A compression latch for a closure comprising a latch mount having an inboard side and an outboard side and a latch member having a first end and a second end; and a drive shaft configured to drive the compression latch. The shaft is actuated remotely. The drive shaft is pivotably connected to the mount at a first link pivot point, the first link pivot point having a first longitudinal axis. The latch member first end is pivotably connected to the mount at a latch member pivot point remote from the first link pivot point and inboard thereof, the latch member pivot point having a second longitudinal axis substantially parallel to the first longitudinal axis. The latch member is pivotable about the latch member pivot point between an open position and a closed position. The latch member is connected to the drive shaft by a linkage such that the latch member is moveable between said open position and said closed position by rotation of the drive shaft. The latch member comprises a striker at its second end.
