I am looking for a black latch, one that can close a cabinet door by turning 90% to the left--the big box stores does not have what I want and I could not find one at lee valley on line. any ideas???  Bob,
Welcome to WoodNet.  I do not use a lot of hardware so my suggestions are limited to Woodcraft or Rockler.

I'm sure you will receive plenty of ideas from the good fudge on WN.
Van Dykes is another place you can look, but there are a lot of other cabinet hardware sources online.

Check Google Images to see if there is a picture of the type of latch you have in mind. Try different search phrases.

how about a pantry door latch?  I think LV has one. It's what a lot of companies call the first few images in Lyndon's first link
Are you looking for something like this gate hardware, but smaller?
