          Answer This Question

          A:  When mounting, make sure your gate is closed and properly lined up so when you put the lock on the gate it will correctly slide into the mount properly. Proper assembly is the best option, putting one Gate Part on first I found was easier for me, then I could mark off the mounting holes for the strike plate on the post for proper and secure assembly. The strike plate you need depends on your gate assembly.

          by|Jan 15, 2021

          A:  Depends on your gate configuration. For mine I used the surface mount and used a 2inch drill bit to mitre the strike plate hole for the latch. Only note, make sure you mount as close to the strike plate as possible and test the opening and closing of the gate before installing. Secondly, there are some instructions included in the package to indicate pilot hole drill bit size etc. I did three gates and for one of mine I had to add a filler piece of wood for the latch to be in the right place again depends on your configuration I wanted mine on the inside of my gate.

                      We bought two of them, my husband used another screws because we used them together, one outside the door the other inside. Very happy with the product.

                      I bought two Slide Bolt Latches for the removeable door. The black screws are bad. I stripped several screws out. I used some galvanized carriage bolts instead. The hardware parts are excellent.

                        Hardware is solid and good for the task (shed). Giving 3 stars for mounting hardware. They give you standard screws which can be unscrewed from the outside which defeats purpose of having locking latch. The mounting plates have square holes for carriage bolts. Bought stainless carriage bolts so now latch can only be removed from inside by removing nut.

                        I built a shed with a large barn door and needed to pick a locking mechanism to keep it closed and secure. This slide bolt turned out to be a perfect solution. The bolt is substantial and the receiver has two options either surface mount or door jam mount. I chose the surface mount option. Screws included are long enough and heavy enough to secure the hardware to the door well. I did drill out the bolt hole to accommodate a heavier lock and it doesn't affect the integrity of the bolt.

                        The bolt is sturdy and is well built. But the screws were too soft and I stripped two of them trying to install the latch. And, a month later they have begun to show rust. I replaced two of the screws with decking and fence screws.

                        Great latch for our storage door. Nice, heavy, sturdy construction. In the past, latches left the door loosely closed. This latch helps pull the door nice and tight.

                        Great Latch
                        Made some stake sides for my car trailer. These latches worked great to attach the sides to each other. The end of the bolt is flattened so it cannot pull out of the plate. I put a small pin thru the hole in the end of the bolt for add safety
