A Galvanised Automatic Gate Latch is a simple, self-locking fastening designed to keep garden gates and pedestrian gates securely closed. The latch automatically engages when the gate is pushed shut, meaning the gate closes and locks without needing to manually fasten it each time.
Manufactured from steel with a galvanised finish, it offers improved resistance to rust and weathering, making it well suited for outdoor use on timber or metal gates.
Key Features
Automatic Self-Latching Mechanism – Locks automatically when the gate closes
Galvanised Finish – Helps protect against corrosion and outdoor weather
Easy Operation – Can typically be opened with a simple lift or fingertip release
Surface Mounted Installation – Quick and straightforward fitting
Padlock Compatible – Can often be secured with a padlock for extra security (padlock not included)
Suitable For

Timber or metal gates
Typical Applications
Securing garden and pedestrian gates
Preventing gates from swinging open in the wind
Keeping pets or children safely contained in outdoor spaces
The automatic latch design makes it particularly useful for frequently used gates, as it securely fastens the gate each time it closes without requiring manual locking.
