Hardware Essentials 853340 Universal Gate Latch Stainless Steel, 1 Piece, 1.87 x 3.75 x 7.5 inches

Easy to install, wide tolerances for imperfect gate alignment, feels like it should hold up to many long, wet Northwest winters.

Great value for the money, outstanding quality!

Originally purchased a galvanized latch from everbilt and it would catch on the hole for the lock. Also the metal was so light a piece of monofilament kept it from falling back down. Also, the auto close function did not work. The product from Hillman worked perfectly and did not have the issues the everbilt had. The hole for the lock is not in a position to catch and the stainless material is really heavy. Auto close resets and closes like butter.

Quality made. Why would you use cheap painted steel? One and done!

I searched for days to find hardware that worked! We live close to the water, corrosion is always an issue in our climate. We purchased for a new gate and it is the most sold choice we could have made!!! Works SO well, never gets hung up, closes every time, and not in any way a cheap piece of hardware! Our gate is heavy and it still supports the weight and the closing time after time.We are over the moon about this product, don't hesitate .

excellent quality, I polished them to mirror finish, used next to salt water in FLA

I installed this latch in June 2020 on a frequently used composite gate that is literally 80 feet in a direct, unobscured line to the ocean (not the bay) and the latch shows absolutely ZERO signs of corrosion which for the price is impressive, considering the exposure the latch is subjected to. I definitely recommend this latch for any coastal installation.

Sturdily made of heavyweight (thick) grade stainless.

No more rust

The latch gate was easy to install and it came with all the screws needed.  The latch is smooth to lift and best thing is that it's stainless steel, so hopefully it won't rust.  The only thing I wish it comes with a pull-cable,    and the pull-cable hole is a bit small.  But no big deal as I find another cheap pull cable online.  Very good latch so far. I will report if it ever rusts.

This in not the big box store black latch. The stainless latch is much thicker, and even the screws are stainless . Screws are also longer than my old bent replaced latch. I will buy another one for my second Fence. Well worth the money.

...then this is a solid option.Design is well considered.Everything fits well.
