A latch and catch assembly including a catch attachable to a first structure such as a door, and a latch mechanism attachable to a second structure such as a cabinet, the latch mechanism and the catch cooperating to secure the first structure relative to the second structure. The latch mechanism includes first and second hooks mounted for pivoting movement between an engagement position for engaging with the catch and a disengagement position for disengaging from the catch, a translating gear rail positioned between the first and second hooks coordinating pivoting movement of the first and second hooks, and an actuator mechanism for driving movement of the translating gear rail to drive the first and second hooks toward their disengagement position.
