A locking mechanism for an enclosure. The locking mechanism includes a housing with an outer surface having a first tab fixedly attached to the housing. The housing is adapted to be coupled to a door by pressing the housing through a latch housing of a latching mechanism of the door until the first tab springs out and locks the housing in place in the latch housing. The locking mechanism includes an insert adapted to be positioned through the housing and adapted to be coupled to a flange of the latching mechanism of the door. The insert includes either a handle or a knob. Rotation of the insert rotates the flange to lock the door.

1. A locking mechanism for an enclosure comprising: a housing with an outer surface having a first tab fixedly attached to the housing, the housing adapted to be coupled to a door by pressing the housing through a latch housing of a latching mechanism of the door until the first tab springs out and locks the housing in place in the latch housing; andan insert adapted to be positioned through the housing and adapted to be coupled to a flange of the latching mechanism of the door, the insert including one of a handle and knob, wherein rotation of the insert rotates the flange to lock the door, wherein the insert includes a shoulder and the housing includes a first padlock ring, the locking mechanism further comprising: a reversible insert including a notch and a second padlock ring, the insert being adapted to be positioned through the reversible insert, the shoulder on the insert engaging the notch on the reversible insert so that rotating the insert rotates the reversible insert; wherein the first padlock ring and the second padlock ring align to allow a padlock to pass through the first padlock ring and the second padlock ring, the second padlock ring positioned on a first side of the first padlock ring and preventing the insert from rotating in a first rotational direction toward the first side of the first padlock ring. 2. The locking mechanism of claim 1, wherein the outer surface of the housing has a second tab, wherein the second tab springs out to lock the housing in place in the latch housing when the housing is pressed through the latch housing. 3. The locking mechanism of claim 2, wherein the second tab is opposite from the first tab on the outer surface of the housing. 4. The locking mechanism of claim 1, wherein the reversible insert can be rotated with respect to the insert so that the second padlock ring is positioned on a second side of the first padlock ring preventing the insert from rotating in a second rotational direction toward the second side of the first padlock ring. 5. The locking mechanism of claim 1, and further comprising a handle coupled to the insert, wherein rotating the handle rotates the insert. 6. A reversible locking mechanism for an enclosure comprising: a housing including a first padlock ring, the housing adapted to be coupled to a latch housing of a latching mechanism of a door;a first insert including a shoulder, the first insert adapted to be positioned through the housing and adapted to be coupled to a flange of the latching mechanism of the door, wherein rotation of the first insert rotates the flange to lock the door;a second reversible insert including a notch and a second padlock ring, the first insert adapted to be positioned through the second reversible insert, the shoulder engaging the notch so that rotating the first insert rotates the second reversible insert;the first padlock ring and the second padlock ring adapted to be aligned to allow a padlock to pass through the first padlock ring and the second padlock ring,the second reversible insert being configured to one of allow the second padlock ring to be positioned on a first side of the first padlock ring to hinder the first insert from rotating in a first rotational direction toward the first side of the first padlock ring, andto be rotated on the first insert so that the second padlock ring is positioned on a second side of the first padlock ring to hinder the first insert from rotating in a second rotational direction toward the second side of the first padlock ring. 7. The reversible locking mechanism of claim 6, and further comprising a handle coupled to the first insert, wherein rotating the handle rotates the first insert. 8. The reversible locking mechanism of claim 6, wherein the housing has an outer surface with a first tab, the housing being coupled to the door by pressing the housing through the latch housing until the first tab springs out and locks the housing in place in the latch housing. 9. The reversing locking mechanism of claim 8, wherein the outer surface of the housing has a second tab, wherein the second tab springs out to lock the housing in place in the latch housing when the housing is pressed through the latch housing. 10. The reversible locking mechanism of claim 9, wherein the second tab is opposite from the first tab on the outer surface of the housing. 11. An enclosure for electronic components comprising: a plurality of walls and a door;a latching mechanism coupled to the door, the latching mechanism including a latch housing coupled to the door, and a flange rotatable to lock the door; anda locking mechanism including a housing including a first padlock ring, the housing coupled to the latch housing;a first insert including a shoulder, the first insert adapted to be positioned through the housing and coupled to the flange, rotation of the first insert rotating the flange to lock the door; anda second reversible insert including a notch and a second padlock ring, the first insert adapted to be positioned through the second reversible insert, the shoulder engaging the notch so that rotating the first insert rotates the second reversible insert;the first padlock ring and the second padlock ring adapted to be aligned to allow a padlock to pass through the first padlock ring and the second padlock ring,the second reversible insert being configured to one of allow the second padlock ring to be positioned on a first side of the first padlock ring and to be rotated on the insert so that the second padlock ring is positioned on a second side of the first padlock ring. 12. The enclosure of claim 11, and further comprising a handle coupled to the insert, wherein rotating the handle rotates the insert. 13. The enclosure of claim 11, wherein the housing has an outer surface with a first tab, the housing being coupled to the door by pressing the housing through the latch housing until the first tab springs out and locks the housing in place in the latch housing. 14. The enclosure of claim 13, wherein the outer surface of the housing has a second tab, wherein the second tab springs out to lock the housing in place in the latch housing when the housing is pressed through the latch housing. 15.
