Need part # for drawer catch

My Dutchmen 261BHS galley 2nd drawer plastic clip underside that holds it in place broken. Local hardware clips for drawers are not strong enough.

Anyone have access to some site to list part number breakdowns?

Or know where to purchase them from?

Thanks

I've given up on those plastic drawer catches. I ordered a few of these: Extruded Double-Ball Catches - Lee Valley Tools
I'll let you know how they work out when I get done installing a few.

Most RV stores have them cheap plastic jobs. This is what they used in our camper, of course plastic is cheaper, I guess that's why they quit using these.

I love this style of catch once it's adjusted properly. They just install them, they don't adjust them to hold as they should and can hold. That's the beauty of these is being able to adjust them for different needs. My tool drawer is cranked to the max, while the stationary drawer only needed about a 1/4 turn to hold.

That's too funny, I buy from Lee Valley Tools and last fall they had a big blowout on them. I couldn't find them on the Canadian site, so I went to Spokane Hardware. I remember seeing them on there site awhile back.

Alls fair in love and cross border shopping.

I like those latches, but not the color. This site has a match for just about any cabinet color.
Full disclosure, I have never ordered from this company.

I also had a lot of problems with those under drawer snap latches. So got rid of them and installed magnetic child safety locks. They work great. When you are parked, just leave the latch open, but when you are travelling, close the latch. The drawer will not budge. You need a magnet to open the latch and the drawer. Keep the magnet on the kitchen fan hood. Available at Lowe's & Home Depot. 4 to a package plus a magnet. We have them on 7 drawers.
