NRH 5206-83K Lockable Toggle Latch – Chrome Plated with Padlock Hole

NRH 5206-83K Lockable Toggle Latch - Chrome Plated Mild Steel, Padlock Hole, Economical Security for Toolboxes & Cabinets

For toolboxes, electrical cabinets, coin boxes, and other equipment requiring theft deterrence or access control, a standard latch is not enough. The NRH 5206-83K is a lockable toggle latch (draw latch) with an integrated padlock hole. Made from mild steel with a bright chrome plating, it offers strength, corrosion resistance, and a shiny finish at an economical price. The padlock hole accepts a standard padlock - when the latch is closed, a padlock can be inserted to physically prevent opening. The over‑center toggle mechanism provides crisp action and resists vibration loosening. Rated for 147N (approx. 15kg) load at just 30g, it's lightweight yet dependable. Overall length approx. 84mm with 2×Φ4.2mm mounting holes for simple surface mounting. Ideal for toolboxes, control cabinets, electrical panels, coin boxes, telecom enclosures, and meter boxes. Clear NRH branding and heritage since 1996 assure quality.

Manufactured under ISO 9001. REACH, RoHS compliance available on request. OEM/ODM modifications (finish, logo) welcome. 2D/3D CAD drawings supplied.

Key dimensions (see drawing): overall length approx. 84mm, mounting holes 2×Φ4.2mm. Padlock hole position as shown. Follow drawing for precise installation.

Padlock Hole Design - From Secured to Locked

A standard latch only keeps a door closed; it doesn't prevent intentional opening. This lockable latch features a dedicated padlock hole. When the latch is engaged, a standard padlock can be inserted through the hole, locking the handle in place. Made from chrome plated mild steel, it balances strength, corrosion resistance, and cost - perfect for indoor and sheltered outdoor applications.

Applications - Where Theft Deterrence and Safety Lockout Matter

• Toolboxes / tool cabinets - prevent tool theft, add a padlock for security
• Electrical panels / control cabinets - lockout to prevent unauthorized operation
• Coin boxes / vending machines - secure cash compartments
• Telecom cabinets / base station enclosures - outdoor protection, vandalism deterrence
• Electric meter boxes / power distribution units - anti‑tamper, access control
• Exhibition display cases / valuables cases - lock during transport or storage
• Medical equipment cases / first aid kits - control access to medicines and instruments

Installation - Simple Surface Mount

Align the latch base with pre‑drilled holes on the case. Secure with M4 screws or rivets through the 2×Φ4.2mm mounting holes. After installation, close the latch and verify that the padlock hole aligns with the base hole; a standard padlock should pass through easily.
