No no no....

Modification.

I'm thinking piano hinge material and some of these. They could be riveted to the plastic material easily. Get fancy and put a 1/4" strip of foam around the edge of the panel(s) you cut away, overlapping the edge to get a seal.

So, these are sort of good. I have worked on many ambulances with these types of latches, and have to say that after a while things will shrink and expand and they won't seal perfectly anymore. So you get clattery and shaky doors. I highly reccomend adjustable trigger latches like below. They latch just as well, but the bolt on the back makes the tension held on the closed door or drawer adjustable, so if things move or expand, you simply have to turn the screw a bit, instead of jamming shims in closed doors to stop the rattle. You can find them cheaper than this. But this was what I found right away. Just my thoughts. https://www.amazon.com/Southco-C2-33-37-Non-Locking-Lever-Trigger/dp/B01BG1HNI8/ref=asc_df_B01BG1HNI8/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=167119394598&hvpos=1o2&hvnetw=g&hvrand=4176747316469274459&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1027991&hvtargid=aud-643191255296:pla-315826124101&psc=1

Amazon is your friend here

I found this cute little guy. Less than 2 inches long.

The keyholes would be in the butt side of the joint. The edge of the boards that you want to join up together. You'd recess the keyhole into the wood and have the key at the right depth so that the edges join up nicely when the key(s) are in the keyhole(s).

As for something to attach to the underside, some kind of cam/lever based latch might work, something heavy duty like this. As long as you have some kind of solid system for alignment, that should work ok to hold it together I'd guess.

Sadly yeah, it has to be about the same size as this https://www.amazon.ca/Southco-E6-10-301-20-Adjustable-Copolymer-Symmetric/dp/B00GM5G89E

So around 5x4 cm.
