Padlockable Push-to-Close Latches with Handle and Emergency Release
An emergency release handle offers a means of escape if a door closes with someone inside an enclosure. Mount these padlockable latches horizontally to the face of doors on refrigerators, ovens, and industrial enclosures with the strike plate mounted on the frame.
Latches have an adjustable strike plate to compensate for changes in offset caused by sagging doors and worn or flattened gaskets. Door offset is the space between the door face and the frame when the door is closed.

Square-Drive Push-to-Close Locks with Emergency Release
To keep someone from getting locked inside an enclosure, these locks have an interior release knob that glows green in the dark. Quickly push the locks closed to secure doors. A convenient alternative to cam and draw locks, they don’t require you to turn a cam or pull a latch. All of these locks fit into a cutout (mortise) to mount flush with your doors.
These locks open with a square key (sold separately), so they're more secure than locks that open with a hex or slotted driver yet still match a common keying system for industrial enclosures and other machinery. They have a concealed design to stop others from tampering with them using pliers.

Keyed Push-to-Close Locks with Handle and Emergency Release
An emergency release gives you a way to escape if the door closes with you or someone else inside the enclosure. These locks hold doors shut when pushed closed. Mount these locks horizontally to the face of doors on refrigerators and industrial enclosures with the strike plate mounted on the frame. They're keyed alike, so they’re good if you need several locks that open with the same key. The rod for the emergency release is replaceable.
Locks have an adjustable strike plate to compensate for changes in offset caused by sagging doors and worn or flattened gaskets. Door offset is the space between the door face and the frame when the door is closed.
