Does the soft-close mechanism actually lock the drawer shut?

No. The keyed cam lock physically retains the drawer closed.

Soft-close just controls the final part of the movement.

If you need the drawer secured, turn the key.

Can I remove the drawer tray completely without unmounting the chassis? Can I accidentally pull the drawer right off its runners? What does soft-close mean on these drawers? Are all of the rack drawers keyed alike?
