FAQs

What is a hospital latch used for? It lets staff open a door without using their hands directly on a handle — pushing with a forearm or hip instead — reducing surface contact in infection-control-sensitive areas.

Are commercial hospital push pull latches fire-rated? Many are available in UL listed versions for fire-rated door assemblies. Verify specific model ratings for your application.

Can push pull latches be used in behavioral health units? For behavioral health applications, ligature-resistant hardware is required instead. See our Ligature Resistant Locks category.
