire truck and special vehicle drawers (straight slide out and slide and tilt). The double D handle and push button locking mechanism is located at the centre of the drawer front in order to ensure the operator’s gloved hands are kept well away from pinch risks. Rated to 500kg, this is an efficient locking system.
The LILO version of this locking handle allows for a rear mounting of the lock mechanism and bars. Extra components are added, including a 1000mm M10 threaded bar with BZP plating, extra threaded plunger, lock and mounting blocks. All the kit needed to modify to a fully functioning LILO lock system.
The strong aluminium handle enables the operator to exert full control over the movement of what is likely to be a heavy drawer, both when opening and closing, and the locking mechanism can be installed so as to provide a slam-shut lock-in functionality for slide and tilt drawers, as well as a lock-in and lock-out function for conventional straight slide-out drawers when mounted under the drawer pan. The locking mechanism retracts the spring loaded locking bolts, which slot into the slam-shut lock blocks integrally fixed to our award winning slide and tilt front bracket.
The handle is manufactured from cast aluminium with a specialist 7200 paint treatment designed for aerospace. The rods are supplied drilled and chamferred in 304 stainless steel. The plunger release is milled aluminium for weight reduction and strength. The housing is strong aluminium channel (not plastic!) and the internal components are moulded from strong GRP. The handle is supplied as a complete assembly, not in kit form. We own all the tooling for our handles
The unit is generally supplied without an aluminium drawer front, and at a standard width of 1,500mm or 2,000mm.The user would then cut the locking bolts to their own desired width, although the system can be supplied with the locking bolts pre-cut to the user’s specified length.
HANDLE NOW AVAILABLE IN YELLOW. The drawer front is not supplied. The Heavy Duty Front Locks are available ex stock.

Original order arrived with front handle only but one call to GSF and this was promptly resolved with the correct item despatched the same day. Really refreshing to receive such great customer service. Product looks to be really great quality also.

My handles and Titan E slides arrived within 3 days of ordering. They were flown by Fedex without delay. Packing was good. Slides function smoothly and have high quality features. The handles are heavy duty and suited to more rugged uses than I am using them for. The site was also easy to use.
