Hatch & Cabinet Latch FAQs
What is marine hatch latch?
A marine hatch latch ( same as marine cabinet latch ) is a specialized latch designed for securing hatches on boats, yachts, and other marine vessels. These latches are built to withstand the harsh conditions of the marine environment, including:
Corrosion Resistance: Marine hatch latches are typically made from materials like stainless steel or high-grade plastics that can resist rust and corrosion caused by saltwater exposure.
Durability: They are built to be robust and able to withstand strong vibrations, impacts, and the constant movement of a vessel at sea.
Security: Marine hatch latches often feature locking mechanisms for added security, preventing accidental opening due to rough seas or unauthorized access.
Weatherproofing: They are designed to keep water out of the hatch, even in heavy rain or splashing waves.
