Variations
The Metrol 1245-257-203 is a key-locking lever latch finished in black powder coat, designed to securely close and hold panels, doors, and covers whilst allowing quick, controlled access when required. Suitable for industrial equipment, electrical enclosures, cabinets, and machinery housings, it is built to prevent accidental opening caused by vibration or handling and to support repeatable day-to-day operation.
The handle, housing, and trigger are constructed from zinc die cast alloy, with mild steel zinc plated fixing components providing corrosion resistance at the mounting points. The locking mechanism uses a CH751 key with shutter, adding a controlled-access layer appropriate for enclosures and equipment panels in industrial environments. The black powder coat finish provides both aesthetic uniformity and surface protection.
The latch accepts a panel cutout of 35 x 90 mm and accommodates a panel thickness of 21–31 mm, with a grip range of 45–57 mm. It carries an IP40 ingress protection rating and has been salt spray tested to over 300 hours, confirming suitability for demanding workshop and industrial conditions. The universal panel cutout format simplifies installation across a range of enclosure types.
This product is supplied as a standalone latch unit. It is backed by a one-year guarantee.
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.
