The perfect hidden lock for this setup would be a pair of holes drilled vertically one on each side, drop a steel pin in there and you can easily remove it with a magnet. Very hard to see if you dont know what too look for and impossible to open with out the "tool". Usually enough security for idiots and curious children.

My dad secured his powder cabinet like this the entire time we were kids, he still had to show me once I started reloading later in life. haha.
