ABSTRACT:
The specification discloses a locking system for locking a plurality of drawers or like components in desk pedestals or like components having a primary and secondary locking means movable between a first position unlocking said components and a second position locking said components, and an adjustable linkage operably connecting the primary locking means to the secondary locking means. The linkage system includes two rods adjustably connected to each other by a spring clip whereby the effective length of the linkage assembly can be varied and the first and second positions of the secondary locking means thereby adjusted. The spring clip engages a linkage rod so there is a bias force against the linkage rod preventing movement of the rod relative to the spring clip.
