Thingiverse
Gate Latch
My first USEFUL print. This satisfied a real need. I hated the latch on our new gate, it took two hands to easily open the gate. I printed this and put on a lever. Works awesome. I put a screen door spring on the gate, and it closes and latches every time.Print on its side so you don't need supports. May want 100% infill around the countersink holes. If so, use Support Blockers around the holes. Then in "Per Model Settings" "Modify settings for overlap" select Infill Density and change to 100%.
