Choose the correct handing

For the Black and Pewter latches, stand on the side of the door that opens towards you. If the hinges are on your left, choose a right-hand latch; if they are on your right, choose a left-hand latch. The latch-bar assembly is fitted on this side, with the single ring turn on the other. See our Cottage Latch Handing Guide for illustrated instructions. The Tudor latch has its own handing diagram on its product page.

Check the door before ordering

Check the dimensions and fitting information on the relevant product page before ordering. The Black and Pewter cottage latches are for internal timber doors. For gates, sheds and garden doors, choose the Tudor latch and avoid coastal locations. For other traditional latch styles, browse Traditional Latches.
