Ball Catch Installation
Typically, when installing ball catches, I mount the "strike" part of the
catch to the inside of the door first, see Fig. 1. (Make sure the strike is
just below the top of the cabinet.)
Next, I put the ball catch on the strike and closed the door, see Fig. 2.
This way, I can reach inside the cabinet and mark the pilot holes for the
ball catch in exactly the right position.
