Abstract: A storage system utilizing both shelving and drawers mounted between supports in which the drawers may be locked individually or in concert for security purposes. The shelves are mounted to the support members above a number of drawers slidably mounted between the support members. A locking channel, adjustable in length to accommodate the number of drawers desired, is slidably mounted within a similarly adjustable housing at the rear of the storage system to engage operatively pawls mounted at the rear of the drawers. The locking channel is moved vertically by a spring-biased locking mechanism causing openings in the locking channel to come into proper alignment so that the locking channel engages the pawls to lock the drawers in concert or disengages from the pawls to unlock the drawers in concert. The angular design of the pawl arms allows drawers remaining open during the locking procedure to be individually closed and locked thereafter.
