National Chrome Ball Catch 1" x 2-3/16

This National ball catch secures French doors, single doors and cabinets with a flush-mount design. The polished chrome finish resists corrosion while matching common hardware styles. It replaces an existing door bolt and strike without requiring mortising. Supplied screws allow immediate fitting.

Adjustable Ball Tension For Door Gaps

The 7/8" diameter barrel houses a spring-loaded ball that adjusts for varying door gaps and latching tension. Steel construction provides durability for daily operation. The face plate measures 1" wide by 2-1/8" long to cover standard cutouts. No electronic or magnetic components are involved.

Flush Mount Installation With Supplied Screws

Flush mounting requires a straight bore matching the 7/8" barrel diameter and 1-1/4" depth. Misaligned boring prevents the ball from engaging the strike plate cleanly. Overtightening the face-plate screws can bind the internal spring mechanism. Buyers needing a mortise latch or keyed locking function should select different hardware.

Questions about this item

Should I pick this 1-inch wide face-plate size or a different catch for my door?

Choose this catch when the mortise cut-out in your door edge measures 1 inch wide by 2-1/8 inches long and the bore hole is 7/8 inch diameter.

What does the adjustable ball actually do once the catch is installed?

The ball can be screwed in or out to change how far it protrudes, letting you set the door gap and the latching tension so the door holds closed without binding.

How does the flush-mount design limit the way I install it?

The face plate sits level with the door edge, so you must mortise a 1 by 2-1/8 inch recess and drill a 7/8 inch deep bore; surface mounting is not possible.
