Source for Cabinet Latches

[dfloeter]

After searching this site, the web and calling Catalina Direct I need help.   Two of our galley cabinet doors are held closed with brass bullet catches that are fine until we execute an unplanned 50 degree roll on a rogue and embarrassingly unnoticed  wave and crockery launches itself into the air.    The existing catches around the boat are mostly black plastic push buttons next to a simple U shaped handle.   The galley door design is ½" with a ¼ round teak strip along two edges.   

The nearest I can find to this latch is a Seadog brand, http://www.go2marine.com/product/387315F/sea-dog-cabinet-latch-push-button-push-button-cabinet-latch.html, from Go2marine but I hope to find a latch that is more similar to the originals.   

thanks

What did CTY say?   Did they know who they purchased them from?  (more likely whoever made the cabinets (H and L - out of business)  purchased them from?

Try calling Cesar (310) 538-5528  who was lead carpenter for H and L, and has his own biz now.
