I am looking for a spring loaded latch for a gate- I have seen them but
unable to locate - Basicly it is 'C' shaped with rollers at the end of
the arms - When the gate closes it pulls round at stops the gate from
being blown open or rattling - It enables easy access from both sides-
Anyone know what I am on about and where I can get one please.

Thank is advance

Frank Healy

I know the type you mean - it has an over centre action. I've not seen
them on sale recently, though. Beardmore's?

They are called "Kenham" catches. If they are still available I am
pretty sure that Woods Yard of Waltham St Lawrence near Maidenhead,
Berks would stock them (Telephone 0118 9343676).

If you still have no luck, post again - I have the address of the
manufacturer at my other place and could get it for you when I next go
there.

Thanks for the info - No luck in my part of the world (Huddersfield)
although they do know what I am talking about - If you have the name of
the manufacturer it would be appreciated then I can contact them for a
local stockist.
