Brass Finish Lockable Draw Catch

The National V1849 is a steel surface-mount latch with a bright brass finish. It is designed for securing trunks, chests, cases and similar items using a padlock. Each card contains one catch suitable for home improvement or restoration projects.

Accepts Padlock for Secured Closure

This catch features a built-in hasp that accepts a standard padlock to prevent unauthorised access. The mechanism latches tightly to keep lids or doors firmly closed. It provides a simple mechanical locking point without integrated keys or cylinders.

Surface Mount Installation

The catch installs with screws onto flat surfaces of the trunk or chest. Alignment between the catch body and the staple is critical for smooth latching. Misaligned screw holes or warped mounting surfaces are the most common causes of binding or failure to lock.

Questions about this item

How does the 3-1/2 inch length work on a real trunk or chest?

The 3-1/2 inch length spans the joint between lid and body, giving enough leverage for the steel hook to engage the keeper tightly while the brass finish resists corrosion on outdoor chests.

What does the surface-mount design mean for installation on wood or metal?

Surface mounting lets you screw the catch directly onto the outside face of the trunk without mortising, so it works on flat wood, plywood or metal panels with basic pilot holes.

What size padlock shackle fits through the 1849 catch?

The hasp hole accepts standard padlock shackles up to roughly 1/4 inch diameter, letting you secure trunks, cases or toolboxes with a common brass or steel padlock.
