Dark Bronze Contemporary Lever Latch Package for Single Gates

Dark Bronze Contemporary Lever Latch with Square Handle
Hardware Package for Single Wood Gates

A complete hardware package for single wooden gates: includes a Contemporary Lever Latch with Square Handle; a set of three solid brass heavy duty hinges; and a dark bronze gate stop.

     
         
This solid Dark Bronze Contemporary Latch pairs with a simple and straight drop bar to create an elegant gate latch. This latch is suitable for in-swinging and out-swinging gates. On out-swinging gates, the latch-arm side will be installed on the street-side (outside) of your gate.

The latch is not lacquered, so it will darken naturally over time.

How does this hardware hold up to the elements? This bronze hardware contains 90% copper and 10% tin. When submitted to a salt-water chamber test, this hardware began to patina at the 16-hour-mark, versus 10-hours for other name-brand, high end bronze products. The hardware has an exterior-grade wax applied to it that adds to its resistance. A client recently wrote that this hardware installed on an waterfront boathouse two years ago looks slightly darker and shinier than the original, but looks otherwise exceptional.

The bottom line is: this hardware is the perfect choice for oceanfront, waterfront, and coastal installations.
