Small Version of a Loft Ladder Latch...

[charliegolf]

My loft has an eye into which a hook is inserted and twisted 90 degrees to open the hatch. I have a small job for which two very small ones would be ideal (currently using a single screw).

What are such things called please; and can you get them with a small (maybe brass) knob instead of the eye?

Thanks

Edit: Cabinet latch.

I don't know, but a fanlight catch is a good alternative.

latches shut, and you pull the loop to open.

very reliable.

You don't say what size yours are but these are not very big versions of the same thing https://www.diy.com/departments/bra...3_1639802743_1ae400840c6f43930f01c9bc13347a30

Yes, the B&Q one might be great. I'd probably ditch the receiver and have the latch go into a slot cut in the timber.

Thanks both...
