I got the locks from Woodworkers Hardware. Look under 'Cabinet Locks' then 'Specialty Locks'. I believe they are the Polished Nickel ratchet locks (KV0965NP) for $7.05/ea. The picture currently on their website looks a little different from the lock I have. I paid $5.98 for those locks, so it looks like the price has gone up!
To be honest, I wouldn't recommend the locks I used. They're a pain. In order to remove the lock, you have to turn the key and keep it turned (it wants to spring back to the locked position) as you remove the locking mechanism. The locks I bought from Vision for use with my old Vision cages were much better: once you turn the key, the lock remains unlocked and the cylinder can easily be slid off the hasp with one hand. The ones I got from Woodworker's Hardware require two hands to lock and unlock the cage!
FYI, I also bought glass door pulls from Woodworkers Hardware. They're item 'EGP 17C'. They're the same 3M ones that Vision used to ship with. You just peel the paper off the back and attach the plastic pull to the door. They were $1.57 when I bought them; not sure how much they cost now.
