A mechanical fastener designed to join two surfaces while allowing for their regular separation. This gate latch features an elaborately designed ring that can be lifted and twisted to release. Crafted from high-quality steel with a black powder coating, it offers durability and resistance to the elements, making it ideal for external use. Its sturdy construction ensures reliability, while the black powder coating protects against wear and tear. This versatile latch has multiple applications, serving as a gate latch for wooden gates, a door latch, a shed door lock, and garden gate latches and catches. It is weatherproof and suitable for outdoor use, providing security for yards, especially when children or pets are present, as the lift and twist release can prevent unsupervised access. The gate locks are surface-fixed for easy installation and come with colour-matched screws. The latch allows you to open your gate from the inside or outside with the same lift and twist motion.
