The Metrol 1245-329-203 is a key-locking lever latch from the 1245 series, finished in black powder coat and designed to securely close and hold panels, doors, and covers while allowing quick, controlled access when needed. Suited to industrial equipment, electrical enclosures, cabinets, and machinery housings, it helps prevent accidental opening caused by vibration or handling and supports repeatable day-to-day operation.
The latch is constructed using zinc alloy die casting for the handle, housing, and trigger, with mild steel zinc plated fixing components throughout. The black powder coat finish is salt spray tested to over 300 hours, making it appropriate for demanding workshop and industrial environments. Locking is achieved via the CH751 key system, with keys supplied as standard.
Installation requires a standard 35 x 90 mm panel cutout. The latch accommodates a grip range of 14–29 mm and a panel thickness of 21–31 mm, offering useful flexibility across a range of enclosure and door constructions. The product carries an IP40 ingress protection rating and is guaranteed for one year.

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.
