‘Deep-Dish’ Paddles, Hook-Latch Models

With this design a spring-loaded steel ‘hook’ projects vertically from the back of the paddle case, which engages with a rod or loop striker. This gives a smooth action and doors close easily without ‘bounce back’. These models are widely used on construction plant for toolboxes and engine covers.

Blind-mounting models have four studs (M6x10mm) welded on inside rim. Striker made in 6mm diameter stainless rod, welded to stainless backplate. Alternatively it can be supplied without bend (M=80mm) as 9/00406/02.

Deep dish (30 mm) with internal finger-shield and beaded edge on flap for easy operation. Stainless locking bolt slides on carrier, giving protection against flap being forced. Extra-wide ‘hook’ (30 mm) for good engagement and seating.
As door closes, the ramped face of the hook meets striker and is forced laterally through 30°. Once closed the spring action secures hook under striker.
Locking with key blocks movement of flap, but latch can still be slammed.
