    Tension Ball Catch 2.28"L, Dull Brass

    Description

    Tension Ball Catch 2.28"L Dull Brass For Doors

    Tension Ball Catch 2.28"L Dull Brass from EPCO is an adjustable tension ball catch designed for use wherever a simple catch is needed to hold a door closed without a keyed lock. The adjustable tension ball catch uses turn screws to adjust tension, so you can set how firmly the ball holds against the strike in everyday use. This catch belongs to the Locks and Latches Catches category, so it fits naturally into applications where controlled closing force is important for panels or doors. The case is made from solid brass, which provides a sturdy housing for the ball mechanism during repeated opening and closing. The dull brass finish offers a muted brass look that blends with similar dull brass hardware across a project. The 2.28 inch length gives a compact footprint that fits well in many edge-mount catch locations.

    Key EPCO Ball Catch Details For Daily Use

    • The adjustable tension ball catch feature lets you turn screws to change holding force, which helps match door feel to the weight and swing of the door in service.
    • The 2.28 inch length creates a compact catch body, which helps when working in tight door or cabinet edges where longer catches would interfere with nearby components.
    • The solid brass case construction provides a rigid housing for the ball mechanism, which supports consistent engagement over repeated cycles in typical door use.
    • The dull brass finish on the case offers a low-gloss brass appearance, which aligns visually with other dull brass hardware in the same room or cabinet run.
    • Placement in the Locks and Latches Catches category identifies this part as a catch rather than a lock, which suits doors that need holding force without keyed security.

    Adjustable Tension Catch Setup And Fit

    This adjustable tension ball catch uses turn screws to set the ball tension, giving control over how tightly the door is held when closed. By turning the screws on the catch, the ball position and spring load can be altered, which allows the installer to fine-tune engagement to the frame hardware. The 2.28 inch length defines the catch body size, so layout can be planned around that dimension on the door edge. The solid brass case supports the threaded areas around the screws, which helps the adjustment hold its setting once the desired tension is reached. The dull brass finish allows this catch to visually coordinate with other dull brass components in the installation zone.

    Using This EPCO Catch In Real Projects

    Where This Dull Brass EPCO Catch Fits Best

    This EPCO tension ball catch sits within the Locks and Latches Catches product class, so it is suited to doors or panels that must stay closed without a keyed mechanism. The 2.28 inch length keeps the unit compact along the mounting surface, which helps when positioning it on thinner doors or in cabinets where space near the edge is limited. The solid brass case gives the catch a defined profile that seats securely against the mounting surface during installation. Because the finish is dull brass, it aligns well with dull brass knobs, hinges, or other visible hardware in the same area, which supports a consistent visual line across the project. The manufacturer part number 1013-DB clearly identifies this specific dull brass version for situations where matching existing EPCO catches is important.

    How Adjustable Tension Supports Consistent Door Closing

    The adjustable tension ball catch design with turn screws to adjust tension allows the installer to balance holding force with door operation. Turning the screws changes how firmly the ball presses into the mating part, which can help reduce door rattle while avoiding excessive closing force in daily use. The solid brass case helps keep the screw threads stable as adjustments are made, supporting repeatable tension settings when several catches are being set on a job. Because this catch belongs to the Catches category, it is used strictly to hold the door in place, which simplifies layout compared to keyed locks. The dull brass finish on the case ties the functional adjustment hardware into a matching brass hardware scheme, which matters when catches are visible at the door edge.
