How to Install
Installing the HD Double Sided Latch is straightforward and can be done with basic tools.
Position and mark
First, position the latch components on both sides of the gate and make sure they are aligned correctly. Mark the spots where you will need to drill so that all parts line up properly.
Drill and fasten
Next, drill the holes and fasten the latch into place with screws. Make sure everything is tightened securely and aligned properly so the latch operates smoothly.
