gate latch
Secures fence opening
A gate latch is a fastening mechanism that holds a gate closed.
Unlike door latches, gate latches are typically designed for outdoor use and one-handed operation from either side: She lifted the gate latch and stepped into the garden.
Common types include thumb latches, ring latches, and gravity latches that fall into place automatically when the gate swings shut.
