Product Information
Full details
The Union Push Fit Tubular Latch is designed for homeowners and contractors looking for a reliable, easy-to-install hardware solution for internal doors. Its primary benefit is the quick-fit design that eliminates the need for complex mortising while providing a clean, professional aesthetic without visible fixings. A key caveat to consider is that this latch is specifically engineered for internal use with sprung door furniture, meaning it is not suitable for heavy-duty external security applications.

FAQs
Can I use this on an external door?
No, this latch is designed specifically for internal doors and does not provide the security required for external applications.
What size hole do I need to drill?
You need to drill a 25mm diameter hole in the edge of the door for the tubular body.
Does it come with the strike plate?
Yes, the product includes both round and square corner strike plates.
Is this suitable for un-sprung door handles?
This latch is designed to work best with sprung door furniture to ensure the handle returns to a horizontal position.
What is the length of the latch?
This is a 76mm latch, referring to the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the spindle hole (backset).
Troubleshooting
The latch bolt does not retract fully.
Ensure that the door furniture is correctly aligned and that the spring within the handle is functioning properly.
The latch feels loose in the door hole.
Check that the drilled hole is exactly 25mm; if the hole is too wide, the side ribs cannot grip the wood effectively.
The door handle is wobbly.
Utilize the bolt-through holes on the latch to secure the handle roses together through the door.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Clean finish with no visible screw holes
- Enhanced stability via integrated side ribs
- Supports bolt-through fixing for door handles
- Includes both round and square strikes
Cons
- Not intended for external security doors
- Requires specifically sprung door furniture

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, drill a standard 25mm diameter hole into the edge of the door at the desired height. Simply push the latch body into the hole until the bezel is flush with the door edge. The side ribs will grip the wood to hold the mechanism in place.
Compatibility: This latch requires door furniture with a standard 8mm square spindle. It is recommended for use with sprung door handles.
Care: Periodically check the handle fixings to ensure they remain tight. If the latch becomes stiff, a small application of silicone-based lubricant to the latch bolt can restore smooth operation. Avoid using heavy oils that may attract dust and debris.
