Need help to find a type of door latch

[eagerb]

Sorry if this is a stupid question.

The problem: I have a pair of wooden french doors, leading to the garden. The left door is secured by two lever action flush bolts at the top and bottom, and the right door has a standard 5-lever sashlock which engages with the left door.

So far, so ordinary. The problem is that in order to form a proper draughtproof seal, the doors need to be pulled closed tightly against the frame, and the bolts and lock don't do that.

What I would like is some kind of lock or catch that I can fit to the door or frame that will use a lever action to engage and pull the door tightly shut. Preferably something that doesn't need huge amounts of rebating / routing / other joinery work to fit (though a little bit is not a problem).

I can't find anything like this on any of the ironmongery sites though. Do such things exist? Can anyone suggest something suitable, or suggest a name of something to look for?

Fit 2 bolts on the right hand door that are a tight fit, pulling the door into the frame.

Like these:

Thanks for that suggestion, however I am particularly looking for something that doesn't need a key to operate, and which actually pulls the door tight as it is engaged. Maybe something like the catches that are used with UPVC doors, but which can be fitted to wooden units.

I have the same set up and doors fit snugly, you doors need rehanging as they should fit correctly , door handles won't solve the problem, only correct fitting will.
