Flip Gate Latch with Padlock Hole (Adjustable)
Print Profile(1)
Description
Not very compact but durable flip gate latch. This heavy-duty adjustable latch (of course, it's not metal but still quite strong) features a built-in 8mm padlock hole for added security and is ideal for sliding or swing-open doors. Perfect for outdoor gates, wooden fences, barn doors, sheds, garages, and yard enclosures.
For best outdoor durability, I recommend printing this model in PETG. The latch distance can be adjusted using the three mounting holes on the handle, making it easier to fit different gate setups.
I used 6 × 1-1/4" screws for installation because I added a thick wooden support piece on the opposite side of the gate for extra strength and stability. Depending on your setup, shorter or longer screws may work better.
A few parameters:
- Handle width is 180mm
- Screw hole width is 4mm
- Screw head hole width is 8.5mm, so don't use anything wider than 8mm, or it won't flush and will interfere with the handle's smooth motion.
