Key Details
Why the Steinwhale Latch Leads This Category
The Steinwhale Flip Gate Latch has strong buyer feedback. Its 4mm heavy-duty aluminum alloy body and 7.5-inch flip latch fit swing, sliding and double wood gates, and a simple flip latch is hardware most people can install themselves.
Because this is a latch rather than a built-in lock, you supply your own padlock through the included padlock holes -- a tradeoff that gives you control over security level but means a second purchase if you do not already own a weatherproof padlock.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Strong buyer feedback
- Simple flip latch that most people can install themselves
- Works with any padlock you choose, so you control the security level
Cons
- Requires a gate frame with adequate width to install correctly
- Does not include a padlock -- that is a separate purchase
Bottom Line
The Steinwhale 7.5-inch Flip Gate Latch is the best overall pick for most buyers based on strong buyer feedback, a 4mm aluminum alloy body, and simple installation on swing, sliding, or double wood gates. Budget for a separate padlock.
