The Non-Key Lockable Model (SKU 928020) latch is not recommended for gates protecting swimming pools, as it is a latch that can easily be opened by a child. Made from quality molded polymers with a stainless steel bolt and spring. Always check with your building department's local building code requirements before installing in swimming pool areas. And please remember that swimming pool gates must be checked on a regular basis to make sure that they are functioning properly in order to keep small children out of the swimming pool area.
