Berrien Concrete's New Sliding Door Latch: Simple Security, Built to Last

Salem, OR – October 26, 2023 – Berrien Concrete LLC, a leading provider of precast concrete solutions based right here in Salem, Oregon, is excited to announce the launch of its brand new sliding door latch. You might be thinking, “Concrete and a door latch? What’s the connection?” Well, it’s all about our commitment to building things right, with durable materials that just…last. We’ve been building solid foundations for buildings and structures for years, and now we’re applying that same “built-to-last” philosophy to something you use every single day – keeping your sliding doors secure. For years, Berrien Concrete has been quietly building a reputation for quality precast concrete products – everything from decorative concrete pavers and retaining walls to specialized industrial components. We serve a diverse range of clients, including homeowners, contractors, and commercial developers throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond. What sets us apart? We don’t cut corners. We use high-quality materials, employ skilled craftsmen, and focus on delivering products that stand the test of time. Located at 2221 Hyacinth St NE Suite 150, Salem, OR, 97301, and reachable at 845-632-4677, we’re a local company committed to local quality. But we noticed something. A lot of sliding door latches on the market just…aren’t very good. They’re flimsy, made of cheap plastic, and break easily. They don't always give you that secure feeling you want, especially when you’re trying to keep your family and property safe. So, we thought, “Why not apply our concrete expertise to solve this problem?” That’s how the Berrien Concrete Sliding Door Latch was born. What makes our latch different? Let’s break it down. Forget those plastic latches that feel like they’ll snap with a strong gust of wind. This latch is built with a heavy-duty, cast concrete body. Yes, you read that right – concrete. Don’t worry, it’s not the massive concrete slabs we usually work with! We’ve carefully engineered a sleek, compact design that's both strong and visually appealing. Here's what you get with the Berrien Concrete Sliding Door Latch: Unmatched Durability: Concrete is naturally incredibly strong and weather-resistant. This latch won’t crack, warp, or break down from exposure to sun, rain, or extreme temperatures. We're talking years and years of reliable service. Serious Security: The weight and density of the concrete body make this latch incredibly difficult to force open. It's a significant upgrade in security compared to standard plastic latches. It’s not foolproof, of course, but it definitely raises the bar for would-be intruders. Simple Installation: We know not everyone is a DIY expert. That's why we designed this latch for easy installation. It comes with all the necessary mounting hardware and clear, step-by-step instructions. You should be able to have it installed in under 15 minutes. Sleek, Modern Design: Let’s face it, most sliding door latches aren’t exactly stylish. We wanted to create a latch that looks good too. The Berrien Concrete latch features a smooth, minimalist design that complements a wide range of door styles. It’s available in several finishes to match your décor. We currently offer a natural grey concrete finish, a charcoal black, and a painted white option. Surprisingly Affordable: You might think a concrete latch would be expensive. But we've streamlined our manufacturing process to keep costs down, so you get exceptional quality and durability at a price that won't break the bank. Beyond Sliding Doors: Where else can you use it? While designed primarily for sliding doors, we've already had customers come up with creative uses for our latch! Some are using it to secure sheds, gates, and even the doors of their outdoor storage boxes. Its versatility and rugged construction make it a great option for any application where you need a reliable, tamper-resistant latch. “We wanted to create something that people could rely on,” says Mark Johnson, CEO of Berrien Concrete LLC. “We’ve been building solid structures for decades, and we wanted to bring that same level of quality and durability to a small, everyday product. We believe this latch will give homeowners peace of mind knowing their doors are securely fastened.” Availability and Pricing The Berrien Concrete Sliding Door Latch is available for purchase directly from our website at [insert website address here – placeholder] and at select hardware stores throughout Oregon and Washington. The suggested retail price is $29.99. About Berrien Concrete LLC Berrien Concrete LLC is a leading provider of precast concrete solutions, serving the Pacific Northwest and beyond.
