The Keystone gate latch features a sophisticated, traditional design and provides superior reliability. The Keystone latch will work on vinyl, wood or metal gates, comes with 4 keys and is keyed alike, so if you purchase multiple latches the same key can be conveniently used on all of them. It can be re-keyed to match a 5 pin key, if you prefer to match the latch to your house key.

The Keystone latch comes with everything you need for installation, including instructions, a marking template and all fasteners. The Keystone latch fits on gate posts up to 5 inches and requires a gate gap between 1/2 inch and 1-3/4 inches. It will only work with square gate frames. The actual dimensions of the Keystone latch are 1-1/2 inches wide, 5-1/2 inches tall and 3 inches deep. The Keystone Latch is compatible with single and double gates, but will require a drop rod (not included) with double gates. Search ASIN: B06ZY8F2HT for a lockable drop rod. The Keystone latch will last over 1 million cycles so you can feel confident it will stand the test of time. Let us know if you have any questions. Review: It works! And the button doesn’t get stuck if you do it right! - The lock was extremely easy to install and other reviewers who complained about it getting stuck simply did not install it correctly. How do I know? I initially installed it incorrectly and the button got stuck! You really have to make sure you drill holes into the post using a 5/8 sized drill bit. You could drill smaller holes which the plastic pilot tubes could fit but it makes it extremely snug and does give it space for the metal rods to be perfectly parallel. This causes the button to stick. So do yourself a favor and drill larger pilot holes so that there is room for the metal rods to anchor to the other side of the lock without having to bend or force them into place. The lock is very sturdy and is lockable from both sides. I’m a regular dude and have not been paid to promote this. I bought this even though there were a considerable amount of reviews saying the button get stuck and was a little apprehensive about the purchase. But everything turned out great and some peeps just need to learn how to follow directions. (Including myself) Review: Simple to install, great quality, works well - I installed this gate latch and am very impressed with everything about it. The instructions are very clear and the template that is supplied to ensure that you get a level/clean installation was very handy. I did read several complaints that the screws that are included in the package are not the best quality, BUT, get the proper screw driver and they work fine. I put a little liquid dish soap on each and they went in to treated lumber well. I did use longer screws on the gate portion because of the way that my gate is constructed. I needed to ensure that i was driving through the meat of the board, and not just the trim pieces so that the weight of the gate didn't loosen things over time. You will need to make two cuts on the metal pins that connect the front and back pieces of the latch, but they are marked very clearly. One thing that wasn't clear to me was whether the lock mechanism is required for use. BOTH sides of the latch require keys, so if you unlock both of them and put the keys in the garage you don't ever have to be worried about getting locked behind the gate. :) . I don't need to lock my gate, but I needed a sturdy latch and this product really fills that need. My pics are in this order; Outside of the gate with the gate closed. The post with the Outside and Inside latches installed. Inside of the gate with the gate closed. The gate pin with the longer screws so that I could drive in to the 2x6 in the middle of the gate. Installation took less than an hour. I need to build another service yard on the side of my house this summer to cover a propane tank, etc, and I will purchase this same unit. ## Features - Keystone heavy duty diecast metal two sided gravity latch | Gate gap: 1/2 inch to 1-3/4 inch; 1 inch is ideal | Fits gate frames up to 5 inches | Gate Frames and posts must be square | Fasteners are included - For use with vinyl, wood, or metal gates | Includes plastic marking template for installation | Locks and unlocks from either side | Can be used for left or right handed applications - Durable zinc diecast metal construction | The Keystone 2-sided latch will not rust or corrode | Superior self-latching technology | Engineered to prevent jamming and sticking - The Keystone Latch features a simple, traditional design | UV Resistant | Will last over 1 million cycles | Part Number: KLADV-M2-BK-KA - The Keystone Latch is keyed alike meaning if you purchase multiple they will use the same key | The Keystone Latch can be rekeyed to match a 5-pin house key | Comes with step-by-step instructions for easy installation ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01K7YIMMQ | | Additional Features | Heavy duty | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #71,777 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #209 in Gate Latches | | Brand Name | Nationwide Industries | | Care instructions | Clean with a damp cloth as needed | | Closure Type | Pull On | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 1,099 Reviews | | Fit Type | built-in | | Fit to Size Sentiment | Positive | | Import Designation | Imported | | Included Components | Instructions, marking template, and fasteners | | Item Dimensions | 3 x 1.5 x 5.5 inches | | Item Shape | Square | | Item Weight | 2.3 pounds | | Manufacturer | Nationwide Industries | | Manufacturer Part Number | KLADV-M2-BK | | Material Type | Zinc | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Origin | Imported | | Product Style | Traditional | | Size | Large | | Style Number | KLADV-M2-BK | | Theme | Wood | | UPC | 739189996445 841294121404 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Images ![Keystone Black Zinc Diecast Metal Key Lockable Latch | 2-Sided | Keyed Alike | KLADV-M2-BK-KA - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/610N8aWyP2L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works!

(Including myself) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple to install, great quality, works well *by K***N on January 21, 2020* I installed this gate latch and am very impressed with everything about it. The instructions are very clear and the template that is supplied to ensure that you get a level/clean installation was very handy.

I was worried it would be hard to install, but it wasn't. After reading the instructions and using the template to mark the holes that needed to be drilled, the installation was easy. I did make one mistake. I drilled a 5/8" hole where a 1/8" hole was supposed to be. (Remember, the 5/8" holes are between the two 1/8" holes). Fortunately, the lock almost completely covered the 5/8" hole. The other screws held the lock firmly in place even though I couldn't put a screw where I had drilled too large a hole. The plastic tubes keep the metal bars that go from one part of the lock to the other part from rubbing the gate. I put each tube through the gate and marked where to cut off the excess. I took about 45 minutes to install the lock on my vinyl gate. I had been using a carabiner to keep the gate closed on the inside, and invariably I would try to go in on the side opposite the carabiner. This lock will save me many trips through my house. I really like this lock. ## Frequently Bought Together - Keystone Black Zinc Diecast Metal Key Lockable Latch | 2-Sided | Keyed Alike | KLADV-M2-BK-KA - D&D Technologies TCHD1L2S3BTS TruClose Heavy Duty Gate Hinges, for Self Closing Metal, Wood, or Vinyl Gates up to 154 Pounds, with Alignment Legs, Black, 2 Count - D&D TECHNOLOGIES LL3GH Gate Handle, Reversible for Right or Left Handing, Side-Fixing Legs Provide Easy Alignment & Added Strength, for Any Square Post Gate --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/32868050-keystone-black-zinc-diecast-metal-key-lockable-latch-2-sided](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/32868050-keystone-black-zinc-diecast-metal-key-lockable-latch-2-sided) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-08-27*
