--Gravity thumb latches are commonly used on wood gates.
--Typically they are mounted on the inside of the gate.
--Latches may only be opened from the side they are mounted on unless the gate is short enough where one can reach over the gate. Latches are self-latching.
--For child safety, pair this latch with self-closing hinges, a gate spring, or the Kant-Slam for pool safety.
--Gate latches are available with a rust resistant zinc coating or with a black finish.
--There is a provision for a padlock to be added.
