Sliding Bolt Gate Latch Steel
This sliding bolt gate latch is built from cold-rolled steel with a WeatherGuard coating for outdoor durability. It suits residential fences, metal gates, farm enclosures, sheds and animal pens. The reversible design works on left or right-hand swinging doors and gates. It accommodates both in-swing and out-swing flush mount installations.
Capacity and headroom: 10.5 in x 4.5 in x 1.2 in
The latch measures 10.5 inches long, 4.5 inches wide and 1.2 inches thick, providing a substantial steel rod bar for secure closure. It handles standard residential gate and door thicknesses comfortably. Heavy-duty construction resists bending under normal gate movement and wind load. Extreme force or oversized gates beyond typical residential use may exceed its holding capacity.
Padlockable reversible hardware kit
A padlockable steel rod bar adds a layer of security for properties needing restricted access. The complete hardware kit includes carriage bolts and screws so no separate fastener purchase is required. WeatherGuard satin finish protects against rust and corrosion for long-lasting outdoor performance. The reversible mechanism simplifies installation on either hinge orientation.

Questions about this item
Will the 10.5 in slide bolt line up with the existing latch hole on my older wooden gate?
The bolt measures 10.5 in long by 1.2 in thick, so compare those dimensions with your current strike opening before mounting.
How can I confirm the WeatherGuard finish is protecting the steel after I install it?
The black satin coating should appear uniform with no bare metal showing; water should bead on the surface rather than soak in.
Which fasteners come in the box and what must I supply for a metal gate?
Carriage bolts and wood screws are included; for metal you will need to provide your own machine screws or bolts.
