New Surface Latch from Codelocks delivers effortless surface-mounted access control for gates and fences

Newbury, UK, 05 March 2025 – Codelocks is expanding its Gate Solutions by Codelocks range with the introduction of the new Codelocks’ Surface Latch. This highly versatile self-locking, surface mount latch is designed for effortless installation on light-duty gates where traditional mortice latches are not an option. 

Jo Milne-Rowe, Managing Director at Codelocks said: “Protecting perimeters and outdoor areas is becoming a pressing concern for householders and businesses. In Codelocks’ new Surface Latch, we have developed a simple-to-install, self-locking system that provides reliable access control for external gates with low to medium traffic. These are gates that don’t require heavier access control solutions. Typical uses include side gates into shared residential gardens or utility areas, private parking areas and driveways, up to small industrial or agricultural facilities.”

The Surface Latch has a simple, surface mount installation and is non-handed, making it suitable for left- and right-handed and in-swing gates of between 35mm to 60mm thickness. It also works seamlessly with locks from Codelocks’ mechanical and electronic ranges, giving customers the reassurance of Codelocks’ high-performance and reliability. 

Codelocks’ Surface Latch comes in two finishes; Marine Grade black and Brushed Steel giving it an unobtrusive look and suitability for a range of external applications.

Part of the comprehensive Gate Solutions by Codelocks range of products, that are designed to protect perimeters and outdoor areas with easy-to-use, Surface Latch offers effective access control that is perfect for residential and commercial settings. Find out more.
