Description
A surface-mounted drop bolt that locks itself between the two leaves of a double gate. The bolt runs in an aluminium guide that fixes to the side of the fixed leaf's square stile through two 15mm holes. When the gate is shut the head locks between the leaves, so the fixed leaf cannot be lifted out of its ground stop. The 490mm hot-dip galvanised bolt throws 140mm and the height adjusts by 100mm to suit the ground. The price is for one drop bolt.
Why choose this drop bolt
Locks itself. The head locks between the leaves as the gate shuts, so nobody has to remember to drop the bolt.
Quick to fit. Two through-holes and the fixings supplied; easy to add to an existing gate.
Adjustable. 100mm of height adjustment copes with uneven ground and settling posts.
Where it is used
Double mesh and bar gates on sports grounds, schools, depots, car parks and industrial sites with square stiles of 40mm or more.

Fitting
Close both leaves. Hold the guide on the side of the fixed leaf's stile with the head level with the meeting edge, mark and drill the two 15mm holes and fix it with the fixings supplied. Drop the bolt, mark where it meets the ground and set a ground stop or drill a hole for it. Adjust the bolt height so it drops cleanly and the head locks when the second leaf closes.
