Perko 1082DP3WHT Flush Latch, Non-Locking, White, for Smooth Surfaces

The Perko 1082DP3WHT is a non-locking flush latch built for boat hatches, compartment doors, and cabinet panels where a low-profile, flush-mounted closure is needed. Molded from white polymer, it is designated by Perko as Fig. 1082 and includes a gasket for smooth surface applications, distinguishing it from the carpet-only Fig. 1072 version. The latch uses a cam bar that adjusts from 1-1/16 inches to 2-9/16 inches, allowing it to accommodate a range of panel or hatch thicknesses. Two O-rings are built into the design for increased water resistance, an important feature for latches installed in wet or exposed marine environments. A position indicator on the face of the latch shows at a glance whether it is open or closed, making it easy to confirm a hatch is secured without lifting it. The face plate measures 2-7/8 inches by 2-7/8 inches, keeping the visible hardware compact and flush with the surrounding surface. Because this is the non-locking version, it is best suited for interior compartments, storage lids, and access panels that do not require a key; Perko also offers a locking Fig. 1081 version for applications that do. The white finish matches light-colored gelcoat, fiberglass, and trim commonly found on boats.
