Abstract:
A novel flush mounted handle, latch bolt and housing assembly formed of a suitable plastic material such as nylon and comprising a housing conformably received and frictionally retained in an opening in a door, drawer or other closure such as intended for recreational vehicles or the like, and a combined handle and latch bolt, these two components being readily assembled when snapped together and provide a positive and secure assembly. The novel latch bolt has a flexible tab coacting with the housing to provide spring pressure to bias the latch bolt to latching position, and a key-operated locking means in the housing for retaining the latch bolt in locked position.
