Jeffrey Alexander CECOMINOD027211 Cabinet Latch Review

This was a solid closet latch that I installed on the casement windows in my entryway. The previous locks didn't hold up when it got windy, but these work well.

Terrible. They don't lock well, let alone keep closet doors closed. I think they are for decorative purposes only. Absolute waste of time and money. Send back.

The handle will not engage and is therefore completely non-functional. Found right after installation. Hopefully this means I don't have extra holes in my closet if I install another one.

Seems solid with nice finish but no fitting instructions - and worse, handle doesn't turn easily and spring doesn't close bolt - Had to add lube for lock with moderate amount Success - And 2 screw heads broke during installation - Now facing a much bigger dilemma/project to fix :(- Very disappointed. Will be back -

Handle is difficult to turn but may become easier over time. However, it also uses a metal guide against a plastic part, meaning it has to wear out over a long period of time. I might recommend it for something that's rarely used, but if it's used frequently I'd look for something better. is it good for the price Hard to say. If it lasts 5 years with weekly use I'll be happy and surprised but time will tell.
