I have had the smaller ones and you have to constantly adjust them. This one never needs adjusting. Also the smaller ones would not latch a lot of times. This one latches 98% of the time. Very happy with it. Review: Heavy Duty - I bought the 6 and 8 inch versions. The 6 was very flimsy so I returned it. The 8 is very heavy duty. The quality difference between the 6 inch is huge. The latch opens very smoothly. I mounted it on heavy steel gate. The previous latch broke off in the wind. This one should last a long time. I replaced the wood screws with stainless steel M6 bolts which I tapped into the steel posts. The latch is a bit longer than I needed, but better than too short. The pivoting bar is also a nice touch in case the gate starts to sag a little. The black finish is good quality and resists scratching. I've very happy with the build quality and the smooth operation. Update: It's been over a year and the latch has held up well. The black coating has worn off where the bolt contacts the receiver and in a few other friction spots. This gate tends to get slammed frequently so I am pleased by the build quality. I ordered a second latch from a vendor called Cargo.co and was disappointed that they sent me a latch that was clearly used and in poor cosmetic condition. I had better luck with the vendor Stanley National Hardware. ## Features - National Hardware V23A Adjust-O-Matic Heavy-Duty Gate Latches are designed for flush stockade type gates with spacing between post and gate. - Suitable for fences, horse barns, cattle gates and other heavy duty uses. - Two pivot holes are provided for either right or left hand mounting. - Smooth Black finish with excellent corrosion resistance because they are triple-protected with zinc-plate, Black finish chromate dip and Black finish baked on enamel finish. - Hot-rolled steel case and strike; steel rod bar - Designed for a flush stockade-type gate with spacing between post and gate - Two pivot holes are provided for either right or left hand application - LifeSpan Limited Lifetime Warranty - Latches automatically ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0009SS104 | | Batteries Included? | No | | Batteries Required? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #109,865 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #337 in Gate Latches | | Brand | National Hardware | | Center To Center Spacing | 8 Inches | | Color | Black | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (297) | | Date First Available | June 15, 2006 | | Exterior Finish | Zinc | | Finish | Oil Rubbed | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Handle Attachment Mechanism | Pivoting Mechanism | | Handle Material | Zinc | | Included Components | National Hardware V23A 8" Adjust-O-Matic® Heavy Duty Gate Latch | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Depth | [Less than 6 inches] | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Weight | 1.74 pounds | | Item model number | N101-394 | | Lock Type | Padlock | | Manufacturer | National Hardware | | Material | Plastic | | Metal Type | Zinc | | Number Of Pieces | 1 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | N101-394 | | Product Dimensions | 6"L x 1"W | | Size | 8 Inch | | Special Feature | Easy to Install | | Special Features | Easy to Install | | Specific Uses For Product | Gate | | Theme | Modern | | UPC | 077348736328 038613101395 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** National Hardware - **Color:** Black - **Material:** Plastic - **Product Dimensions:** 6"L x 1"W - **Style:** Modern ## Images ![V23A 8" Adjust-O-Matic® Heavy Duty Gate Latch - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61mIT3HavGL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works *by J***I on October 21, 2025* This unit is very heavy duty and just works.

Some sag in gates need to be taken into account. ## Frequently Bought Together - National Hardware V23A 8" Adjust-O-Matic® Heavy Duty Gate Latch - Nuvo Iron LCWSLBLK Spring Loaded Catch w/Adjustable Cable Gate Latch, Black - Self-Locking Gate Latch,Automatic Gravity Lever Latch for Wooden Fence Post Mount, Door Latch for Secure Pool,Garden,Shed,Black Powder Coated for Rust Resistance --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/10540740-v23a-8-adjust-o-matic-heavy-duty-gate-latch](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/10540740-v23a-8-adjust-o-matic-heavy-duty-gate-latch) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
