Ives CL143 Auxiliary Push Cabinet Latch Brass

Product Description

The IVES CL143 is an auxiliary push cabinet latch finished in bright brass. It is designed to keep cabinet doors securely closed while allowing quick, tool-free release with a simple push. This type of latch is commonly installed in millwork, cabinetry, and light architectural door applications where a clean, finished appearance is required alongside reliable retention. At 4 inches in length and approximately 0.1 pounds, the CL143 is a compact, lightweight hardware component suited for finish carpenters, millwork installers, and general contractors working on interior door and cabinet projects.

The CL143 is used in residential and light commercial cabinet and door applications. It fits standard interior cabinetry where a low-profile push-to-release latch mechanism is preferred over traditional turn or magnetic latches. Typical installations include kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, built-ins, and furniture pieces requiring a polished brass accent hardware finish. This latch ships as a single unit and is appropriate for new construction and renovation work alike.
