Ives CL144 Auxiliary Push Cabinet Latch Satin Brass

Product Description

The IVES CL144 is an auxiliary push cabinet latch finished in satin brass. It mounts to cabinet doors and enclosures to provide supplemental latching where a secondary hold point is needed. The latch operates with a simple push-to-close mechanism, making it practical for light-duty cabinet applications in commercial and residential settings. At 0.1 pounds and compact dimensions, it installs quickly and adds reliable closure without bulky hardware. Building hardware installers, millwork carpenters, and general contractors are the typical trades who specify and install this type of latch.

The CL144 suits interior cabinet doors, utility enclosures, and access panels where a low-profile auxiliary latch is required. Its satin brass finish coordinates with standard architectural hardware in commercial office builds, institutional facilities, and residential cabinetry. The unit ships individually and is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit applications where an existing latch needs a supplemental hold point.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a carpenter, millwork installer, or general contractor. Before installing, ensure the cabinet door is fully closed and aligned to confirm correct latch positioning. Secure mounting screws to the manufacturer-recommended pilot-hole size to avoid splitting the cabinet substrate. Do not overtighten fasteners on thin door panels.
