Gate latch

摘要

A latch for use with a gate includes a latch body having a planar mounting surface on a rearward side thereof with a pair of space apart flanges which receive a bolt in openings thereto. The bolt is positioned parallel to the surface of the gauge and is slidably and rotatably disposed within the flange openings. An enlargement on one side of the bolt will allow the bolt to pass through one of the flanges when in a predetermined angular position for removal. However an offturned end of the bolt extends rearwardly of the mounting surface, and the bolt enlargement is so oriented such that the bolt is not removable from the latch body when the body is normally attached to the gate.
