GATE FITTING SCREW ON HOOK LATCH KIT & 350MM CHAIN ROTECH SCLK350 at a glance

A Complete & Versatile Chain Latch Kit

Looking for a strong and simple latching system that you can either screw or weld on.

The complete chain latch kit is an easy solution to securing your chain onto a gate post.

Are you frustrated with looping your chain around your fence post in order to secure your gate.

If you have a barb wire fence, we are sure you have experienced getting snagged at least once when trying to close your gate.

The hot-dip galvanised chain latch kit allows you to simply latch your gate onto any wooden or steel post.

Available with a standard or spring hook, you can either weld or screw your kit to the gate.

This allows you to loop your chain around your gate, rather than the fence post.

The chain latch kit uses special deep-drilling metal tek screws, designed especially for screwing into thicker steel.

These screws are rated for steel of up to 8mm thick, and will easily drill through heavy wall steel posts.

Included:
1 Latch
1 Ring
1 Saddle
4 Screws
Chain length 350mm

Screw the hook fitting into your gate post at a height that aligns with the latch loop on your gate — typically around 1 metre up from the ground. Thread the 350mm chain through the eye of the hook and secure it with the latch mechanism. Make sure the chain has enough slack to allow the gate to swing freely without catching, but tight enough that it won't rattle or come loose when the gate closes. Tips: Check that your gate post is solid and not rotting before installation — a weak post will pull out under pressure from stock pushing against the gate. Keep the chain and hook lightly oiled during wet season to stop rust from seizing up the latch, especially in coastal areas around Gympie.
