The cam lock was invented in 1985 and is used frequently in modern cabinet construction as well as windows, drawers, and filing cabinets. Typically, cam locks consist of a component that rotates 90 or 180 degrees when a key or screw is inserted. When the pieces are fitted together and the key is tightened, this secures the pieces together.
