Setback is the distance from the edge of the door or drawer to the center of the lock cylinder, and it impacts both security and ease of use. A proper setback ensures the lock engages securely without interfering with the edge or frame. Products like the CB-280 Lock Cyl Body (9/32" setback) and CB-255 Lock Cyl Body (3/32" setback) provide options for different cabinet and furniture designs. Having multiple setback choices allows you to select the lock body that best aligns with your construction or retrofit needs.
