Abstract

A keylock cover for an electronic system housing such as a computer system housing. The keylock cover is movably coupled to the housing to move between an open position where the keylock is exposed, to a closed position where the keylock is hidden from view. The keylock cover may be secured in a closed position with a push-push latch mounted in the housing. The keylock cover may include a key retainer that retains a key that is compatible with the keylock to the keylock cover. Computer system identification information such as vender names or product names can be located on the outer side of the keylock cover. In one example, the keylock cover is movably coupled to a bezel of the electronic system housing.
