What is the official name of this latch type.


Recommended Posts

I am looking for a cheap door latch design that I think exists but I cannot find an example on ScrewFix.

 

The knob of this imagined latch rotates, gets thicker the further it is turned and eventually jams up against a metal shim on the door frame. From memory it would not be larger than 2" x 2" and probably finished in a cheap electroplate.

 

The "door" is just a section of 11mm OSB3 sheet, 600mm x 600mm and is an access section of my static caravan skirt that I want to secure rattle free.

Yuesss!!

 

I have been searching for those on and off for weeks, never thought to look under window latches.

 

I was hoping for a cheapee version of those but I can recycle this chrome example when building storage in the finished house. Odd that the brass version is a £1 cheaper.
