Description
Overview
This recessed paddle lock is a compact stainless steel latch designed for marine doors, hatches and lockers where a flush finish is essential. The lock body measures 120x92mm and includes a sealing gasket and two keys. Because it has no interior release, it works best for secure exterior access points on boats and trailers. Part Number (ID) PL120L-SS.

Compatibility and Fitment
This recessed paddle lock fits most marine and trailer doors that accept a 120x92mm latch footprint. However, because door thickness and striker arrangements vary, measure your existing aperture and confirm clearance for the 42.5mm body depth before cutting. In addition, check that the supplied gasket sits evenly between the latch flange and panel to achieve the best seal.
Compliance and Safety
This product has a locking mechanism with no interior release. Therefore, do not install it in compartments that require emergency exit. Instead, position the lock only where safe exterior-only access is intended. By doing so, you can align with common vessel safety practices and local regulations.
Marine Applications
You can use this recessed paddle lock on deck lockers, transom doors, cockpit storage, and trailer or canopy doors. Since the stainless steel body resists harsh marine service, it performs well in outdoor applications. Nevertheless, regular rinsing and periodic cleaning with fresh water will extend its service life and preserve its polished finish.
