Insert Lock for 60mm Box Section Gates, Stainless Hook and Self-Latching Bolt, Lock Only

This is an insert lock for gates made from 60mm box section: the lock case fits inside the gate stile so only a slim stainless faceplate shows, and it throws a stainless hook bolt as well as a self-latching day bolt. With the right keep on the post, the hook grips the keep so the gate cannot be pulled away or forced open. The mechanism is 100% stainless steel, it suits metal, aluminium and PVC gates, and it clicks into the profile in seconds. This is the lock only: handles, cylinder and keep are ordered separately, or choose the complete kit. The price shown is for one lock.

Why use this lock

Hook bolt security. The stainless hook has a 21mm throw and locks into the keep, so the gate leaf cannot be levered off the post, which is how most gates are forced.

Latches every time. The self-latching day bolt catches as the gate closes and can be locked with the key. It changes over for left or right-hand gates and adjusts by up to 10mm without taking the lock out.

Fast to fit. A click-in fixing holds the lock in the profile, so there is no need to tap threads into the box section.

Built for outdoors. The mechanism, hook, faceplate and latch bolt are stainless steel, and a cover plate keeps dirt out of the mechanism.

Where it is used

Pedestrian and side gates in 60mm box section at homes, offices, schools, sports grounds, blocks of flats and industrial units, by fabricators and installers who want a neat hidden lock and choose their own handles and keep.

Other options

Choosing the right option

Choose this lock for a gate stile in 60mm box section when you already have handles, a cylinder and a keep, or want to choose them yourself. If you want everything matched in one order, the complete kit costs less than buying the parts one by one. For 40mm or 50mm box section, choose the matching smaller lock, as the backset is set by the profile depth.

Fitting and care

Cut the opening for the lock in the edge of the gate stile and drill the handle and cylinder holes at 92mm centres, click the lock into the profile, then fit the cylinder, handles and cover plates. Fit the keep on the post so the hook and day bolt engage fully, and set the day bolt with its adjustment. A safety cable is recommended on every swing gate. Wipe the faceplate clean and put a little graphite in the cylinder once a year.
