I bought the Camloc fasteners and receptacles for the cover panel in order to have a flush and good locking mechanism to hold the door closed. I wanted to cover the electrical bay but have easy access for viewing and inspecting the bay. The door will provide a good sized area and will have a removable fiberglass bin whicn will be held down by the door and the camlocs.
I have never installed these items before so I planned and walked slowly through a thought out sequence to get them in place and drilled in alignment.
After drilling #40 holes to lock down the locations in the door and stop I began to step up to the sizes in the individual panels for the camloc and the receptacle. I got all the holes to size and needed to drill the rivet holes for the receptacle.
I was hoping the receptacle rivet holes could be drilled using the normal nutplate jig....but found ther to be about .050 difference in distance. They have a jig for the camlocs that you can buy to drill the rivet holes for about $40....but I wasn't going to bother for three camlocs. I simply clamped the receptacles in place and match drilled the holes from the receptacles into the stop...worked great and saved a little $$$.
After insert ing the camlocs into the door and seeking to engage the receptacles I found I miscalculated the length of camloc I needed....so I have more on order as well as some retainer washers..but small "o" rings kept them in place for now. All seems aligned and ready.
