Ives RL3026D Large Nylon Roller Latch Satin Chrome

Product Description

The IVES RL3026D is a large nylon roller latch finished in satin chrome, designed for interior door applications in commercial and residential construction. The roller latch provides smooth, quiet latching action by using a spring-loaded nylon roller that engages a strike plate as the door closes. This type of hardware is commonly installed by carpenters, finish contractors, and general tradespeople during door hardware rough-in or finish stages. At 3.5 inches in length and weighing 0.5 pounds, the RL3026D is a compact, lightweight unit suited for standard interior door assemblies where a low-profile latch mechanism is required.

The RL3026D is appropriate for use on interior swing doors in offices, commercial facilities, hotels, multi-unit residential buildings, and light institutional environments. It is particularly well suited for applications where a traditional spring latch would produce unwanted noise, as the nylon roller reduces contact sound during closure. The satin chrome finish coordinates with a wide range of architectural hardware finishes commonly specified in commercial door schedules.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter or general contractor during door hardware installation. Power down any access control or electric strike systems associated with the door before servicing the latch hardware. Use a chisel and drill to prepare the door edge mortise and bore to the manufacturer dimensions before setting the latch body. Verify strike plate alignment after installation to ensure consistent roller engagement and proper door closure.
