Jimlock Gate Lock

Jimlock Gate Lock FENCING Gates 18-5-36 I've been building and improving this gate lock for 45 years. I call it the "Jimlock". It simply lag-bolts to the top of a fence post and can be easily adjusted as fence gates loosen up over time. It consists of a lever handle that pivots back and forth on a pivot at the top of a piece of angle iron that bolts to the side of a fencepost. A loop of steel that fits over the top of the gate post is held to the side of the lever handle by a bolt that can be screwed in or out to tighten up the lock. The bolt can also be easily removed and replaced with a longer or shorter bolt as needed. We make two models - one that can be padlocked for $25 and one that can't for $20.
