Separating the Closure Action from Drawer Travel
I built the drawer frame and fitted its plywood base.
I added the rubber lining before attaching the slides to the cabinet and drawer.

My Takeaway from This Job
The slide gives the drawer its travel; the catch supplies a separate hold-and-release action. The two push-latch options use mating components inside the storage assembly, while the roller catch engages its strike between two rollers.
Drawer travel and the catch action are separate hardware choices.

Twelve latch-and-catch sets
Hardware Type
Separate catch and receiver
The drawer catches in my purchase record use separate pieces on the moving front and the surrounding cabinet. That makes the meeting point of the two pieces part of the drawer layout, alongside the slides and handle. For a camper-van storage project, a catch serves a different purpose from the pull used to open the drawer or the rail that supports its travel. Keeping those parts distinct is useful when organizing a hardware list. My original twelve-set purchase remains recorded here, and the existing product choices and build notes are preserved.
