MagnaLatch Series 3 Vertical Pull: the compact magnetic gate latch
D&D Technologies invented magnetic safety gate latches in the early 1990s. The MagnaLatch Vertical Pull is the smaller sibling of the Top Pull, which can make it the better choice on taller pool gates, and D&D presents it for pool, front, pet, side and perimeter gates.
Operation and security
Magnetically triggered latching greatly reduces the chance of jamming or sticking as the gate closes. A visible indicator shows whether the latch is locked or unlocked, and the higher-security lock cylinder can be rekeyed by a locksmith to match your doors. D&D has tested the Series 3 to 2 million cycles and rates it 50% stronger than previous models.
Fit and adjustment
It suits square posts of 1 in and up on aluminum, steel and ornamental iron, wood and vinyl gates, with an ideal gate gap of 3/4 in on gates of about 3 ft wide and 5 ft high. The latch adjusts vertically and horizontally, and indicator marks show when it needs adjusting. It screws on and the fasteners are supplied.
On a pool gate, always confirm the safety requirements with your local authority before you fit it.
