Newace Truck Toolbox Paddle Latch Replacement — 1-Pack with Lock, 304 Stainless, Rust-Resistant, Includes 2 Keys

Newace 304 stainless-steel paddle latch with keyed lock replaces worn truck toolbox latches for a secure, rust-resistant closure.

If your truck, trailer, UTV or camper toolbox has a broken or corroded latch, this Newace replacement kit restores a reliable locking paddle handle quickly. Built from 304 stainless steel and a zinc-alloy cylinder, the latch is made to endure outdoor exposure while keeping your tools and gear safely contained. The kit ships with a gasket and two matching keys so you can swap the lock without sourcing extra parts.

How does this latch perform in wet or salty conditions?

The paddle handle and exterior plate are 304 stainless steel, chosen for its corrosion resistance and long service life in outdoor environments. The lock cylinder uses a zinc-alloy housing and features a shuttered keyway to limit dust and moisture intrusion.

• 304 stainless exterior resists rust and pitting
• Zinc-alloy cylinder balances strength and cost
• Shuttered keyway reduces dirt and water entry
• Gasket included to improve sealing at the mount surface

Will this fit my toolbox and how do I measure for compatibility?

The latch’s outer plate measures 4-3/8" x 3-1/4", a common size for many aftermarket and OE toolboxes. To confirm fit, measure your existing latch’s outer plate and hole pattern; this kit is designed as a drop-in replacement for many popular brands and styles.

• Overall plate: 4-3/8" x 3-1/4"
• Includes gasket to match flush mount cutouts
• Works with many UWS, Better Built, Dee Zee, Kobalt-type boxes
• Check existing latch bolt and hole spacing before ordering

What’s included and how easy is installation?

The package contains one stainless steel paddle latch, one mounting gasket and two identical keys so you can lock and unlock immediately. Installation is straightforward: remove the old latch, position the gasket, align the new plate, and secure the assembly with the existing fasteners or supplied hardware if needed.

• 1 stainless steel paddle latch (exterior assembly)
• 1 foam or rubber gasket for sealing
• 2 matching keys for the cylinder
• Simple bolt-on swap for most truck/toolbox applications

Who is this for? If you own a pickup, trailer, UTV, ATV or camper toolbox and need a durable replacement latch that resists weather and simplifies key access, this Newace kit is built for you. It’s suited to DIYers and fleet managers who want a corrosion-resistant, keyed paddle handle that installs quickly and restores secure storage for tools and equipment.
