all i am interested in is where can i get that jaw that is on a door that grabs the looped bolt on the body and holds the door shut until you pull the lever to open it back up.

not the hinges but on the opposit side of the door

id post a pic if it wasnt so late

good find but it wont help in my case.

i wont have gravity on my side to keep the latch in place.

i also thought of a spring loaded latch but i want to keep that as a last resort

those jaws are the best thing i can think of to do the trick

if i know the exact name of the jaws than it would probably be easier to find such a thing
