Sea-Dog 224300-1 Push Button Rim Latch, Polished Chrome, Includes Flat and 90 Degree Strike Plates

The Sea-Dog 224300-1 is a push button rim latch for marine cabinets and drawers. Pushing the button releases a positive-action closure that keeps doors and drawers securely shut until the button is deliberately pressed again, preventing them from popping open in rough water. The housing is built from sturdy brass and plastic with a polished chrome finish on the knob, giving it a clean, finished look on cabinetry. It mounts as a mortise latch for a flush, streamlined appearance and is suitable for either left-side or right-side door use, so one part number works regardless of which way the door swings.

This is the packaged version of the latch, which comes complete with both a flat strike plate and a 90 degree strike plate, covering inset and overlay mounting without having to buy plates separately. (The bulk version of this latch, part number 224300, does not include strike plates and requires them to be ordered separately as 224320 for flat mounting or 224321 for 90 degree mounting.) Maximum door thickness for installation is 1 inch. The latch body installs with two #6 RH fasteners, and each strike plate requires two #4 FH fasteners; fasteners are not included and must be sourced separately.
