B&Q Zinc effect Auto latch

This is simply terrible. Fitting it is relatively straight forward but the actual mechanism is so unreliable. This is not good when fitted to a loft hatch! Closes fine, but only opens when it feels like it. Fitted yesterday and it opened a couple of times after several attempts. Been trying for the last hour today and I think I’m going to have to smash my new hatch! use a different solution!

Bought this yesterday fitted it and it did not work took it back to the store they replaced it immediately. Fitted in two minutes and works fine.

I bought this product to replace original which was beginning to fail after several years. I thought would be easy to fit, however, it was not easy and did not work at all. I now have to buy an alternative product.

The catch worked a treat, this is a very good catch for our loft access hatch

I bought this to replace one that I had installed in 1980 which I think was a good length of time for this product to last
