IRONTITE® Ring Gate Latch, Heavy Duty Gate Latch for Wooden Gates, Auto Garden Gate Latch Ideal for Keeping Garden Gates and Doors Shut, Opened from Either Side of Gate (Galvanised)

The old latch was put on by the house builder (new house) circa 3 years ago and its typical cheap rubbish. High winds have bent it several time and I have bent it back - enough.This is made in Preston and you can tell, much thicker metal on all parts and well dipped in zinc to prevent rust. Fitted very easily - even the wood screws are good quality. If you need a timber gate latch I would happily recommend this one. Its twice the price and a bit more than others on the site - but you get what you pay for.

Excellent quality, looks great and works well, i would recommend it.

Item bought to replace similar latch which had rusted i.e. probably not galvanised. This one states "hot dipped galvanised", which is supposed to be one of the best processes, so let's hope this proves to be the case. Whilst it is solid enough, the finish is a little rough in parts but, hey ho, it's only an outside gate latch. For previous one-star reviewers - if the pivoting ring is a little tight, put a bit of oil on it; if it doesn't latch properly, you probably need to adjust the position of the receiver. Screws were provided but they were a little long so I had used my own shorter ones. Easy to install so am prepared to recommend this if you want a reasonably priced sturdy ring gate latch and are not looking for a very smooth or stainless steel type finish.

Delivered quickly. Fitted well to replace an existing, broken one which was luckily exactly the same size. Quality seems good. Time will tell.

Very sturdy gate latch. Lots of gate latches have bad reviews due to being flimsy and breaking easily. I bought this despite some reviews saying it was a but rough round the edges. Well it is a bit but it looks good and sturdy and does the job well so worth buying.

Well made and nicely finished with a decent set of screws. Easy to fit and looks good.

As others have said, it's a bit rough, but it does the job and is considerably more robust than what it replaced, which was not very good.

I took a punt to buy online and thus far it's paid off this is a heavyweight gate latch of very good quality far superior to the one we had fitted previously as the guy who made our gate left the spindle inside the latch with a sharp edge which sheared the inside of the latch as it had soft metal inside of it this i discovered at the point of replacement after it had stopped working as it should!!I only rated 4 stars on value for money as its longevity is yet to be tested over a period of months but I can honestly see this lasting years
