ABSTRACT:
A latch system which includes a latch bar slidable up and down on an interior of an enclosure door. The latch system has a rack member mounted on the latch bar extending through an orifice in the door to engage an actuator on the exterior of the door. The latch bar has glides and retainer clips mounted to the latch bar for positioning the bar relative to the door. The door may include a gasket for sealing an enclosure, with the latch bar mounting outside of the sealed area. Retainer fingers include a roller which engage a latch catch mounted to the enclosure frame. The finger members and the rack members are reversible for mounting in either direction so that the door may be reversed at any time. The latch catches are configured for receiving a finger member at either end for engagement of the door.
