Need a lock for my gate
My fence is old wood and there's no latch on it. last time i watched my parents dog, he got out through the fence...luckily a neighbor grabbed him. i'm watching him again next week and we need to lock these gates. is there something i can put on it? i'm afraid the wood will just crack.

Re: Need a lock for my gate
Just go to Home Depot and see if something looks good. I am not sure based on your concerns about the wood splitting.

Re: Need a lock for my gate
When we built our gate we just purchased a lock from Home Depot. They have a big selection.

Re: Need a lock for my gate
How does the gate stay closed now? Latches/locks are various in size and configuration at HD. I'm sure you can find something that works for you fairly cheap at HD. I've used several varieties, depending on what I wanted to accomplish. There's the very simple slide lock, similar to a lot of bathroom stall doors. There are various latches that can be opened from either side of the gate (the slide lock can't be opened from the opposite side).
