Unlike standard locks, this latch deadlock is supplied with ornate traditional handles. The elegant, twisted design of the handles provides both aesthetic appeal and ergonomic comfort, ensuring ease of use while complementing the style of your gate.

Once the holes are prepared, the lock is securely bolted into place, ensuring a sturdy and reliable fit.
To make installation even easier, the Latch Deadlock with Traditional Handles comes with a comprehensive fitting kit, which includes:
