This versatile housing is engineered to fit both the top and bottom latch assemblies, providing a protective shield for the internal mechanical components.

The Sargent 28-0119 is frequently replaced due to damage from heavy equipment or floor scrubbers, particularly on the bottom latch assembly. A missing or dented cover isn't just an aesthetic issue—it can lead to mechanical binding if the internal latch members are exposed to debris. Replacing a damaged cover is an easy way to ensure your SVR hardware continues to latch and release smoothly.
Installation Note: To ensure the 28-0119 cover remains securely attached and rattle-free, the underlying latch assembly must be perfectly stable. We recommend anchoring your 3727 device using high-strength thru bolts. A rock-solid, thru-bolted connection prevents the lateral vibration that often causes latch cover screws to loosen or strip out over time.
