Sea-Dog Door Stop and Catch 221710-1, Investment Cast 316 Stainless Steel

The Sea-Dog Door Stop and Catch (221710-1) holds a door securely against its rubber stop, effectively reducing the rattling common with most standard door hooks. A spring-loaded latch engages and releases the door quickly and easily, giving one-handed operation without fumbling for a hook-and-eye catch. The body is investment cast from 316 stainless steel, a grade chosen for its resistance to corrosion in marine and coastal environments, making this catch suitable for boat interiors as well as other applications where a durable, rattle-free door latch is needed.

This is the smaller of two sizes in the Sea-Dog door stop and catch line, measuring 2 inches by 2-1/2 inches. It installs with five #6 flat head fasteners (fasteners not included), so mounting hardware should be sourced separately to match the door and frame material.
