    Sliding Door Latch

    $95.00

    The sliding door latch is a two-way latch designed for sliding patio doors, serving as a safety measure to prevent young children from exiting. It can be disengaged** when children are not present, and is also intended to assist individuals with special needs, such as those with autism, sleepwalkers, and adults with dementia.
    **Disangaging feature is not acceptable for pool safe regulation.

    Our sliding door latch is suitable for use with sliding patio doors and can enhance pool safety. Depending on local regulations, doors and gates may be configured to act as safety barriers around pools or spas.

    Disclaimer: The above checklist is for educational purposes only and does not replace a professional pool inspection.

    Pool Safety: Sliding Door Latch FAQ

    Q: Why are sliding door latches important for pool safety?

    A: They help prevent kids or pets from getting to the pool area by making sure the door stays closed and secured. A good latch also helps you stay compliant with local rules and gives you peace of mind.

    Q: What does “self-closing” mean for a sliding door?

    A: It means the door should shut on its own and latch securely without you having to fiddle with it every time.

    Q: What does “self-latching” mean?

    A: The latch should engage automatically when the door closes. Many rules place the latch high enough so little ones can’t reach it.

    Q: How high should the latch be installed?

    A: A common guideline is about 1.5 meters (roughly 5 feet) above the floor, but check your local codes to be sure.

    Q: Why do some latches require dual actions to open?

    A: Requiring two actions (like lifting and sliding at the same time) makes it harder for young children to open the door.

    Q: Do pool safety rules vary by region?

    A: Yes. Different places have different requirements. It’s best to check local building codes and pool safety laws.

    Q: Can you give detailed legal info?

    A: – The Australian Standard AS 1926.1 covers pool safety, including door latches.

    Q: Are alarms part of the safety setup?

    A: In some places, yes. Door alarms that sound when the door opens add an extra layer of protection.

    Q: What kinds of products should I look for?

    A: Look for pool-safe sliding door latches that are high-mounted and self-latching. If your current door doesn’t meet standards, you can consider aftermarket safety devices like latch guards or alarms.

    Q: Any tips for installation?

    A: It’s smart to hire a professional to ensure proper installation and compliance. Then, regularly inspect and maintain the latch so it stays secure and functional.

    Q: Is there a quick checklist I can use?

    A: Absolutely:

    • Is the latch self-closing and self-latching?
    • Is the latch mounted at or above 1.5 meters?
    • Does the latch require dual actions to operate?
    • Are alarms or extra safety measures in place if required locally?
    • Has a professional checked the installation?
    • Is the latch inspected and maintained regularly?

    Q: Where can I get more help?

    A: Check with local authorities or a pool safety professional to confirm your area’s specific requirements. And I’m happy to tailor this to your location or needs.

    Installation

     

     

    Attention please.

    • When you open the package, you will find one small screw next to the long screws.
    • Optionally, this screw should be carefully placed in the place marked with the arrow as in the side photo.
    • The aim here is to make the latches more suitable to the desired standards if they are to be used for pool safety.
    •  When this screw is inserted here, the ability to disable the latch when desired is eliminated.

     

    LATCHback Installation Instructions:

    Required tools: A Cordless Drill, 3/8” and 7/32” Drill Bits, and a Philips Screw Driver Please note: Once before drilling and screwing, check it several times then do the job. Remember, it’s your responsibility.

    • Slide the door in the closing direction, all the way.
    • Place the paper template (supplied) on the door at a minimum height of 150 cm from the ground.
    • Drill the door with 3/8″ drill bit for the middle hole. Use a 7/32″ drill bit for the other holes. (Before drilling with a large drill bit, a centering hole is first drilled with a small diameter drill bit.)
    • Extreme Caution– Make sure that the drill bits should not hit the glass behind.
    • Connect the two handles using the long screws provided. Make sure the inner handle (with deactivation button) is installed inside.
    • Slide the door in the closing direction; Manually adjust the striker and latch hook to best fit together. This process is vital for the efficient operation of the latch mechanism. Before screwing in, try a few times and decide on the position where the latch hook hooks easily and efficiently.
    • In this state, mark the screw locations for the strike/keeper and mount it.
    • Note: Latch spacers are used when the latch is too far from the keeper.
    • Please make the right choice; returns are not accepted.

    To disable LATCHback, turn the lever to the left (counter clockwise) until you hear a click. Press the button in the lower left corner to reactivate LATCHback sliding door latch. This feature is not compliant with pool safety rules. Please read and apply the second paragraph above.

    • Disclaimer: The above checklist does not substitute for a pool inspection and is for educational purposes only.

    Sliding Door Self Closer – Slideback

    Sliding Door Self Closing
    $185.00 – $200.00Price range: $185.00 through $200.00
    Eco-friendly pneumatic sliding door self closer is semi-automatic and works without an external power supply. It is designed to automatically close doors after they have been opened, utilising air pressure to facilate the closing mechanism. This type of door closer is particularly effective in high traffic areas, helping ensure energy efficiency, security and the containment of controlled environment. Such as in hospitals or laboratories, schools, nursing homes & swimming pools, IT centres, offices, etc. Easy to install and easy to use. When the door is opened manually, the self-closing feature allows the door to close automatically. It has a slow closing feature that works just like an automatic door. Suitable door openings:
    • 400 series: 420mm-910mm
    • 693 series: 700mm-1150mm
    • 800 series: 790mm-1360mm
    • 1000 series: 990mm-1760mm      please note: this product comes without optional front case
    Components:
    • Pneumatic Cylinder: This is the main component that uses compressed air to produce the closing force. When the door opens, air is drawn into the cylinder, and when released, it pushes the piston back to close the door.
    • Control Valve: This regulates the air flow into and out of the cylinder, controlling the speed of the door as it closes. The sliding door self closer has an adjustable valve to customize the closing speed. You can find the adjustment screw at the other end where the pistons are not.
    • Arm or Linkage: The linkage connects the pneumatic cylinder to the door. It transfers the linear motion of the piston to the door, facilitating its movement.
    • Mounting Hardware: This includes brackets and screws necessary to install the system onto the door frame and door.
    Benefits:
    • Energy Efficiency: Helps maintain temperature control by closing doors quickly.
    • Safety: Reduces the risk of accidents by ensuring doors are closed, which is particularly vital in areas where safety is a concern.
    • Convenience: Allows for hands-free operation, ideal for busy environments.
