The Metrol 1245-314-201 is a key-locking lever latch finished in black powder coat, forming part of the Metrol 1245 series. Designed to securely close and hold panels, doors, and covers whilst allowing quick, controlled access when needed, this latch is suited to industrial equipment, electrical enclosures, cabinets, and machinery housings where repeatable day-to-day operation is required.
The latch body, handle, and trigger are constructed from die-cast zinc alloy, with mild steel zinc-plated fixing components. The CH751 key-locking mechanism is supplied with keys. The black powder-coated finish contributes to a salt spray resistance of over 300 hours, making the unit suitable for demanding industrial environments. An IP40 ingress protection rating is confirmed.
The 1245-314-201 accepts a standard 35 x 90 mm universal panel cut-out, a panel thickness of 1–11 mm, and a grip range of 1–14 mm. This combination of parameters allows installation across a range of panel and door constructions without specialist tooling.
The latch carries a guaranteed 1-year warranty. Fixing components are mild steel zinc plated. Keys are supplied as standard with the CH751 lock type.
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.
