cerradero/cerradura


Explanation:
or
"cerraduro" (which is the "striker", see below) and "ganche"
http://www.proz.com/kudoz/english_to_spanish/automotive_cars...

Place the force application device and force application plate against the door so that the applied force is horizontal and normal to the vehicle's longitudinal centreline, and vertically centred on the door-mounted portion of the latch/striker.

Page 3 gives English definitions for everything you would like to know about doors.

Colocar el dispositivo y la placa de aplicación de fuerzas contra la puerta, de forma que la fuerza aplicada sea horizontal y perpendicular al eje longitudinal del vehículo, y centrada verticalmente en la parte montada en la puerta del conjunto cerradura/cerradero.

Page 3 gives Spanish definitions for everything you would like to know about doors.

‘Latch’ is a device employed to maintain the door in a closed position relative to the vehicle body
with provisions for deliberate release (or operation).

«Cerradura» es el dispositivo que se emplea para mantener la puerta en posición cerrada respecto
a la carrocería del vehículo y que permite su liberación (o manejo) deliberada.

‘Striker’ is a device with which the latch engages to maintain the door in the fully latched or
secondary latched position.

«Cerradero» es un dispositivo que engancha la cerradura para mantener la puerta en una posición
de cierre total o en una posición de cierre secundario.

Strike and latch/catch are of course two different parts of the door and demand two different terms. GL.
