Hi,
I'm looking for a way of putting a keypad lock onto an old garden gate. The gate leads from the roadside into the back garden and I need to allow access occasionally to couriers etc.
I was hoping to find a key code lock that would work with an old wobbly gate that doesn't have a good fir between gate and frame. This means that a standard door lock wouldn't work.
It would be great to find a lock where a key code opens a section that a normal gate eye latch goes into. Does any one know of something like this? Or anything else that may work.
The requirement isn't for security as the gate isn't great anyway, but more for allowing access.
Thanks in advance.

That's a good idea. I think it will have to be something like this or a latch and Key code padlock.

Why don't you cut a small hatch in the door that parcels can be posted through and secured with a Suffolk latch?
That way the gate would be secure but still allow for deliveries.

it sounds to me like the amount of time and effort needed will be better spend repairing or replacing your gate and posts.
