1-649CA TOOL-OPERATED FLUSH-MOUNTABLE LATCH Abstract of the Disclosure A tool-operated latch has a body which is mountable on the back side of a door panel adjacent an elongate opening and a hole formed through the door panel. An elongate latch lever is pivotally carried by the body and is movable between a latched position wherein the latch lever is nested with respect to the elongate door opening, and an unlatched position wherein the latch lever is extended with respect to the elongate door opening. A tool-operable actuator is journaled by the door panel hole and by the latch body, and is movable by a specially configured tool between locked and unlocked positions. A pawl is pivotally carried by the body for movement between a retaining position wherein it engages the latch lever to releasably retain the latch lever in its nested, latched position, and a releasing position wherein the pawl releases the latch lever thereby permitting he latch lever to be moved to its unlatched, extended position. The tool-operable actuator provides a cam member which cooperates with the pawl to effect movement of the pawl from its retaining position to its releasing position as the actuator is moved from its locked position to its unlocked position.
