Gate Latches (92 items found)

A high-quality gate latch is one of the most important pieces of gate hardware, offering a combination of reliable closing, improved security and good looks to fit into any fence or wall installation. The range at Ace Hardware provides latches to complement any gate, ranging from the sturdily functional to the ornamentally attractive.

Convenient Automatic Locking Gate Latch

As the name suggests, an automatic gate latch latches on its own when the gate swings shut, offering an easy and reliable way to keep entrances firmly closed. This type of locking gate latch is mostly suitable for outward-opening gates and doors with the latch mechanism fixed to the indoor side. These latches can also be padlocked on the inside for an extra level of security, offering no visible way of gaining entry for opportunistic intruders.

Two-Way Opening with Butterfly Gate Latch Designs

A butterfly latch is ideal for a gate that can open inward or outward, featuring latch openers on both sides of the gate and automatic latching whichever way the gate closes. However, a butterfly latch has the disadvantage of not being lockable, so is only appropriate for use in situations where security isn't a major factor.

Slide Bolt Gate Latches

A slide bolt locking gate latch combines durability with security, made from strong materials with an in-built lock and the toughness to stay closed even under heavy pressure. Slide bolt latches can be used on single gates that open inward or outward, for holding double gates together in the center, or for securely closing sliding doors of all types.

Top Mount Gate Latches

A top mount gate latch secures gates with easy access and operation. Mounted at the top of the gate, it’s typically made of durable materials like stainless steel or galvanized metal for weather resistance. Suitable for single or double gates that swing inward or outward, it offers simple installation and reliable performance for residential and commercial use.

Choose Heavy-Duty Gate Latches for Durability

When you need a durable latch that can withstand lots of use, a heavy-duty latch is a great option. Find galvanized steel, aluminum, zinc-plated and stainless-steel gate latches that can hold up to both repeated rough closing and tough weather conditions, making them ideal for use at home, on farmland or outdoor industrial facilities.

As well as metal gate latches, we offer products in a range of finishes to ensure total décor cohesion. From gloss to matte to other finishes, find what fits your décor at Ace.
