Emtek 8802US15 Ball Catch Satin Nickel

Product Description

The EMTEK 8802US15 is a ball catch finished in satin nickel, designed to hold a door in a closed position without a latching mechanism. Ball catches use spring-loaded steel balls that seat into a strike to keep a door shut while allowing easy release with light pressure. This hardware is suited for interior doors in residential and light commercial settings where a traditional latch is not required or preferred. It is typically installed by carpenters, finish contractors, or experienced DIYers working on interior door applications.

The 8802US15 fits standard interior door applications where a simple, unobtrusive closing solution is needed. It is commonly used on passage doors, cabinet-style doors, and interior doors that do not require a keyed or privacy function. The satin nickel finish coordinates with a wide range of interior hardware finishes and fixtures. This unit is sold individually and ships as a single assembly.

Installation Notes

Ball catches are typically installed by a finish carpenter or general contractor during interior door trim-out. Ensure the door and frame are properly aligned before installation to allow the ball to seat correctly in the strike. No special tools beyond standard hand tools are required. Always follow local building codes for interior door hardware installation.
