Perko 0554DP Door Catch, Black Polymer, 2 Per Card
The Perko 0554DP Door Catch is a marine cabinet and locker hardware component designed to hold cabinet, locker, and access doors securely closed aboard a boat. Molded from durable black polymer, it resists the corrosion, moisture, and UV exposure that break down metal hardware in a marine environment, making it a reliable choice for galley cabinets, storage lockers, and other onboard compartments that need a simple, dependable friction latch. The catch mounts with a #4 R.H. Screw and pairs a stud with a separate catch piece, so the door swings closed and stays shut until pulled open by hand. Its compact dimensions (stud 1-1/8 inches by 3/8 inch, catch 1-3/8 inches by 7/8 inch) let it fit into tight cabinet frames without adding bulk. Each unit is sold two per card, which is convenient for outfitting a pair of matching doors or keeping a spare on hand for future repairs. Installation is straightforward: mount the stud and catch halves in alignment on the door and frame so the door snaps shut under light spring tension. This is a general-purpose cabinet hardware item, so it works with a wide range of boat cabinetry rather than being tied to a specific make or model.
