Used to securely close doors and cabinets with ease, slam latches are mechanical devices with spring-activation capabilities which allow them to fasten shut components without the need to secure them by hand. Often used in industries like transportation, construction, and aerospace, these rugged devices are critical to the safety of many systems. As such, they are approved for use in heavy-duty applications that require continued performance, meaning that they can be frequently opened and shut without causing damage to the mechanism.
