Sugatsune bar latch BL-35 is a 1-3/8 inch (35mm) bar latch designed as a compact latch solution for bi-fold doors, shutters, and cabinets. The latch is made from 304 stainless steel, which resists corrosion and supports long-term performance in typical woodworking and interior environments. A polished stainless steel finish gives the latch a modern look that blends into contemporary cabinet, shutter, and door hardware layouts. The small overall size fits well on narrow stiles and rails where larger latches do not suit the layout. This latch is part of Sugatsune America hardware offerings, aligning with applications that need a simple mechanical way to hold doors and shutters closed in everyday use.
This Sugatsune 1-3/8 inch (35mm) bar latch functions as a small-format latch that suits cabinet doors, bi-fold doors, and shutters, so it can be positioned where short latching travel is sufficient. The latch description notes a latch with knurled thumb screw on the female strike, which indicates the bar engages a strike designed to tighten and hold the bar in a closed position. Tightening the thumb screw keeps the latch closed, which helps resist casual opening under vibration or light pulling. The description also states that there is no thumb screw on BL-35, which sets this specific model apart from other sizes in the same family and clarifies that closure is achieved by the bar engaging the mating strike without an adjustable screw on the latch body.
The web description notes this bar latch as ideal for bi-fold doors and shutters, so it suits applications where paired or folding panels must stay closed in normal use. The same description states that the small size is perfect for cabinets, which means the 1-3/8 inch (35mm) format can be used on cabinet doors without dominating the door face. Because it is categorized under locks and latches, specifically bolts, hasps and latches, it plays a straightforward role in keeping doors, shutters, or cabinet fronts in the closed position. The polished stainless finish allows the latch to sit visibly on door or shutter faces while maintaining a clean appearance that coordinates with stainless hinges, pulls, or other visible hardware in a project.
The 304 stainless steel material provides a consistent base for the moving bar, helping the latch maintain alignment between the bar and the strike as doors and shutters are used repeatedly. The non-corrosive, low-maintenance quality described for the stainless steel products means the latch is designed to resist rust in typical interior conditions, which supports smooth operation over time. The modern finish on the polished stainless surface keeps the latch visually consistent even as it is handled frequently in daily use. The mention of a latch with knurled thumb screw on the female strike, together with the note that BL-35 itself has no thumb screw, clarifies how the system is intended to hold closed: the bar works with a corresponding strike that provides the clamping action. This separation of bar and strike function helps installers and shops choose the BL-35 when a simple bar is required within an existing or planned strike arrangement.
The Sugatsune BL-35 bar latch has a 1-3/8 inch (35mm) bar length, which suits compact layouts on cabinets, bi-fold doors, and shutters where only a short latching distance is required.
The BL-35 bar latch works with a female strike, and tightening the knurled thumb screw on that strike keeps the latch closed, providing a mechanical hold against casual opening.
The BL-35 bar latch itself does not have a thumb screw on the latch body, which differentiates it from other sizes that use a thumb screw directly on the latch.
The 304 stainless steel construction offers non-corrosive, low-maintenance performance, helping the BL-35 latch operate smoothly and retain appearance in normal woodworking and interior applications.
The BL-35 bar latch is described as ideal for bi-fold doors and shutters, and its small size is described as perfect for cabinets, covering common interior door and cabinet applications.
