Wrought Iron Gate Latch.

This latch is very rustic and will show black to brown.

This simple antique door latch is vintage style and hand-forged with a rustic finish. It would make a beautiful vintage addition to any traditional door, gate, or cupboard and can be used for left or right opening doors. The cottage latch arm is 6 inches or 16cm in length and measures 2.5 cm wide. The gate latch arm features a neat and simple button style handle to bring the latch up and over the clasp.

Forging

Our wrought iron latches are all individually hand forged, and so they are similar but not identical. Each piece is hand-finished and given a wax coating. All our hand-forged products are carefully aged for an authentic look.  These latches are made in the very ancient and traditional way being hand forged on the anvil.

Beeswax

Once the latch has been forged it is hand cleaned and hand polished. The latch now needs to be dressed. Dressing of the latch is done by treating the wrought iron with beeswax. The natural beeswax will soak into the tiny holes on the surface of the iron and forms an airtight skin over the latch. This wax coating will now protect the latch from excessive rusting. The colour of the latch will now be uniform the colours will be from black to golden brown.

Installation

As the antique door latch is surface mounted, it will be relatively easy to fit. We will supply all the fixings that you require for the installation. In this case, the fittings that you will need are just screws. These screws will be an old cottage type with a black slotted domed head.

  1. Kevin

    Fitted this to a new garden gate over the weekend – all very straight forward – took about 10 minutes in total. Looks great, feels great, and has a lovely action – all at the pretty much the same price as a standard, dull, factory mass produced equivalent.

    Highly recommended.
