A Lesson in Latches

I ordered some roller latches from Amazon that we would use to put a drawer front on. Our Monaco had a spot back in the bedroom that had used them to snap a panel in place- which is where I got the idea.
I am here to inform you that not all roller latches are the same.




There is one big subtle difference between these two...


You might notice where the screw tabs are on the roller attachment.
The one on the left will not work in RVs- The wood framing is not thick enough.

Here is a photo of the correct latch attached:


And here is a photo of the drawer front:



FYI- We bought the correct latches from Dyers Online.
