Review on πŸ”’ MaxLatch DPB21A Zinc Plated 6 Inch by National Hardware N344-663 by Jose Moran

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Do you have problems with the gate lock? Try this bar!

This latch was easy to install with the included hex head (screws). However, I found that it would be easy to remove the two locking bolts I used on the latch. This situation almost did not ensure the safety of the gate. So he went back to the hardware store to get some pan head screws (plus washers and nuts). I had to drill holes for the bolts, but the square neck under the head of the carriage bolts went into the latch holes and prevented the carriage bolts from turning. Now I have a gate that is at least somehow protected.

Pros
  • The striker can be mounted on both the gate and the mast; Designed for right or left handed use
Cons
  • Some cons
