LATCH HANDLE ASSEMBLY

There are thousands of different handle configurations in every commercial kitchen. From cookware to cutlery, griddles to grinders, or mixers to microwave ovens, almost every piece of restaurant equipment and implement has some sort of handle. A handle is a part of, or attachment to, an object that can be moved or used by hand. Handle designs differ greatly by application, sanitary regulations, and safety considerations making it especially important that OEM replacements are used whenever possible.

A latch or catch is a type of mechanical fastener that joins two (or more) objects or surfaces while allowing for their regular separation. A latch typically engages another piece of hardware on the other mounting surface. Depending upon the type and design of the latch, this engaged bit of hardware may be known as a keeper or strike.
