    Just picked up my first arcade and there are no keys. It is a 2005 Golden Tee complete. I could easily drill the locks. I see my local Home Depot has Cam locks in stock and cheap. What size do I need? The options are 5/8ths (inch), 1 1/8th, or 1 5/8ths... I think its probably 1 1/8ths but have no arcades for reference and see conflicting info online. Thanks!

    Once you drill the lock. Measure it.

    Probably 7/8" long.

    I've have found that one size does not apply to all games. I use these locks from Amazon, they offer different sizes and you cant beat the price. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XBR2FV7/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_47cGDbKNMBK5G

    P.s. I have found that you can add small washers to gain a little length.
