Good quality
They look good, are the right size, and function well. They don't weigh too much, seem durable, and were easy to install with the included hardware.

Works just as advertised.
I needed a new gate latch. This was priced well to get my sale. Was easy to attach with suppled hardware too. It is used many times a day and seems sturdy enough for the job. Holds securely.

It's small but functional
When one if the reviewers said this lock was small they wasn't kidding but it works just fine. Feels rather heavy for the size. It's only been a couple of days since I put it on but the black paint already starting to come off. That's not a big deal for us though as we didn't get the lock for looks. As long as it's functioning like it's supposed to that chipping on the little piece that closes is no big deal. All in all it's a nice look lock and works well.

chicken coop snugly closed now; great product
Exactly what I needed. It is sturdy and not-giving when it comes to an inch. I needed something that would keep the chicken coop door flush, so critters/snakes couldn't get in.

Inexpensive gate latch at the right price without a compromise in quality
This gate latch is well made - parts don't bind, paint is even and serves as a protective layer over the metal and comes with good quality black screws to fasten the hardware. On my gate, I drilled a hole through the wood above the latch release and ran a nylon string through it to let myself out of the chicken run from the inside. Works very well! Nice that the hole to attach the string was part of the latch mechanism. I pre-drilled the holes and even with the use of a impact screw driver, the Phillips head screws didn't protest and went in snugly. This is. a welcome change when a simple low impact driver can shear off a lesser mounting screw and casue re-work and put a damper on a project that is progresssing smoothy otherwise. I guess it's the small things that work well that can make a product worth looking for and purchasiong again, I'm now on my 3rd gate and have ordered 3 of these National Hardware latches. Great product.

CERROJO PARA REJA
MUY BUENA COMPRA. CERROJO PEQUEÑO MUY UTIL PARA UNA REJA. BASTA CON "AVENTAR LA PUERTA" PARA CERRAR Y FACIL DE ABRIR. TERMINADO EN NEGRO HORNEADO.

Good for the price
Quite sturdy for what it is - Not sure it's really any better than the average one you'd find at a hardware store, but can't argue that it's a solid value for the price. I do wish that it came with a line to pull it open, but I can't fault it as it doesn't say it's included.
