What is the bolt diameter?

Is this product rust-resistant?

The product is designed for external use; however, it is recommended to keep it lubricated to prevent surface oxidation.

Troubleshooting

Bolt is sticking or difficult to slide

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elongated keep simplifies installation alignment
  • High-strength 12mm diameter steel bolt
  • Suitable for heavy-duty security needs
  • Sturdy base plate dimensions provide excellent stability

Cons

  • Mounting screws are not included in the package
  • Requires manual alignment during pilot hole drilling
  • Limited to flat surface mounting

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, hold the bolt in the desired position and mark the holes on your gate and frame. Use a drill to create pilot holes to prevent the wood from splitting. Once secured with appropriate wood screws (purchased separately), test the sliding action to ensure it moves freely within the keep.

Compatibility: This bolt is compatible with most wooden gates and doors. Ensure the surface is flat to allow the 120mm x 45mm plate to sit flush.

Care: To maintain the bolt's functionality, apply a light coat of multi-purpose lubricant to the sliding mechanism every six months, especially if the unit is exposed to wet, outdoor conditions.
