The Metrol 1245-245-204 is a CH751 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 needed. With a grip range of 29–45mm and a panel thickness capacity of 31–41mm, it suits a wide range of industrial enclosure and cabinet installations.
Constructed from die-cast zinc alloy for the handle, housing, and trigger, with mild steel zinc-plated fixing components, the latch combines corrosion resistance with robust mechanical durability. The black powder-coated finish and key-locking mechanism with integral shutter provide both a clean aesthetic and reliable access security.
The latch accepts a standard 35×90mm panel cut-out and carries an IP40 ingress protection rating, making it appropriate for use in electrical enclosures, machinery housings, and industrial cabinets where protection against solid particle ingress is required. Salt spray testing to over 300 hours confirms its suitability for demanding workshop and industrial environments.
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.
