FAQs
Does this latch come with a spindle?
No, an 8mm thick metal spindle must be purchased separately.
Can I use this on a bathroom door?
Yes, its rustic design and secure locking mechanism make it a great fit for bathroom doors.
Is the finish weather-resistant?
Yes, it features a powder-coated finish designed to withstand outdoor conditions.
How do I choose the right spindle length?
Measure the total thickness of your gate or door and select a spindle that matches this measurement to ensure it reaches through both sides of the handle mechanism.
What tools are needed for installation?
You will generally need a drill with appropriate bits, a screwdriver, and a measuring tape.
Is the material real iron?

Troubleshooting
The ring-pull feels stiff or difficult to turn.
Check that the spindle is not too long or binding within the mechanism. Ensure the mounting screws are not overtightened, which can distort the backplate.
The latch does not catch securely.
Verify the alignment of the latch and the strike plate. You may need to adjust the position of the strike plate to ensure a snug fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install this latch, ensure you have measured the exact thickness of your gate or door. You will need to procure an 8mm thick metal spindle; the length of this spindle must match the thickness of your gate to ensure the ring-pull engages correctly with the latch mechanism.
- Measure the door thickness to determine the correct spindle length.
- Drill the necessary aperture for the spindle housing.
- Secure the latch backplates on both sides of the gate using appropriate fasteners.
- Insert the 8mm spindle through the mechanism and verify smooth rotation.
For care, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners. If the powder coating is scratched, use a touch-up paint specifically formulated for powder-coated iron to prevent moisture from reaching the base metal.
