Description
A hex baby latch is a type of latch mechanism designed to secure doors, cabinets, or other enclosures. It consists of a hexagonal-shaped latch body with a spring-loaded bolt inside. The latch is operated by turning a hex key or similar tool inserted into the hexagonal socket on the front of the latch. When the hex key is turned clockwise, the bolt retracts, allowing the door or cabinet to open. When the hex key is turned counterclockwise, the bolt extends, engaging with a strike plate or other surface to keep the door or cabinet securely closed.
Hex baby latches are commonly used in furniture, cabinets, and small enclosures where a compact and discreet latch mechanism is desired. They offer easy operation and provide a secure closure, preventing accidental opening of the door or cabinet. With their hexagonal design, hex baby latches offer a distinctive and aesthetically pleasing look, making them suitable for various applications where both functionality and style are important.
