Ball catches are spring-loaded latching devices installed in door edges or cabinet frames to hold a door in the closed position without a traditional latch bolt or handle-operated mechanism. This unit measures 3 inches in length, 2.5 inches in width, and 1.5 inches in height, and weighs 0.15 pounds. The solid brass construction provides corrosion resistance and durability suited to both interior door and cabinetry applications. Installation is handled by carpenters, millworkers, or general contractors during new construction or hardware replacement projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IVES 349B5 is appropriate for residential and light commercial interior door applications where a clean, unobtrusive latching solution is required. Common installations include passage doors, cabinet doors, and closet doors where a knob or lever-operated latch is not needed or desired. The round corner design allows for straightforward mortise or surface installation without additional corner chiseling. The antique brass finish coordinates with matching door hardware in period-appropriate or traditional architectural settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid brass construction for corrosion resistance and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAntique brass finish suits traditional and period architectural hardware sets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRound corner profile simplifies installation without corner-squaring work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor: 3 inches long, 2.5 inches wide, 1.5 inches tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring-loaded ball mechanism holds door closed without a handle-operated latch\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 interior residential and light commercial doors and cabinetry requiring a spring-loaded, non-locking hold-closed mechanism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a carpenter, finish carpenter, or general contractor.
