Can't find a cam lock for wardrobe double doors.

[Crimea]

The wardrobe is fitted and has conventional double doors, that open to the left and right to reveal the whole storage space, and a single door to the left. There are also smaller, identical doors above.

I wanted to fit the same locks for both double and single doors (+ the above ones) and thought a simple cam lock would be best for the single doors, but I can't find anything for double doors. Like all wardrobes, there isn't any wardrobe frame behind the centre of the double doors, for the lock arm to rotate 90 deg to lock against. It would rotate in thin air.

Does anyone know of a cam lock that comes with something like the arrow below? Something it can rotate into?

Am I stuck with using different locks for the two types of door or have I chosen the wrong lock to begin with?

Am I being daft for wanting this?

Thanks.

are you talking 2 wardrobe doors that close onto a partition between the doors ??

No, the space behind the double doors is completely free of any partition or frame that any lock arm could lock onto. I didn't want to complicate things by indicating there is a partition, but it is too recessed from the front for any kind of lock to lock onto.

I hope these pics make it clearer:

Whichever door I put a cam lock on, the other will still be able to open freely, unless I can fit something like the arrow points to onto the other door and both can hold each other in place.

assuming its for security reasons rather than just holding the doors shut you need to fit a necked bolt top and bottom where the magnetic catches are on one door or the other
otherwise both doors will open as now

Yes, it was for security reasons. I just want to lock all the doors, for when I am out of the house, really.

The magnetic catches are pretty strong and keep in place the door I don't want to open.

Call me lazy, but I had set my sights on a single lock for the double doors and came up with this arrangement:

I thought I might have to use a cam lock for the single door and maybe a drawer/cupboard cylinder deadbolt for the double doors, with an angled mortice/lock keep.

I hadn't thought of using a door bolt at the top or bottom.

it wont work you pull one door they both open and part
it may bind up a few inches open but would take little effort to open
you could get a hooked latch but it would still be very weak

otherwise look at an Espagnolette mechanism for the second closing door, it shoots bolts top and bottom with the turn of a handle or knob. They are often used on office cabinets.
