Features
5 mm Spacer Plate for Classic Coin Locks
This 5 mm cast-acrylic spacer plate is used when a Classic coin lock requires additional spacing between the lock body and the locker door.
The spacer helps position the lock correctly during installation or replacement. For the compatible Helmsman fitting described on this page, two spacer plates are required for each lock.
Confirm the locker manufacturer, lock model and existing door arrangement before ordering. Similar-looking coin locks may use different fixing dimensions or spacing requirements.
What Does the Spacer Plate Do?
A spacer plate increases the distance between the coin-lock body and the locker door. It may be required where the door construction, lock fixing or existing installation prevents the lock from sitting in the correct position without additional spacing.
| Installation issue | Role of the spacer |
|---|---|
| Lock sits too close to the door | Provides additional separation between the lock body and door |
| Existing fitting uses spacer plates | Allows the replacement lock to reproduce the established fitting arrangement |
| Compatible Helmsman installation | Two 5 mm plates provide the spacing required for the fitting described on this page |
| Replacement or refurbishment work | Provides a replacement for missing or damaged spacer plates |
Check Coin-Lock Compatibility
Do not select the spacer by appearance alone. Classic coin locks can be fitted to different locker doors and may use different mounting arrangements.
| Check | Information required |
|---|---|
| Locker manufacturer | Identify the locker brand, including whether it is a Helmsman locker |
| Lock type | Confirm that the installed or replacement lock is a compatible Classic coin lock |
| Existing spacer arrangement | Record the number and thickness of any plates already fitted |
| Door construction | Check the door material, thickness and lock mounting position |
| Fixing dimensions | Compare the plate and lock-fixing dimensions with the existing installation |
| Photographs | Provide clear front, rear and side photographs where identification is uncertain |
How Many Spacer Plates Are Required?
For the compatible Helmsman fitting described on this page, order two spacer plates for each coin lock.
| Number of locks | Spacer plates required |
|---|---|
| 1 lock | 2 spacer plates |
| 5 locks | 10 spacer plates |
| 10 locks | 20 spacer plates |
| 25 locks | 50 spacer plates |
Confirm the required quantity before ordering where the existing installation differs from the Helmsman arrangement shown.
Fitting and Replacement Checks
- Inspect the existing installation: record the position and number of any spacer plates before removing the lock.
- Compare the replacement components: check that the lock and spacer match the original fixing arrangement.
- Position the plates correctly: reproduce the established spacing and alignment.
- Tighten the fixing carefully: secure the lock without overtightening or damaging the acrylic plate.
- Test the lock: check the key, coin mechanism, latch and door operation before returning the locker to use.
Where the original fitting is incomplete or the lock cannot be identified, provide photographs and measurements before ordering replacement parts.
