One-handed operation
Open and Close With One Hand
Keep hold of your bucket, lead rope, or reins. HGL opens one-handed from the ground or saddle, so you can move through the gate without stopping the job.
Livestock security
Easy for You. Harder for Livestock.
HGL’s patent-pending Twist ’N’ Lock technology requires both a lift and a twist to open. That second intentional movement adds security against accidental opening caused by livestock, vibration, or gate movement.
Strong Mounting
Secured by Custom Steel Fasteners
HGL mounts to your pipe gate with three custom fasteners made from stainless steel and powder-coated for outdoor protection. They hold the latch securely without welding or drilling into your gate.
The latch and complete mounting system held during a 1,800-pound load test while the gate and hinges failed.
Outdoor durability
Built for Year-Round Farm Use
100% solid steel. Powder-coated. No springs to rust, stick, or wear out. HGL is built to stay outside and keep working through changing seasons.
Flush opening
No Protruding Parts
Many gate latches leave hardware protruding into the opening. When HGL is open, the end of the latch sits flush with the gate, helping reduce snags on tack, clothing, lead ropes, and equipment as horses, livestock, and people pass through.
Quick Installation
Installs Without Welding
Installs in under 10 minutes using basic power tools. Check your gate measurements before beginning.
