Does the lock have an "outside" latch or some type of access? If so, how does it work?

The outside access is through a flat head screw which a coin/kitchen knife can turn, I like this type of outside access as is it great for privacy.

There is no locking mechanism. It has a spring loaded latch either up or down

There's no lock but there is a removable solid plastic panel for the inside of the door. With the panel in place nothing can go through. It is not removable from the outside as far as I can tell.

No, this doesn't have any lock. This is meant for a door that has a separate deadbolt. I went with a remote control/ electronic deadbolt.

No. The beauty of this product is that nothing shows on the outside. When you want to open the door/drawer you simply place the magnet on the outside of the door in the area where the lock is on the inside and the magnet unlocks the lock. Its that simple.

Just saw Caesar's answer..I bought this for my son and he has never had it lock back when out..something he told me he wished it did. That was the basis of my original answer

The 2 latches have a hole that will take a padlock. I've had 4 of these boxes for my different quads and I am sold on them. Very happy with mine.

No, it does not have a locking device. We had to return ours after our first use due to the latches coming apart.

It does not have a latch nor does it have any catch or other mechanism. It is a sturdy lid that you could put a brick or other heavier object of you wanted to ensure it would stay shut. Otherwise I think you would be OK with this, unless you are trying to keep bears out or something. =)

The one I got does, and a lock. It's now used to control the solar lights on our deck. It's been in use for over a year now in southern Mo., and has stayed dry inside.

I need to clarify my answer....there are three latches on the front of the case, one directly under the handle. The two outboard latches have integral locks.

Yes, this latch does have a place for a bolt or lock to prevent it from opening.

No lock. The ones I found online that did have a lock had repeated reviews of the locks not working.

The lock does not physically lock or unlock itself at all. It provides the ability for the *person* to provide the turning of the knob to lock or unlock from the outside. Without punching in the correct code, the outside knob just spins freely - it won't unlock. That said, if the lock is locked, and you punch in the correct code from the outside but don't turn the knob, it will automatically revert back to a free spinning knob in a few seconds - essentially keeping the door locked. If you are looking for it to automatically lock behind you after you close the door, this lock will not do that - it's designed to have the person do the turning of the lock knob to lock or unlock it.

No, it just latches. You can "set" it to remain unlatched with a hex key from the inside, but there is no typical key to lock the door.

Mine came with no locks, it has the posts that stick through the latch where I can use my own locks. But the current picture looks different than mine (in the area of the latches and locks), it looks like there is a key hole and no posts that stick through the latch.
