Abstract

A latch receiver for receiving the hook of a hook latch has a metal C-shaped outer guard cover with parallel spaced apart side panels defining an open end that is a little wider than the width of the spaced apart sides of the latch enclosure. The C-shaped guard cover further has a planar back panel from which the side panels extend. Within the guard cover and spaced from the back panel is a rectangular receiver plate. Above and below the receiver plate are upper and lower end plates that support the receiver plate.
