Converts Screw-Cover Enclosures to Quick-Release

The HOFFMAN AL48 Latch Kit replaces standard screw covers on Type 4X fiberglass enclosures with tool-free, padlockable quick-release latches. Two fiberglass-reinforced gray polyester latches and 316 stainless steel bails are included. The kit is designed for continuous-hinge boxes and installs without modifying the enclosure. It suits maintenance teams who need frequent, secure access.

Verify Enclosure Type

Confirm the target enclosure is a Type 4X fiberglass unit with a continuous hinge; the latches will not fit screw-cover boxes that use a different hinge design. Ensure the existing screw-hole pattern matches the supplied plugs so no drilling is required. The accessory is restricted from sale in certain states, so check local availability before purchasing.

Withstands Harsh Environments During Extended Use

Fiberglass-reinforced polyester bodies and 316 stainless steel bails resist corrosion, UV exposure and chemical splash in continuous outdoor or wash-down service. The padlockable design maintains security through repeated daily cycles without loosening. Matte finish reduces glare during inspections while the material retains structural rigidity over long operating periods.
