does this latch open on both sides
Asked by dolly June 9, 20204
Answersfor one side only // if you have a opening to reach the latch side it will work for you
I lost my fasteners. What kind of screw does this take?
Asked by Eva December 17, 20194
AnswersLarge ones with heads that won't pull trough the holes. May want to drill pilot holes.
Yes, I had an issue with the screws as well, Where can I get replacement screws for this latch ?
Asked by Dee December 16, 20193
AnswersThough they will not have a painted head, Home Depot does carry the same size #14x1-1/2 inch screw.
This should have carriage bolt-compatible holes for added security. Does it?
Asked by Bob August 6, 20193
AnswersIt does not have carriage bolt-compatible holes as it is intended to be used on the inside of the gate. The included screws can be changed to a security screw to best suit your needs if you choose to use it on the outside on the gate. Just be sure to use stainless steel screws.
What sizes padlock can you use for this latch.
Asked by JR May 31, 20192
AnswersThe hole diameter for the padlock = 0.75 inch
What is the width of each plate that attaches to the fence?
Asked by Pvc1948 February 27, 20195
AnswersSlightly wider then a 2x4 which I didn't like. You have to space the holes across the pickets so all of the screws sink into the 2x4s behind it.
How wide a space between the two doors will the latch operate (open/close)?
Asked by Papa719 January 29, 20195
AnswersI wouldn't go beyond 3 inches. Even that might fail to close.
How thick does the wood material that you’re installing it on need to be?
Asked by Catlady December 23, 20186
AnswersA typical picket is 3/4 inch thick. A 2x4 is 1 1/2 inches thick. So 3/4 inch plus 1 1/2 inch = 2 1/4 inches. The mounting screws are 1 5/8 inches long.
How thick is the material of the flip latch part itself? Looking to drill a hole to attach a lif...
Asked by GrandmaLE September 21, 20185
AnswersIt's between 1/8" and 1/4" and I'm sorry I can't be more precise. I bought this for my mom's gate and she doesn't live nearby me or I'd go up and measure it. As long as you have access to a drill press (or you put it on a wooden block and use some muscle) you should be able to drill that hold for a cord and outsmart those little escape artists. Good luck!
Can I use this on my shed door instead of a hasp or barrel bolt?
Asked by arrmd May 25, 20185
Answersyes it would work very on your shed door.

These work fantastically, help alignment of the big gates & look great
Best lock for your gate
May 30, 2020
Don’t mess with a little lock this one is so much better. We have a double gate to our back yard. We wanted a way to keep it shut and secured. Gate installer put in a small regular lock, we replaced with this one and we are very satisfied. Worth the extra money for sure
interferes with Itself!
May 14, 2020
Seems like no one is behind the wheel on this design. I decided to keep it and grind out notches where it interferes. Latch interferes when opening and also the 2 halves bump into each other It should be ok if you have a large gap between doors ~ 1/2”
These work great for my door to my privacy fence.

December 17, 2019
I was looking for something to hold the top of our 5 1/2 foot fence in place and also be easy to open. This met those requirements. Works great and easy to install. Because it is a heavy piece of steel set deep within a steel holder I don't have to lock it in case our dogs bounce against the fence. Looks good from the street.

September 12, 2019
I LOVE this heavy duty gate flip latch! Check out the picture below - this gate latch is just what I needed! Just drop the latch, close the padlock, and done! I needed something beefy, because this section gets a lot of wind, especially during the winter with our nor'easters! If frost wants to interfere, the latch allows for some "play" between the parts (up to 2.5 inches). If the frost wants to move the gate upward, the latch will still make contact to keep the gate closed. Hardware was perfect - pre-drilled the holes and fastened the hardware into pressure-treated wood. When I bring the snowblower through this section, I also installed a "cane" to keep the gate in the open position while I am on the other side.

The latch it's self is high strength and will last but the scews used to attach to gate or door are low quality and heads will strip out.

I added these locks to some storage cabinets for added security. Turns out with enough force and manipulation, even with large padlocks on the lock, you can still break in.
Love it. Easy to install, can securely lock my gate and looks great.
