Ives RL32 Brass Roller Latch with Adjustable Projection for Light Duty Applications

Ives RL32 Brass Roller Latch with Adjustable Projection for Light Duty Applications

Professional Light Duty Door Closure Solution

The Ives RL32 Brass Roller Latch provides reliable door closure for light duty cabinet and closet applications. This non-handed roller latch features simple actuation where closing the door causes the roller to fall into the strike depression, holding the door securely closed. The maximum projection of 1/2" allows for variance in door clearance, and the projection is easily adjusted using the knurled knob on the back of the latch. Constructed with brass substrate and featuring a nylon roller standard, this latch fits heavy-duty cylindrical lock cutouts and meets ANSI/BHMA A156.16 standards.
