2/10 Security Rating

The Union 2642 is a standard-duty mortice latch specifically designed for use on internal wooden doors. It provides a reliable latching function for doors that require lever or knob operation but do not need to be locked. This makes it an essential component for residential interiors, suitable for new installations or as a replacement for existing mortice latches.

This latch features a two-way action, meaning the latchbolt is easily withdrawn by turning the handle in either direction. It is engineered for compatibility with sprung lever furniture or lightweight mortice knobs. Please note that this unit is not suitable for use with unsprung lever handles, as these require a latch with a heavy-duty springing mechanism to return the handle to its horizontal position.

  • Function: Latchbolt withdrawn by handle from either side.
  • Compatibility: Suitable for timber doors hinged on either the left or right.
  • Construction: Features a galvanised steel case for durability and a solid brass latchbolt for consistent performance.
  • System Role: Typically used in conjunction with architectural door furniture on internal doors where privacy or security locking is not required.
