National Mfg N208-587 Lockable Drawer Catch Zinc

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N208-587 is a lockable drawer catch designed to provide tight, secure closing for drawers and cabinet applications. Constructed from zinc and steel, this surface-mount catch installs directly onto the surface of the cabinet or drawer face without requiring recessed cutouts. The locking mechanism adds an extra layer of security beyond a standard latch, making it suitable for tool storage, utility cabinets, and similar installations where contents need to stay secured. Licensed contractors, finish carpenters, and facility maintenance technicians commonly install this type of hardware in both residential and light commercial settings. Package quantity is 5 units per pack.

This lockable drawer catch is suited for residential cabinetry, workshop storage, utility rooms, and commercial millwork applications where positive latch engagement and optional lock-out capability are required. The design supports both vertical and horizontal mounting orientations, giving installers flexibility across different cabinet and drawer configurations. Surface mounting simplifies the installation process and reduces the need for specialized tooling or routing equipment.
