drawer latches with extensions

these extensions are made by gluing two pieces of wood together, one with a groove/channel that accepts a piece of aluminum bar stock without restriction (1/8 inch x 3/4 inch) and the other thick enough to space the channel out the proper distance from the drawer front (about 5/16 I think)to match up the channel with the latch. Once they are glued together you cut them and the bar stock to the length you need them to be - the piece of wood must be at least 1/8 inch above the top of the latch to give it room to work. The piece of aluminum bar stock is held in place by gravity - no springs needed - and is long enough to go behind the face frame of the cabinet when extended.
