Boat Hatch Latches and Hardware


Boat hatch latches, handles, gas springs, locks, and hardware are crucial in maintaining your boat's safety and functionality. These marine latches secure compartments, prevent unwanted openings, and ensure watertight seals in various conditions. Fisheries Supply offers a comprehensive selection of high-quality boat latches, hatch hardware, and accessories to meet all your hatch-closing needs.

Types of Boat Latches and Hardware

  • Boat hatch latches: Secure hatches and prevent accidental openings.
  • Surface mount latches: External fasteners used to secure hatches, doors, and compartments.
  • Flush mount latches: Recessed fasteners that secure hatches, doors, and compartments with a sleek, low-profile design.
  • Slam latches: Quick-close fasteners that automatically secure hatches, doors, and compartments with a firm push.
  • T-handle latches: These manual fasteners have a T-shaped handle that makes it easy to open and close hatches, doors, and compartments.
  • Gas springs: Also known as gas struts or shocks, they provide controlled lifting and support for hatches, doors, and other heavy components.

Choosing the Right Marine Latches

When selecting boat hatch hardware, consider the following factors:
  • Intended use and location on the boat.
  • Lid or door weight and size.
  • If applicable, existing latch configurations.
  • Environmental conditions (e.g., offshore vs. inshore use).
Heavy-duty stainless steel boat hatch latches are recommended for offshore vessels, while center consoles and smaller boats may benefit from flush-mounted push-button latches for convenient access.

Maintenance and Replacement

Regular boat hatch latches and hardware maintenance is essential for optimal performance and longevity.

Some key maintenance tips include:
  • Clean latches and hardware with mild soap and water.
  • Lubricate moving parts to prevent corrosion and ensure smooth operation.
  • Inspect seals and gaskets regularly, replacing them as needed.
  • Check for loose fastenings or damaged components.
