Replacement Latch for Lokk Latch Deluxe

thingiverse

Created this to fix a broken latch on my gate. The gate latch is D&D Technologies Lokk Latch Deluxe. Check out http://ddtechglobal.com/product/lokklatch_deluxe for more information. I just needed a small piece of aluminum rod. If your latch breaks, it's probably because too much force is being applied to the latch. To fix this problem, attach a piece of angle iron to the fence post with some padding glued to one side. Secure it to the post where the catch is located so that it can absorb the impact when the gate slams shut. I attached mine near the top of the post, just before the latch gets hit by the catch. This fix completely solved my issue.
