A fiber optic distribution device for handling fiber optic distribution points is disclosed. The device comprises a housing mountable below floor level; a drawer carrying fiber optic modules to which fiber optic cables can be connected thereby providing fiber optic distribution points. Guide rails are attached to the drawer and act together with guide rails attached to the housing allowing a linear movement of the drawer relative to the housing between a first position in which the drawer is positioned inside the housing below floor level and a second position in which the drawer is positioned at least partly outside the housing above floor level. A locking mechanism is pivotably attached to the drawer. The center of gravity of the locking mechanism is positioned offset from a pivoting axis of the locking mechanism so that the locking mechanism automatically locks the drawer in the second position when said drawer is moved from said first position into said second position.
