Metal Fabrication

Paco manufactures custom galley hardware for many airframes.

Paco’s Hardware Division specializes in the manufacturing of interior galley hardware for use in the aircraft industry. Our shorter lead times and competitive prices coupled with our quality and manufacturing experience gives us the ability to service our customers with consistent quality and delivery.

Latches are used in conjunction with a "strike" to secure doors or drawers in the aircraft galleys. These latches and their subcomponents are manufactured from stainless steel and anodized aluminum where corrosion resistance, strength and weight are required. Flush flap latches, some with locks and standard detent along with detent latches are commonly used in our industry.

Paco’s manufacturing also includes 1/4 turn retainers, door hold-open, baggage latches, escutcheons, handles and pulls and interior latches. We can manufacture your custom aircraft hardware to the highest quality standards as we have done for hundreds of customers over the years.

Paco will manufacture your custom metal parts for your needs- particularly those with high quality standards. An example would be drawer slides for aircraft galleys: Drawer slides are made from aluminum which is anodized (and sometimes painted). They are precision-made, lightweight slides and come in various lengths and ranges.

Aircraft Latches: Certified latches for galley doors and drawers
1/4 Turn Retainers: Various sized retainers for latching and secondary latching of doors, drawers and galley carts
Interior Aircraft Hardware: Commercial aircraft hardware for galleys and baggage door latches
