I recently picked up a pair of used Lista cabinets at a very good price..... free.
I'm cleaning them up, and giving them some TLC.

..
I need some small parts to restore them to proper working condition, and have pictures below of what I need.
From what I understand, the cabinets are older and Lista does not stock these parts as they are obsolete.
If anyone can help, please pm me or post here.

One lock-body and key.
The lock-body has the drive pins sheared off.

..
One retaining clip for the lock-rod.
One of mine broke when I removed it to get the lock out for key code numbers.

..
Two left-hand and two right-hand drawer pull end-caps.

..
One of whatever this is.

Thank you in advance.

I purchased 15 of the black ABS replacement locking cams from the guy on eBay. They work just fine. Have some extra white nylon cams. I can send you one if you PM me with your address. As for the other parts let me know if you find a source. I need some too.

Bib Overalls,
nine4gmc,


Thank you all for responding!

The ebay part would work.
I am taking up Bib Overalls though on his very generous offer.

Bib Overalls, I will let you know if I am able to source any of the other items.

Now to solve the rest of the puzzle.

Pretty sure the balance is available from Lista, I purchased a couple years ago from Motorhead Extraordinaire but they recently changed their name

Actually pm me your address and I'll send you the drawer pull end caps I switched mine out for latching style.

Call Lista. I called them about some cabinets I bought and they had me e-mail them pictures. They told me they were made in the 80's and they sold me all the parts I need. They claim that they still have almost every print of everything they have ever made.

Who did you talk to at Lista? I never had any success finding someone who actually knew what spares they stocked. I also need some end caps and maybe a lock.

All but the white plastic for the back of the drawer are available through Lista. If you can cut that shape into a piece of hard plastic and mount it you can save a few dollars. You can call and speak with either Customer Service or Tech Support. The locks have changed to an interchangeable core but will work with your cabinet base don the pictures, also the retainer clip is no longer required with the new lock.
They just put in the capability to order a limited offering of Technician Series Cabinets online. https://quickship.lista.vidmar.com/lista-quickship/technician-series-toolboxes

Pay it forward.

Bib Overalls,
Thanks again for the cam!

I ordered lock # IC-CYL-RG (it comes with keys), and adapter plate # X4414 today from:
DMARK Corporation
10552 Humbolt St.
Los Alamitos, CA 90720
Tel (562) 799-9010 / 888.897.9050

They are a distributor for Lista.
I talked to Carmen, she was very helpful.

I'm pretty sure the end caps have a part # molded on them and if you have a lock # you may be able to buy a key direct from lista.

An update:
I received and installed the lock and adapter. (Sorry forgot to take pics).
The lock is held in place with a supplied clip.
The adapter is a shim with a hole punched in the center in the shape of the lock hole on the cabinet.

I installed the lock cam from Bib Overalls, and the drawer pull end-caps from bigredmf.
THANK YOU again guys!

I also cleaned up the cabinets good, installed heavy duty casters, and bolted the cabinets together.
I used my heat-gun and Goo Gone to remove the labels that were on the handles.
I'm calling the project done, and am mostly pleased with how it turned out.
