Deltana RCA336 Roller Catch, 2-1/4"

Everything for one door is in the box. The RCA336 ships packed with a strike plate and matching screws, so a single unit is one complete catch, one strike, and the fasteners. Nothing else to order to hang it on a cabinet, closet, or interior door.

No handing on the RCA336. The roller sits in the door edge and the strike goes on the jamb, both symmetrical, so one part number works on left hand, right hand, and reverse bevel doors. For a property manager standardizing a building, that means one SKU per finish instead of a handed pair.

Depends on what came out. The RCA336 is the 2-1/4 inch body size, so measure the length of the existing mortise in the door edge before ordering. If the old catch was 2-1/4 inches you're patching nothing. Deltana builds this one in a smaller size as well, so if your prep is shorter, order to your measurement rather than to this part number.

Yes, if the door already has a latching lockset holding it closed, a roller catch is redundant. A roller catch such as the Deltana RCA336 or the Emtek 8801 is the holding device itself: the roller rides into a strike plate and friction keeps the door shut, with no bolt and no knob-driven retraction. It suits cabinet, closet, and interior doors that are pulled open by hand. On an opening that needs a latch bolt, a keeper, or any secured function, the roller catch is not a substitute for the lockset.

Yes. Deltana calls out easy installation on thick doors for this catch, and because it mortises into the door edge rather than through the face, stile depth is what matters, not door thickness. The 2-1/4 inch body is the dimension to check against your edge prep.

Solid brass. That's the substrate under every one of the ten finishes, which is why it holds up in closets and bathrooms where a plated steel catch tends to rust at the roller. Deltana rates it for commercial use.

Emtek's 8801 roller catch is the closest cross-brand equivalent ZenSupply carries and does the same job on cabinet and closet doors. Go with the Deltana RCA336 when you need to match a specific finish across a run of doors, since it comes in ten. If the door has to actually latch and hold rather than just stay shut, neither roller catch is the answer, you want a passage latch or a lockset.

They are the same class of hardware from two brands. The Deltana RCA336 is a 2-1/4 inch solid brass roller catch supplied with a strike plate and matching screws, and it is offered in ten finishes including polished brass, oil rubbed bronze, polished and brushed nickel, antique nickel, polished and brushed chrome, antique brass, PVD polished brass, and paint black. The Emtek 8801 is a roller catch in Emtek's own finish program. Pick on which brand's finish family the rest of the door hardware on the opening belongs to, since a catch that shows on the door edge should match the hinges and knobs beside it.
