Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Suffolk latch?
A Suffolk latch is a traditional door fastening consisting of a pivoting bar (the latch) that drops into a keeper on the door frame. It is operated by pressing a thumb lever on one side, which lifts the bar and allows the door to open. Suffolk latches are commonly used on ledge-and-brace doors, stable doors, garden gates, and outbuildings.
Is it suitable for external doors?
Yes — Suffolk latches are commonly used on external doors including sheds, outbuildings, barn doors, and garden gates. Check the finish specification for weather resistance. For exposed coastal or high-moisture locations, a galvanised or stainless finish is recommended.
Can I use it on a standard internal door?
Suffolk latches are best suited to ledge-and-brace, plank, or cottage-style doors rather than modern hollow-core interior doors. They suit any door where a traditional, country aesthetic is desired.
What fixings do I need?
Fit with standard wood screws through the pre-drilled holes on the backplate and keeper. Fixings may or may not be included — check the packaging.
How do I adjust the latch bar?
The latch bar pivots on a central pin and should be set so it drops cleanly into the keeper when the door closes. Adjust the keeper height on the door frame to ensure smooth, reliable operation.
Steel or cast iron construction with painted or galvanised finish. Check product packaging for exact specification.
