Question:
We purchased a Junior door latch. How are you supposed to install this and how do you hold it in position? No other hardware? Jerry
asked by: Jerry W
Expert Reply:
Typically, the Junior Door Latch would install by routing or cutting out a 2-3/4 by 3-3/4 inch hole and would then either be bolted or riveted to the door through holes that would need to be drilled in the flange around the latch. The latch is meant to be used in doors up to 3/4 inch thick. Because the latch is a universal fit item with many different mounting possibilities, the mounting holes are not pre drilled and mounting hardware is not included.
If you would prefer something with the holes pre drilled that has a stainless steel finish, I would recommend the Redline Junior Locking Stainless Door Latch, # L1833.
I have linked you to a photo provided by one of our customers showing how he mounted the latch.
