The lockable dropbolt does exactly the same job as a standard dropbolt but with one advantage…. For added security, as it’s name implies the lockable drop-bolt can be locked meaning your timber gates can be secured in both the open and closed position.
When the dropbolt is in the dropped position, a padlock can be added (not supplied). with the lockable dropbolt you can lock your gate in the closed position – this will still allow pedestrian access in a pair of driveway gates (unless you’ve added a lockable drop bolt to both gates).
The lockable dropbolt is ideal if you’ve a caravan or trailer (or any vehicle for that matter!) which you want to keep secure on your driveway, but still want to allow pedestrian access.
You can also add the lockable dropbolt to side hung garage doors, giving a bit more piece of mind! If you require a lockable dropbolt with your gate order then please mention it to us as you place your order.
The lockable dropbolt is only available in a galvanised finish and we do not supply the padlock.
