Was easy to attach with suppled hardware too. It is used many times a day and seems sturdy enough for the job. Holds securely. Review: 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. ## Features - AUTOMATIC LATCH DESIGN: Built for outswing gates, doors and animal pens - DURABLE BLACK STEEL: Black plated steel finish provides long-lasting performance - VERSATILE MOUNTING: Strike mounts on gate or post for left or right handed applications - AUTO TRIP RELEASE: Fingertip release that latches automatically for convenience - INCLUDES 4 INCH STRIKE: Comes with a 4 inch strike and mounting hardware for installation - WEATHERGUARD PROTECTION: Coating resists corrosion in harsh outdoor conditions ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004AZ8IDW | | Additional Features | special_feature | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,353 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #3 in Gate Latches | | Brand Name | National Hardware | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (1,478) | | Finish Types | steel,coated | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00038613184862 | | Included Components | Hardware;Cabinet Hardware;cabinet-and-furniture-latches | | Item Dimensions | 0.63 x 1 x 2 inches | | Item Type Name | Stanley National Hardware N131-409 298BC Pintle Zinc Plated, 5/8" | | Item Weight | 0.35 Pounds | | Lock Type | lock_type | | Manufacturer | National Hardware | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Warranty | | Material Type | Alloy Steel | | Model Number | N184-861 | | UPC | 038613184862 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** National Hardware - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 0.63 x 1 x 2 inches - **Lock Type:** lock_type - **Material:** Alloy Steel - **Special Feature:** special_feature ## Images ![Automatic Gate Latch, Black, 4 in Strike, Model N184-861, For Outswing Gates Doors Animal Pens - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61gkOj--fxL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How big is it?** A: 4 1/2 wide, 2" high.
