Nice product but with rubbish fixing screws but you probably have those
A replacement for the one that I bought about a year ago that snapped when the gate slammed in the wind.
I've since made an adjustment so hopefully it should latch if slammed.
I have installed a number of these where I live as they are a sensibly priced alternative to the hideously expensive 'forged' alternatives on the market. I marry these with the forged type hinges to create the right feel and look in a country property. They can be tricky to get right, I like them to click shut whithout lifting the sneck. I've discovered inserting a tiny piece of draft proofing foam to take up the slack enables this. Altogether a good solution to achieve a look on a ledge and brace door.
Tailor made replacement for old broken latch. Easy to install.
I bought this thinking it would be more secure and stronger than our previous one. Very disappointed as it Snapped after just a few days.
Well made, sturdy Suffolk latch. Great value of money.
Good kit - does the job perfectly but might have benefitted from a fitting guide or templates, but honestly not a biggy. Especially for the price.
Super sturdy and nicely made latch. Much stronger than the thin sheet metal ones. Black finish is very nice on them but cant comment on longevity. Only a shame that no black screws are included.
Good quality and value for price, we have quite a few of these in the house and are very happy with them and they look right on our cottage doors
Sympathetic fitting with the period of the property
Fitted this in 15 mins, with no fuss or bother. It feels heavy & robust. I replaced the supplied screws straight away as the paint came off during installation and were bright underneath. Disappointed that within a few days paint had also chipped off contact areas and around moving parts so now looks awful - the paint is really thick… not worth the hassle to take off and return then find a replacement as it’s just the back gate - I’ll probably touch it up with some outdoor metal paint at somepoint. A reminder that you get what you pay for…
Nice enough latch, and almost parallel mounting face, unlike one bought elsewhere. Shame that the pivot pin on mine was steel coloured not black as shown so will need to paint it
The Suffolk latch was easy to order, collect and install. The doors seems to have a much harsher gate latch on them which had caused me to catch my arm. These keeps on these latches is much better in the house
Lovely latch, easy to install. Without noticing any scratching during installation, there is a small patch of rust already.
Great door latch for cottage door. Easy to fit and looks attractive!
Good quality iron with a good finish. In keeping with a rustic look
These latches are very well made and chunky and fit the 'antique' label well.
Very good Strong heavy and easy for fit 10/10 thank you
Listing states that fixings are included but there were none with mine. Went to store and they Che led the others they had in stock and none had the fittings.
The arm snapped in two within a few days
