Heavy-Duty Flip Latch Lock 90/180 Degree Sliding/Swinging Door Lock Latch Bolt for Gate Barn Garage Garden Fence Shed Window Cabinet (Black, 180 Degree)

It's a nice looking piece of hardware for your door. Just wanted to give some advice. First, the screws here are pretty small and thin, so I don't think it's very secure. It won't prevent someone kicking open or pulling open the door forcefully. It will prevent a family member from using the doorknob's emergency unlock mechanism to open the door. Like if you have a bathroom door that you want to keep absolutely locked even if someone uses the pin-hole unlocking mechanism of your doorknob's lock, this will do the trick. No way someone is getting in. Another bit of advice: This won't work on most interior doors. That's because most interior doors are hollow on the inside. They're not solid. This should only be used on solid doors. That pretty much limits you to exterior doors, although you can replace an interior door with a solid wood door just the same, and then it would work. But with hollow doors, you have maybe an eighth of an inch of wood that the screw will screw into, which means it can easily be ripped right out. That's why you need a solid wood door. Last bit of advice: The margin of error on this is extremely small. A millimeter too much one way or the other, and the thing won't work at all. That's because the latch mechanism is very precise. It has to fit perfectly. Get ready to fill holes and then redrill them to fix your mistake. Aside from that, I give it 5 stars for what it is. I could maybe take a star off for the fact that the screws aren't big and strong, but I'm not going to. This is a niche piece of hardware that might work perfectly for some applications where strong security isn't required.

I needed A lock for a swinging door that goes from my living room to my kitchen. Something to make it so my dog can’t push the door open and come into the kitchen. This works perfectly. Love it and it looks nice, easy to install and worth the money. Very durable. Would recommend.

The media could not be loaded. This flip latch is so cute and trendy. Most of all it's practical and innovative. I like that you can just flip it up and down to open and lock. Unlike the clunky, size-incompatible hook and eye that came with my screen door, this adds an appealing look to my door. It's heavy duty, and heavy! I feel I got the most out of every penny I paid for it. I also like that it holds the door secure and locks it in place. If there was any complaint, it would be trying to align it properly especially if the door doesn't flush right on the door jamb. You'll need another pair of hands to push the door flat to get the proper alignment and distance between the latch and the catcher. I also considered the placement (see photo). As some reviewers mentioned, there is a groove that cups the latch in place and can catch and trap water from rain, so I installed it a little higher just above where the recommended location should be. So far, it's been "safe" from the rain and had been dry in spite of several storms that we've had the past weeks. I'm very pleased with this and woud be my first choice when I need another latch system in the near future!

I drilled this lock onto the sliding screen door of my balcony so my baby cannot open it. It’s sturdy and works great. Just make sure you line the pieces up properly. If you put one of the pieces on upside down they will not be aligned. As long as you pay attention to that you’ll be fine. Super easy to install. You definitely need a drill if installing into plastic or metal.
