Umm not quite Keep in mind a dresser dosent have those ledges but i may be able to install a ledge idk

I saw someone on here say that you could attach a chain or something to the inside door or drawer then run it out a hole in the back where it connects to a hook or something...That is really stealth mode cause you wouldn't even know there is a lock on it.

Installing a 'ledge' is realy a simple job

If your makeing the front of the cabniet swing open , all you should need to do is drill for the lock and carve out a small chanel for the locks 'arm' to bind


The magnetic locks that were linked earlier are very creative locks that will cause a lot of confusion becouse their is no key hole or anything showing - If you go this rought just get a decent lock the cheap ones can be pulled open by hand
