How to replace a door latch?
On MeterBoxesDirect, all doors come with a latch. If you need to replace it, simply follow these two easy steps:
- Place the latch section on the inside of the door.
- From the outside, insert the wavy washer and then the latch post, clicking it into place.
The latch sold on MeterBoxesDirect is a universal locking mechanism, suitable for most gas and electric meter box doors. This quick and straightforward replacement process ensures durability and ease of use.
Each door lock kit includes a wavy washer, a star lock washer, and a lock, all sold together in a single pack. You can find these in our Meter Box Repair Kit as well. The latch measures 40mm in height, 21.5mm in width, and 3.3mm in thickness. If you need guidance on fitting a replacement meter box latch, watch our tutorial video for step-by-step instructions.
