Latch Systems - Budget

Budget latch systems are mechanical latches that can secure or lock gates, doors or other units while also allowing them to be open and closed easily. Latch systems are usually made up of a latch mechanism and a strike plate or keeper. The mechanism is secured to the door or gate and the keeper or strike plate is attached to the frame that the door or gate will close against.

Latch systems are attached to doors or gates to keep them securely closed while providing an easy means of opening. To open the gate or door, the latch mechanism can be simply disengaged by operating a lever, knob or handle which releases the latch from the keeper. Budget latches are used in many different industries including automotive, industrial and transportation and in applications around the home, including cupboards, kitchen cabinets, gates and doors.

In our latch range at FA Parkes, we stock slam latches, toggle latches and magnetic latches. Slam latches can be closed with a simple push, which makes them ideal if you've got your hands full and need to close the latch easily and quickly. Toggle latches are a more secure option as they have adjustable tension and can lock easily, which makes them ideal for use in industrial settings where security is important. Magnetic latches are another easy to use option, and they are often found in kitchens and on furniture as they close with a gentle push.

Our budget latches are made by manufacturers such as Weston Body Hardware, Pinet Industrie, and EMKA They are made from materials such as die cast zinc, stainless steel and acetal resin for strength and durability.
