Overview

The Perko 1194DP0CHR is a 3" swivel eye hasp in chrome-plated zinc alloy for securing small lockers, cabinet doors, and access compartments on board. It has a 3" closed length, a 1" overall width, and an 11/32" padlock clearance, so it fits the kind of compact spaces where a full-size latch would be bulky.

The swivel eye acts as the latch, which keeps the hardware simple and easy to use when you need quick access during the day and a padlock point when the boat is left at the dock. The mounting pattern is sized for #6 fasteners, making it a straightforward replacement choice when you are matching existing small hasp hardware.

Key features

• Swivel eye functions as the latch, reducing the number of moving parts in the closure.
• Chrome-plated zinc alloy construction with a bright finish that suits visible hardware locations.
• 3" closed length and 1" overall width for compact mounting on lockers, cabinets, and small compartment doors.
• 11/32" padlock clearance; check shackle size if the hasp will be used with a lock.
• Mounts with #6 screws, which helps when replacing similar small marine hardware.

Compatibility and fit

This hasp is sized for lighter-duty closure points such as cabin lockers, storage boxes, tackle compartments, and small hatch or door panels. It makes more sense in trim work and joinery than in places that need a heavy structural latch.

Before ordering, check the available flat mounting area for both pieces and confirm that your chosen padlock shackle will pass through the 11/32" clearance. On refit jobs, the #6 screw size can also help when you are trying to reuse an existing hole pattern or stay close to it.

Installation and setup

For clean operation, the hasp and keeper need to sit square so the swivel eye can drop into place without binding. On a boat, that usually means checking alignment with the door or lid fully closed and making sure the hardware clears nearby trim, gasket material, and padlock swing.

The compact 1" width helps in tight mounting spots where larger hardware can interfere with neighboring hinges, frames, or molded edges. It is a practical choice for owners replacing worn latch hardware and wanting a simple padlockable closure without changing the layout much.

Use on board

This style of hardware suits boats that need a neat closure on cabin furniture, utility lockers, or small storage spaces where quick hand access matters. It also works well for owners who want one latch point that can stay unpadlocked during normal use and be locked when the boat is unattended.
