Pamex DD0530OB Adjustable Ball Catch Oil Rubbed Bronze

Product Description

The PAMEX DD0530OB is an adjustable ball catch in a drive-in style configuration, finished in oil rubbed bronze. It installs into a door edge to hold a door in a latched position without requiring a turn knob or lever operation. The spring-tensioned ball extends to engage a strike plate, keeping the door closed under light pressure. The adjustable design allows the installer to tune the holding tension to match door weight and traffic frequency. At 0.15 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight unit sized for standard residential and light commercial door prep. Carpenters, finish contractors, and door hardware installers are the primary trade handling this fitting.

The DD0530OB is suited for residential interior doors, cabinet doors, and light commercial passage doors where a positive but non-latching hold is needed. The oil rubbed bronze finish coordinates with matching lever sets, hinges, and other hardware in the same family. Drive-in installation requires only a correctly sized hole bored into the door edge, making this catch compatible with standard door prep tooling. It is sold individually and available in case quantities of 50 for tract builders and hardware contractors managing larger scopes.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters or finish hardware contractors. Before installation, confirm the door edge bore diameter matches the catch body diameter to ensure a snug drive-in fit. No fasteners are required for the catch body, but the mating strike plate should be positioned accurately on the door frame to ensure proper ball engagement. Adjust the ball tension screw after installation to achieve the desired holding force before completing the door swing check.
