Clever Gate Lock - I Do Agri

I came across this earlier. A clever idea from a young Irish farmer. Some of you might be familiar with his YouTube channel (I Do Agri).

Reasonably priced at €25, with discounts for larger numbers. 3 types too.

I've chains with snap clips (or locks) on a lot of my gates, don't see much advantage to this setup.

A shackle or nut and bolt in the bolthole also do the same thing.

All the new gates here have a handle with a lip underneath, you have to turn the handle upward to slip it out of the opening.

The opw installed similar gate over an opw waterway bridge. Not realising that the handle had to be turned, to overcome this they installed the gate upside down.

I'm seriously thinking of getting one. I have double gates in the yard and opening and closing them with one hand while carrying something is next to impossible. I even googled for similar ideas there recently with a view to making up my own. For €25 you can't go wrong.

Fair play to him if he can make money out of selling them but a length of chain and a spring hook does the same job at a fraction of the price. They have no place anywhere near a feed barrier tho.

We try to use the same. Not sure of the point of your man putting a padlock on it when there's a mickey mouse chain on it.

For 2 gates closing like that check out the bolt on interlocking latch from O' Donavan engineering much easier and stronger job
