Product Overview: Willenhall 3000 Series Mortice Hook Latch

The Willenhall 3000 series mortice hook latch is specifically designed for sliding doors, providing a seamless and functional solution for your locking needs. This model does not include a locking snib but comes complete with a pair of stylish handles, previously branded as Century.
