Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com, and today, we're gonna take a look at this flush-mounted T-handle latch with link rods. This flush-mounted locking latch with faceplate, T-handle, and link rods will work great on your ATV, UTV, toolbox, your trailer tongue box, and your trailer or truck toolbox just to name a few ways in which this will work for you. And this features a stainless steel latch body and T-handle and zinc plated link rods and lock, and this also includes two rod guides and two keys. And let me give you a brief demonstration of how this is going to work. Let me make sure I have the key in the right way. And so, as you can see, you give it a quarter turn, and then that's going to lock the T-handle, and then turn it back a quarter turn, and then that will unlock the T-handle.
So this feels pretty heavy-duty, it's a pretty smooth operation, see how it works there And that T-handle then is going to fold down flushed, and it's going to be completely out of your way. Now, this latch will mount in a 2 3/4 inch by 3 3/4 inch hole, and on your screen I am including a diagram to give you some measurements that you will find helpful when considering if this is going to work for you. The dimensions of the latch itself is 4 3/4 inches long by 4 3/4 inches tall, and then the mounting holes are 3 3/4 inches on center horizontally, and 3 1/4 inches on center vertically. So again, that diagram will give you some other measurements that I'm not covering with you here today that should prove helpful for you. Speaking of measurements, taking an overhead look, these are the rods that are included with this.
Let me put a tape measure on one of these rods, and as you can see there, these rods are going to be 48 inches long each, and the ends of the rods are circular. And when these are locked, they're going to have an overall length of 97 3/4 inches, and then when they are unlocked, the overall length will be 96 inches. Well, that's gonna conclude our brief look today, I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me..

Flush mounted latch with stainless steel faceplate and T-handle with zinc-plated link rods and durable locking cylinder.
Very hard to find. Worked well on a custom tool box.
The handle worked great. The only thing I would change would be a better anchoring system for the rods.
The latch arrived on time and was satisfactory. I will continue to do business with Etrailer
etrailer sold me junk. Several things about this part and the service I received: 1) Only the pan for the latch is stainless. All of the underlying mechanism is zinc-plated carbon steel or aluminum die-cast and the handle appears to be chrome-plated die-cast. 2) The lock mechanism broke easily on a day that I forgot to unlock it and just twisted the handle with it locked. A thief would have no problem opening it. 3) I contacted customer service and they told me that they would not accept a return and instead offered $[XX] off. Look, junk is junk, regardless of the price, but I countered with a request for 50% off. My other offer was for them to keep their refund and I would write a review telling the truth about their merchandise and their customer service. You can see which option they chose. The customer service falls a little short. They would rather have a bad review than let loose of $30 partial refund for a substandard part.
We ordered as a replacement and this worked perfectly.
Wish they came with some installation instructions/suggestions but they are nice heavy-duty latches. This was the only place on the interwebs we could find them with link rods. Etrailer also treated us with excellent customer service and fast shipping time to New York. I would definitely recommend etrailer and will use them in the future.
works exactly as described! Quick ship ping!
Having a shop tool cart needing to have the lower OPEN area secured, i made a steel angle door frame along with expanded metal and used this beauty to secure (lock) the lower formerly open area. Flawless victory.
Exact match to what was on the doors originally. Even the same key. Only difference is the new ones lock. Thank you so much!
Could have had more mounting holes
Great experience..Super fast shipment.. I was pretty surprised how big the box was for such a small item, but it certainly wasn't damaged in anyway. Thanks!
Good product, good service! I also appreciate that the shipping options were reasonable.
