Sugatsune bar latch BL-100 is a 3-15/16 inch long 304 stainless steel latch designed to secure cabinet doors, bi-fold doors, and shutters, so one part style can serve multiple small-door applications in the shop or on-site. The polished stainless steel finish provides a modern look that suits visible cabinet locations while matching other stainless hardware in the job. Because the latch is made from 304 stainless steel, it delivers non-corrosive and low-maintenance performance, which supports long-term use in typical woodworking and millwork environments. A knurled thumb screw is integrated on the female strike, so the latch can be tightened by hand to hold the door closed without tools during normal operation. Tightening the thumb screw keeps the latch in the closed position, which helps reduce nuisance openings and supports a more controlled, repeatable door position.
This Sugatsune bar latch uses a bar and strike configuration to hold doors shut, so installers can position the 3-15/16 inch bar to span the door and frame or door pair as needed. Because the product is a latch with a knurled thumb screw on the female strike, closing and securing the door is handled at the strike location with simple hand operation. The latch is described as ideal for cabinets, bi-fold doors, and shutters, giving flexibility to apply the same operating method across these door types. The polished 304 stainless steel construction keeps the working surfaces smooth during handling, which supports consistent operation when the thumb screw is tightened and released.
The Sugatsune bar latch BL-100 is identified as ideal for cabinets, so it suits applications where a straightforward mechanical latch is needed to hold cabinet doors closed in shops, workrooms, or finished installations. Its suitability for bi-fold doors means it can be used to secure folding door leaves, supporting controlled closure where sliding or magnetic options are not desired. The product is also described as ideal for shutters, allowing the same latch style to be used on interior or sheltered shutters that benefit from a bar-style catch. Using a single 3-15/16 inch stainless bar latch across these applications helps standardize hardware choices on similar door sizes.
This bar latch uses a latch with knurled thumb screw on the female strike, so closure is held by tightening the screw rather than relying solely on spring tension. The knurled surface on the thumb screw gives better finger grip during operation, which helps users set the screw firmly without slipping during routine opening and closing. When the screw is tightened, it keeps the latch closed, providing a more deliberate locked position that resists casual movement of the door in everyday use. The 304 stainless steel and polished finish contribute to smooth screw rotation and contact at the strike, so the closing action remains consistent under normal conditions. By combining a defined 3-15/16 inch bar length with this thumb screw mechanism, the BL-100 offers a predictable closure point that supports repeatable alignment between the bar and strike during installation and ongoing use.
