Emtek 8802US19 Ball Catch Flat Black

Product Description

The EMTEK 8802US19 is a ball catch door hardware component finished in flat black. A ball catch uses a spring-loaded ball bearing to hold a door in the closed position without a latch bolt or turn knob. When the door is pushed closed, the ball compresses and seats into a strike cup, keeping the door shut until pulled open. This component is suited for interior doors where a traditional latch mechanism is not required or desired. Measuring 4 inches in length and 2.3 inches in width, it is a compact, low-profile unit installed by carpenters, finish tradespeople, and general contractors during door hardware rough-in or finish phases.

Ball catches are commonly used on interior passage doors, cabinet doors, and closet doors in both residential and light commercial applications. The flat black finish suits modern, industrial, and transitional design schemes. This catch is sold individually and is appropriate for new construction and renovation work where a clean, hardware-minimal door closure is specified.

Align the ball catch body and strike cup carefully to ensure consistent engagement and avoid binding. Follow applicable local building codes for interior door hardware installation.
