ABSTRACT:
A cabinet latch is flush mounted on a cabinet door panel by a flanged conical cup which is inserted into a precut hole in the door panel. A push-on retainer clip presses against the inner surface of the door panel and holds the outward flange of the conical cup against the outer surface of the door panel. The head of the latch pawl shaft is received within the cup. In thin door installations, where the thickness of the door is less than the depth of the conical cup, a second cup is mounted on the pawl shaft on the inside of the door panel and a push-on retainer clip presses against an inward flange of the inner cup to hold both cups against the door panel, the outward flange of the outer cup pressing against the outer surface of the door panel and the outer flange of the inner cup pressing against the inner surface of the door panel.
