Before ordering
- Choose small, medium, or large by the box size, lid weight, and visible hardware scale. Small latches suit jewelry boxes; larger latches suit trunks and storage cases.
- Check that the lid and box body meet evenly. The toggle arm and catch plate must align before drilling holes.
- Measure available front-panel space, screw-hole spacing, and edge distance so the latch does not sit too close to a corner or hinge line.
- Confirm panel thickness and screw length, especially on thin trunks or lined cases.
- Use reinforcement or backing blocks when mounting to soft wood, plywood, leather-covered board, or flexible case walls.
- Match the silver, gold, or black finish with hinges, locks, handles, corner guards, rivets, and decorative tacks.
