Salem, OR January 17 2004-—GE Supra, a division of GE Security, today announced its new QuickAccess™ keyless cam lock, which helps original equipment manufacturers and locksmiths better access the growing mechanical keyless cabinet/enclosure lock market.
QuickAccess allows OEM and locksmith customers to replace unreliable keyless or key-based mechanical locks by incorporating a camshaft for cabinet doors, desk drawers and similar applications to its patented G2 push-button lid. As a result, end users can now more reliably protect valuables, while being able to easily change combinations right at the lock, as often as needed. To open, users simply enter an authorized combination code.
"Both commercial and residential customers want more secure and dependable mechanical locks for their cabinets and enclosures. Electronic locking solutions are too expensive and difficult to install and manage, while keys are too easy to pick up and duplicate," said Greg Burge, President of GE Supra. “End users are also sick and tired of having to re-key every time an employee or vendor service changes. Using our new QuickAccess keyless cam lock, they can simply change the code.”
With the new QuickAccess push-button cam lock, manufacturers and locksmiths can create their own lines of easy-to-secure medicine chests, gun boxes, liquor cabinets, home entertainment units, courier pick-up boxes, cleaning supply cabinets, tool chests, private files, display cases, supply cabinets, petty cash drawers and other storage enclosures, bringing new value-added solutions to the market.
For increased retrofitting opportunities, the QuickAccess keyless lock’s cam shaft fits a ¾-inch standard double D configuration. It can be adjusted with spacers or different sized cams. There are two sizes – 1 ⅛-inch in length and 1 ⅝-inch in length with an offset of 5/16-inch – that are available to ship with every lock. The lock is designed for use on sheet metal panels up to .060" in thickness, but can also be adapted for use in panels up to 1 ½-inches.
The straightforward design of the compact lock also creates a new low failure rate for this class of mechanical locks. Components don’t jam, combinations work and the lock is pry-resistant because of the QuickAccess lock’s innovative clutch mechanism. It can also be used easily in low light conditions.
The new QuickAccess push-button lock is also extremely durable and resists inclement weather. With its hardy metal casing painted clay or titanium, interior components are rust-, glazed ice-, humidity-, vibration- and wear-resistant. The lock can be used in temperature extremes of -25 to +155 degrees F (-32 to +68 degrees C).
Supra is recognized as a leader in remote access and key control solutions.

When your bathroom cabinets are busting at the seams and your shelves are spilling over, it's time to get organized. Try these four easy organizing steps to bring some order to your chaos. 1. Clean and Clear
Remove everything from the drawers and cabinets. Toss out all old and unused or out of date products: Make-up, hair care, lotions, medicines (check expiration dates). Remember, "When in doubt, throw it out!" Move your medicines and vitamins to the kitchen. The moisture and heat from the bath will ruin them.
As you sort through things, take the time to evaluate whether or not you really need each item. If you have kept perfume samples, and cosmetics that are the wrong color, now is the time to throw them out or give them away. If you aren't using them why keep them?
Wipe out the cupboards and shelves. Clean off the counter top. Replace the shelf paper on the shelves and in the cabinets if needed.
2. Only the Essentials
The next step is to organize your belongings. Start by putting back only the essential items that you use every day. Put them in locations where they will be easily accessible. Try to store what you can under the sink in plastic bins. If you have the room, give each family member their own plastic bin to store their toiletries.
As you arrange your counter top, try to put out only the things that you will use on a regular basis. If you can get away without anything on the counter, that is even better. There will be less to clean.
If you have decorative items, now is the time to review their relevancy. If you don't really love them, replace them or remove them all together. There is no sense in having things you don't really love in your home; especially if you need to clean them.
3. Making Families
Categorize your shelves and drawers by creating families of like items: shaving products, hair styling, makeup, nails, personal hygiene items, first aid, medicines, etc.
4. Relocate the Excess
Make sure that only items that belong in the bathroom are in the bathroom. Transfer cleaning products to a caddy and store them under the kitchen sink. Store surplus toilet paper, shampoo and seasonal items, such as beach towels, tanning, or sunburn lotions in the hall closet or other location.
4. Storage Ideas
Make use of dead space. Try using any or all of the following organizing ideas: wall mounted cabinets, carts on wheels, hooks on back of door, shower caddies, coat rack, hanging mesh bag for holding children's bath toys, wall mount hair dryer and curling iron, drawer organizers.
Once your bathroom is organized, sit back and admire your work. If you make this an annual project, your bathroom will always be a joy to use. Now go take a bubble bath. You deserve it!
