 Need to pick up a 2" stroke actuator & see if i can build a locking system for all the doors as well to keep the grandsons out of the sump area.

in my old shop I made a quick and dirty one to try it out. I just used a high torque stepper motor with a cam plate, ran a 1/2" rod the length of the cabinets, has a little "J" welded to the main rod at each door that would slide into a eye bolt, and I supported the rod every now and then with a set of sealed bearings that I pressed some pulley rings on to. was board at work and spent about 8 hour on the lathe making those. if you use an actuator, and a similar design make its a spring open or fail open or normally open, and actuate to close other wise if your power goes out your doors stay locked.

What kind of locks are they? I dont want anything on the exterior to take away from the clean smooth look, thats why I am thinking of an internal actuator. They are about the size of a loonie , but you would see them , n need one for every door, I'll post a pic in the morning.... Could be a plain B if they actuator is a pain in the butt...
