I also noticed that. What am I talking about, great video editing, music selection was good, quick and to the point. Except 1 minor detail, the actual latch itself, we'll it's up-side down. But no- worries, it's all good.
Actually, I was intrigued by the drum beat right away. Very catchy! The instruction was nice and simple. I am ordering this same latch. Thanks much! :) I am saving this video so I can go back and listen to the music again. Isn't it funny how we all have different tastes?!?
Awesome video good learning experience had some trouble with the in-laws busting down my gate and beating on my door so now I am beefing up my front gate to almost bulletproofing it using a heavy duty latch lock thanks for the video
Its great to see someone using hand tools and plug in drills . usually everyone has an assortment of power tools that take all the fun out of it and cost a fortune .
Please explain why would one install the latch striker/bar (which can be easily removed) and have the ability to lock the latch on the outside of the gate? I installed the the same system in reverse so both the latch striker/bar and the ability to lock the gate can be done within the inside of the gate.
Will it latch on it's own momentum if you swing the gate shut (no hands) or do you need to be holding onto the gate while you close it for it to latch properly? Thanks!
@@BackroadHankerin Actually, it's supposed to work so you can grab the handle and open the latch at the same time with your thumb. Your installation doesn't work as the latch should.
Very helpful video! Let me ask a question. What kind of the screw nail and wrench are needed? Could you tell me what the name and size of screw and wrench are ??
Yes, there are holes on the outside for a padlock. On the inside, the lever has a hole but there is no corresponding hole to match up with to lock them together, without adding some kind of bracket to the post, which probably wouldn't be too difficult.

Made for left/right swing but also anti sag, so, it can go either way.

Yes, everyone likes (and dislikes) different things. Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.
This is a very well-done and helpful video. Thanks so much for creating it and posting it.

Yeah, I have those too but like to use old school every once in a while. Thanks for watching.

Nice job. (Don't know why anyone would give a thumbs down.) Thanks for the post!
Thanks!
Never seen a drill like that before? Good Job!
Goes to show you that just because you use a drill motor from 1976 that you can still make a quality CZcams video
Yup....my favorite drill (corded) of the 5 or 6 that I have. Better than all of the newer ones. It has seen many projects. Thanks!
Thanks for the video i’m just disappointed that you need to have a big gap between the post and the gate for it to work
I found a spring yesterday now I know where it goes on my latch. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful.
I cannot figure that out because his hand is in the way. Any helpful hints?
Thanks Much for posting!
Thanks 👍
I really am having trouble seeing where you put the small spring because of your hand. Please help! Thanks.
Does it matter if the latch is on the inside or outside?
It's upside down!
How do you reverse the install on opposite side

It will latch on it's own
Can the other side be locked? Wtf?
Is this applicable for a gate that has a big space?
You put the latch on upside down. When the spring fails in about a year the latch will hang open.
I did it the way I wanted it to work. Works perfectly. Spring still intact after 4 years. Thanks for the comment.
Pretty hip music, what is it?
Does it matter which way the latch releases(moves)? Either from the bottom or the top?
Works which ever way you prefer.

we get really strong wind will this latch keep the gate closed
Holds up in windy Kansas. It latches tight.
Like👍👍👍
Muito bom parabéns
Can you put a lock on it?
Yes, there are holes on the outside for a padlock. On the inside, the lever has a hole but there is no corresponding hole to match up with to lock them together, without adding some kind of bracket to the post, which probably wouldn't be too difficult.
What size sockets did you use?
Curious if that is a 6x6 post?
No, just a 4x4.
Can u put a padlock on those
Yes
This is installed upside down. Lol
Nice video but lose the music.
