    Default Model IV Door Latch Catch

    I'm looking for a good way to attach the model IV door latch striker to fuselage?

    Hysol adhesive, but move it a little ways forward to the center of the door. It will hold both the rear and the front of the door closed tighter there.

    I made a bit more of a complicated door latch, but am happy with how they came out. JImChuk

    Hoenshel, I don't seem to be allowed to edit my post. I was mistaken about where your door latch catch is positioned. It is in the correct location in you photo.
