- Compact latch shape suited to sheds, gates, and small doors
Curved ball handle tops this sliding door bolt, made as a latch for sheds, gates, and doors around your home. The bolt piece slides across a fixed base, giving you a simple way to close off a door from the inside.
This version has an improved shape around the ball handle area, built for a cleaner look where the handle meets the slide. The base mounts to your door frame while the bolt piece moves across it into a receiver, giving your space a visible, hands-on latch.
Use it on a shed door, a gate, or any spot where you want an extra latch you can see and reach. It has a plain, practical look that fits into a garage, workshop, or backyard setting.
