Snug Cottage Hardware Irish Gate Latches for Wood Gates

Our Irish Gate Latch is modeled after latches we found in common use throughout Ireland's countryside. We have re-created our own version so it will readily work with European style Five Bar Gates as well as with our own Maine Board Gate, Cape Cod Gate, and Double V Rail Gate plans.

The use of our elongated escutcheon plate as a receiver on the post will allow for some gate and post movement and it is easily installed by drilling a few holes or routing a slot to receive the bar. It can be locked in the closed position with the supplied simple cotter pin or you can use a padlock (not included) for more security.

This latch is ideal for use with Wood Gates.
