Review: If you've never yet tried a latch of this type, you're in for a treat - this is quite a marked step up in quality from usual! - Amazing quality latch this. WAY better than the usual cheap knock-offs one usually has to put up with as 'standard'. They are well lubricated, have a 'double' pawl 'pulling' surface, which I would have thought the sales blurb should include to mark these out from ordinary tubular latches. A really well made, solid, weighty latch. I just wish there was a conventional rectangular version of this mech available to replace standard (ordinary) tubular latches, as I'd happily pay the extra couple of pounds for something that's going to last! This is the first time I've tried these, and in future I will use them whenever I have to install a tubular latch. Although the screws aren't top quality (they never seem to be, when supplied with door fixtures for some reason - we're only talking pence extra to include, so heaven't knows why they don't supply properly decent screws to match the quality of these latches) the strike plate is actually really well made too. Stainless steel, to boot, and comes with a plastic backing for the rectangular one (there are 2 supplied - the other a round one for which you'll need a 32mm drill bit, if you have the space in the door jamb) so as to neatly cover up the wood you had to hack out to fit it, so it looks really neat. I also really liked the gentle 'radius' of the metal tongue that inserts into the hollow, as it means the edge of the catch gently springs into it as you close the door, and it will reduce the chance of damage to the extreme edge of the spring latch bolt itself, should the door be pulled/pushed before the handle is depressed. The only slight negative is there being no screws around the front edge, on the flush face of the tubular latch, to hold it in place. even though I drilled with the required 25mm drill bit, it wasn't a tight enough fit to hold it in place when inserted. If there was a slight taper on it, it would help, or that it be slightly larger in diameter so as to fit tightly. It therefore relies on the square 'spindle' between the door handles to hold it in place. It ought not be a problem, but just seem a little disconcerting. However, having said that, all in all a VERY impressive tubular latch and strike plate kit. Look no further than this quality item.
Review: Better than the usual cheap and nasty tubular latches. - While looking for a better quality tubular latch for my oak internal door this design caught my eye. The completely round design means you don't need to cut a faceplate and just drill a 25mm hole and push it in. The quality of the mechanism is good with good return springs and smooth action and feels very well made unlike the cheap pressed tin cheapo 50p Chinese rip offs. Only down side for me was it's not rose handle bolt through compatible, however there is a small hole for a privacy lock that I took a gamble on and oversize drilled it to accommodate the bolts and it didn't affect the lock at all. All fitted now and works perfectly and smoothly and the round latch looks good on the door edge. Will buy these next time I change a door.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you've never yet tried a latch of this type, you're in for a treat - this is quite a marked step up in quality from usual!
*by I***N on 20 December 2016*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great latches, but the keeps need more thinking through.
*by J***E on 3 March 2022*

Fitting these matches is a dream, just two 25mm holes. To fit the round keeps you need a 32mm bit and this often doesn’t leave a lot of space near the edge of the frame. It’s a recipe for something to go wrong. The keeps would be just as easy if they weren’t so ridiculously fat and had the securing screws top and bottom instead of out the sides that are already too near the edge of the frame. That being said, once you have use these, you never buy a traditional latch again.
