Summer is for many of us associated with the river, outdoor recreation, and of course the cottage. Naturally, each cottage there are various buildings and a fence with a gate that must be closed.

Today I would like to tell you about a relatively simple device that can be made with your own hands.

(How does this work will show at the end)

Gates, doors, gates at the cottage, and his house are closed with the help of various devices. Someone sets latches, bolts, latches, Padlocks and Mortise locks, and some quite and simple wire.

The author proposed a fairly original and practical variant of the locking device.

In this review, I would like to show you lockfor villa wickets their own hands. I'll tell you in detail about this item, and maybe you will take this idea on board.

Idea

Evaluation 3 of 5

To lock the doors and gates of the hosts use different devices depending on the value of the property. If you want to close the door of the house, using mortise or hinged

lock. If you close the flock or the gate, it is quite suitable heck or bolt.

The lock quite suitable for locking swarms, wickets, woodsheds. In general, it will perform the same function as that of an ordinary bolt. So I put the author of 3 points.

Design

Evaluation 4 of 5

lock design for villa gate consists of two parts, each of which is a bracket. The first bracket is made of three pieces of metal rod welded in the middle of yet another segment of a rod with a metal ring.

The second bracket is made from four segments of the rod and then welded perpendicularly to a small metal plate. The plate is then screwed to the door, and the first bracket is mounted directly in a wooden jamb.

In order to close this lock, It is necessary to have a clamp for a metal ring and pull the bracket in the opposite direction. Ring at the same time as it must roll over the edge of the bracket.

The main drawback of this design, I believe that this lock will only work on the type of compartment doors. Therefore, for the design I put 4 points.

analogs

Evaluation 4 of 5

Analogs of this invention are the various latches, bolts, latches and locks. the cost starts from 30 rubles.

Of course, the cost of this product is almost zero, especially if all the materials you already have. But due to the limited use of the castle, I would have preferred the classic castles.
