What is LATCH SYSTEM?

  • LATCH, which stands for “Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren”, is designed to make proper car seat installation easier.

  • LATCH is standard in all cars manufactured after September 1, 2002, and eliminates the need for the use of passenger seatbelts to secure the car seats.
  • The LATCH system has two permanent anchors at the base of vehicle’s rear seats and a top anchor behind each seating position in all vehicles.  These anchors are specifically designed for car seat tethers and hooks.
