Hillman Group 851936 6 Inch Safety Review

Hillman Hardware Essentials 851936 Security Hook and Eye Latch, Zinc 6 in. Easy to install, this security hook will prevent criminals from entering our property!

I would give more stars but not very easy to unlock due to spring loaded latch. We use it on the gate of our fenced backyard and it is difficult for us or visitors to maneuver the spring loaded latch to open the latch.

This is to keep the door open for our cats and to prevent our dog from entering the room (tray). Our dog hit other latches, so we're hoping the "spring" security is the answer. Unfortunately, there is no "spring" to hold the fuse and prevent the hook from being unhooked. The fuse is only held by gravity, so our dog just climbs onto the hook from below and the hook is easily unhooked.
