Elbow Catches 1-5/16 L Bright Zinc from Amerock Corporation provide a compact catch and strike solution for cabinet and casework doors where a simple mechanical latch is needed. The catch is described with a length of 1-5/16 inch, width of 1 inch, and height of 1 inch, so the hardware occupies a small footprint on the mounting surface while still giving a defined hold point for the door. The strike is described with a length of 1 inch, width of 7/16 inch, and height of 1/4 inch, giving a low-profile target for the elbow to engage and reducing interference near door edges or tight reveals. The elbow catch is described as zinc plated with a bright zinc appearance, which provides a uniform metallic finish that visually matches other bright zinc cabinet hardware. The product is listed in the Locks and Latches category under Catches, so it is positioned as a straightforward catch solution for woodworking and cabinet projects.
The described catch length of 1-5/16 inch and width of 1 inch provide a simple rectangular mounting area, so installers can lay out screw positions knowing the body stays within those dimensions on the frame or cabinet member. The catch height of 1 inch defines how far the body extends off the surface, which helps in planning door gaps so the elbow can pivot and engage the strike without rubbing. The strike length of 1 inch and narrow 7/16 inch width give a compact footprint, allowing placement near the door edge where space is limited. The 1/4 inch strike height keeps the mating point low, which is useful when working under shelves or within shallow cases where vertical clearance is tight.
This Amerock Corporation elbow catch is presented as a matched catch and strike pairing, so the two components are dimensioned to work together on cabinet and casework doors where a positive hold is needed. With the catch body measuring 1-5/16 inch by 1 inch by 1 inch, it suits applications where the installer is working on face frames, partitions, or cabinet sides and needs the latch hardware to sit within a compact area. The strike, described at 1 inch by 7/16 inch by 1/4 inch, can be located on the door or mating surface so that the elbow engages consistently in the same location every time the door is closed. Because the product falls under the Locks and Latches category with the product class of Catches, it aligns with projects where a simple mechanical catch is preferred over more complex locking hardware.
The web description highlights that the strike plate has an extra screw hole to prevent spinning on plastic laminate, which means once fastened the strike holds its orientation on smooth laminate faces and keeps the elbow landing point fixed. This stability reduces the likelihood of the strike rotating out of position after repeated door cycles, which can otherwise lead to misalignment and the need to reposition the hardware. The defined catch and strike dimensions give installers exact size references, supporting accurate layout when multiple doors must align across a bank of cabinets. Knowing that the finish is bright zinc over zinc plating allows shops standardizing on bright zinc hardware to coordinate components visually, which keeps cabinet runs consistent when paired with other bright zinc items listed by Wurth Baer Supply for the woodworking industry.
