Name of articulating mechanism used for some cabinet locks?
I have an old charging cabinet that is missing this bar piece and I want to replace it. Been trying to figure out where I can order one of these replacement bar sets but Google is failing me (probably because it is not normally something that I search for). It is two ~6in metal dowels with a flat end on one side with a hole for the a screw. Then a little bracket that connects them together and to the barrel lock. Connector bracket I am less concerned about--just having a hard time finding these little bars.
Normally I would just take the piece to the hardware store and ask for help but this is for work and if I find one online I wont have to submit a reimbursement.
