Can anybody tell me the name of this type of latch?
It is on a wall clock. The door has small brass peg sticking out that
fits in a receiving brass hole in the frame with very light friction so that it stays closed, but little force is needed to open it. I'm looking to find one like it. -Jim |

This sits in the middle of the vertical rail of the door and just friction fit's into a corrosponding hole in the case. It is only there to keep the door from swinging open. -Jim http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?p...r=ball%20catch |
