Front adjustable catch

An adjustable mechanism comprising

• a housing, said housing having one or more side walls and a face plate, said face plate having an opening therein, such that said opening communicates with an interior portion of said housing;
• a front plate adapted to be positioned over said face plate, said front plate being provided with an opening that is generally aligned with the opening in the face plate and shaped so that a catch means can retractably pass through said opening and
• an adjustable plate positioned in said housing said adjustable plate having a base section with a top surface and a bottom surface, said adjustable plate being prevented from undergoing rotational movement in said housing, said base section having a threaded portion that is adapted to receive a threaded member on a mounting frame, said adjustable plate having one or more prongs extending upwardly from said top surface that mate with corresponding recesses in the face plate;
• said mounting frame having a base with a top side and a bottom side and wherein the bottom side of the base has the threaded member extending therefrom into said threaded portion of said adjustable plate and wherein the top side of the mounting frame has said catch means and wherein the height of said catch means may be adjusted when the catch means is pushed into said housing and rotated thus causing the threaded member to change the height of the catch means.
