About Cam Latches and Locks
More
Electronic Remote-Release Rotary Latches
Open your door with a card reader or other access control device. In case of emergency, these latches have a lever to manually open your door. You can also connect a cable, rod, or handle (not included) to operate these latches remotely in areas with obstructions. To close these latches, push them in, and they firmly grip the strike bolt or plate on your door to hold it shut. Also known as single-stage rotary latches, they only have one latching position to keep them closed. Push them hard to make sure they don’t accidentally open.
Latches with a switch can trigger a light, alarm, or other device to let you know when the latch is open or closed. Closing the door resets the switch.
Latches with Bluetooth operate wirelessly. They have a spring-loaded plunger that pushes the door open, so you don’t have to pull it open yourself.
Control modules (sold separately) are required to operate these latches. Connect and operate up to six latches with a single module.
Wire connectors (sold separately) easily connect the control modules (sold separately) to power and the rotary latches.

Recessed T-Handle Cam Latches


The T-handle lays flush in the recess, so you won’t bump into or catch your clothes on these latches. Also called quarter-turn latches, they have a cam that rotates 90° to secure enclosures. The cam has an adjustable latching distance, making these latches best for jobs when precise distances are unknown. Adjust the cam’s position before installing. You can install these latches in a round hole instead of the irregularly shaped standard cam hole. This is helpful if your panel is difficult to cut or part of an existing structure. Made of 316 stainless steel, they resist rusting if rinsed or wiped with cleaning solutions.

Lift-and-Turn Tight-Hold Recessed T-Handle Cam Latches




Fold the handle into the recess to stay out of the way when not in use. It lays flat so you won’t bump into these latches or catch clothes on them. The latches project further into enclosures than other latches without a recess. To open them, pull the handle. Also known as compression cam latches, they create a tighter hold than traditional cam latches, making them useful for doors that have a seal. Lift the handle and turn it a quarter- or half-turn to close, then push it down to create full compression and minimize rattling from vibration.
All of these latches include one or more cams with an adjustable latching distance. They handle a wide range of latching distances, so they’re best for tasks when precise distances are unknown. Adjust the position of the cam before you begin to install them.
Aluminum latches are lighter in weight then stainless steel latches, but not as corrosion resistant.
Use stainless steel latches in areas that are constantly exposed to moisture since they resist corrosion better than aluminum latches .
For Style B latches, the installation hole can be made with a round hole instead of the irregularly shaped standard cam hole. This is especially helpful if the material of the door is difficult to cut or part of an existing structure.

Tight-Hold Recessed Ring-Handle Cam Latches


Fold the ring handle into the recess to stay out of the way when not in use. It lays flat so you won’t bump into these latches or catch clothes on them. The latches project further into enclosures than other latches without a recess. To open them, pull the ring with your finger. Turn the head a quarter turn to lock, then turn it another quarter turn to create compression. The second turn also reduces rattling from vibration.
Also known as compression cam latches, these latches create a tighter hold than traditional cam latches, making them useful for doors that have a seal. A gasket helps keep low-pressure washdowns and dust from entering through the latch. This helps you maintain your sealed enclosure's IP or NEMA rating. Made of stainless steel, these latches won’t rust in areas that are constantly exposed to moisture.
All of these latches include multiple cams with an adjustable latching distance. They handle a wide range of latching distances, so they’re best for tasks when precise distances are unknown. Adjust the position of the cam before you begin to install them. The latch installation hole can be made with a round hole instead of the irregularly shaped standard cam hole.
