Large slam latch with inside safety release

The new large format slam latch from FDB Panel Fittings is a purpose designed unit from Weston Body Hardware for large insulated enclosures such as cold stores or containerised units.

The roller striker latch is surface mounted to preserve the integrity of the door with an internal punch-style emergency release.



Importantly, the release ‘mushroom’ features a fluorescent button for easy location in the event of inadvertent door closure.

The 270mm latch is suitable for flush fit or offset doors and is easy to operate, even with gloved hands.

It offers a quick, positive, smooth and quiet action for especially heavy doors. Finish is high quality chrome.
