L1212Z - SLAM LATCH EXTERNAL RECESSED - large

Large Slam Lock Latch - This may be used to create removable panels instead of creating a full-blown lid. Great for creating access panels.

This particular latch installs on the exterior of the panel via a cutout required in the case wall to allow for the recessed portion of its dish. The latch mechanism catches on the inner wall.

Rivets Required For Installation: 4

THIS ITEM REQUIRES ONE CUTOUT IN THE CASE WALLS TO INSTALL THE DISH ASSEMBLY.

RECOMMENDED USES:
Removable Door Panels

MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED CASE DIMENSIONS:
N/A

ASSOCIATED COMPATIBLE PARTS:
- L0490 Quick Lid™ Extrusion
- C0675/30 Quick Lid™ Corner
- P2472 Quick Lid™ Hook Plate

#1 - The front, back, or top panel of the case is an inset removable panel held in place by a custom extrusion, custom two-leg corners, specially designed hook plates, and a spring-loaded internal latch. Multiple latches may be used for larger panels.

#2 - Stick your finger into the access hole for the internal latch and push down on the internal spring-loaded latch mechanism to release the panel from the custom extrusion framework.

#3 - Pull the removable panel from the custom extrusion framework.

#4 - As you detach the removable panel, you can see the two hook plates with their offset flanges that grab the lip of the custom extrusion. Together with the internal spring-loaded latch(es) these hook plates act to firmly secure the panel to the extrusion framework. The latch can be installed with wood screws for a "clean" exterior look, or with rivets just as you would install any other part (and since this latch is internal, just make sure the rivet is installed so that the rivet head is on the EXTERIOR of the case!)

#5 - Here is a reverse view of the two hook plates and their offset flanges that grab the lip of the custom extrusion.
