    Alligator LAtch for my wine cabinet

    Attached is a picture from a wine cabinet that the man called an alligator latch It is spring loaded and actrs to draw the door up tight against a seal when closed. There are two located on each door. Has anyone ever seen these or do they know where I can locate some? I have tried Rockler at first but no success.

    THanks

    Tim,

    I can't help with the alligator latch, but if you give me a few hours I can rustle up an alligator or two from the water hazards at the golf course down the way.

    I guess my public must be pretty huge then.
