The Crompton 1819 Auto Gate Catch is a gravity-actuated latching system designed to provide a secure and reliable closure for timber gates. Commonly referred to as a 'D' latch, this mechanism features a pivoting striker bar that automatically drops into the catch plate as the gate swings shut, ensuring the gate remains closed without the need for manual locking.

This latch is an essential component for domestic garden gates, side entrances, and light commercial pedestrian gates. Its surface-mounted design allows for straightforward installation onto gate posts and frames, making it an ideal choice for both new projects and the replacement of existing hardware. The mechanism is engineered to handle the natural movement and tolerances of timber gates over time.

Manufactured from heavy-duty steel, the 1819 catch is built to withstand frequent use in external environments. The catch plate and striker bar both feature pre-drilled holes for secure fixing with standard wood screws, providing a robust solution for perimeter security and convenience.
