What Are Multipoint Latches?
Multipoint latches, also called 3-point latches, are often used as a locking mechanism for large doors and cabinets. Multipoint latches use a central handle with two long bars extending vertically from the handle, which slide up and down to engage keepers attached to the door frame or enclosure. The bars connect to a rotating mechanism linked to the handle, allowing the handle to extend and retract the bars when turned and locking all points on the door in a single motion.
Multipoint latches are extremely common on semi-trailer doors and in electronic enclosures, as multipoint locks are a requirement of NEMA standards.
