A ball catch is a spring-loaded latching device installed in a door edge that engages a strike plate to hold a door closed without a traditional latch bolt or handle operation. It is used where a door needs to stay closed but does not require a keyed or lever-operated latch. This hardware is installed by carpenters, finish contractors, and general tradespeople during door hardware rough-in or finish trim work. The unit measures 2 inches in length, 2.5 inches in width, and 1 inch in height, and ships as a single piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 8802US3 ball catch is suited for interior residential and light commercial door applications where a low-profile, tool-free release is preferred. Typical installations include cabinet doors, passage doors, closet doors, and room dividers where a positive but light hold is needed. The Polished Brass US3 finish integrates with traditional, transitional, and formal interior design schemes. Each unit is sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring-loaded ball mechanism holds door closed without a turn-style latch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePolished Brass (US3) Lifetime finish for long-term appearance retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact footprint: 2 inches long x 2.5 inches wide x 1 inch high\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight construction at 0.18 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a single unit, compatible with standard door edge prep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation ball catch for standard interior doors requiring a spring-loaded hold-closed mechanism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBall catches are typically installed by finish carpenters or door hardware tradespeople.
