The Metrol 1245-245-201 is a key-locking lever latch finished in black powder coat, designed to securely close and hold panels, doors, and covers while allowing quick, controlled access when required. Manufactured under the Metrol 1245 model range, it is suited to industrial equipment, electrical enclosures, cabinets, and machinery housings where accidental opening from vibration or handling must be prevented.
The latch features a zinc die-cast handle, housing, and trigger, with mild steel zinc-plated fixing components. The locking mechanism uses a CH751 key with a shutter for added security. The black powder-coated finish provides a durable, corrosion-resistant surface, and the latch has been salt spray tested to over 300 hours.
Installation uses a universal 35x90mm panel cut-out. The latch accommodates a grip range of 29–45mm and a panel thickness of 1–11mm, offering flexibility across a range of enclosure wall thicknesses. It carries an IP40 ingress protection rating.
This product is guaranteed for 1 year. The latch is supplied as a single unit. Manufacturing country and full box contents are confirmed at point of dispatch.
Latches are access hardware components designed to securely close and hold panels, doors, and covers while still allowing quick, controlled access when needed. Commonly used in industrial equipment, electrical enclosures, cabinets, and machinery housings, they help prevent accidental opening from vibration or handling and support repeatable day-to-day operation. Available in multiple styles and mounting options, latches can be selected to match different access frequency, security, and installation requirements.
