Description
Overview:
The Perry 450mm (18 inches) Traditional Garage Door Drop Bolt is a heavy-duty surface-mounted fastener for securing hinged doors on garages, sheds, gates, and workshops. Made from steel with a galvanised finish, it resists rust and everyday wear, making it suitable for outdoor and unheated buildings. The bolt comes complete with a square fixing plate and a tubular receiver to anchor the bolt into the floor or a sill, giving a solid locked position when engaged. Supplied with countersunk (CSK) wood screws, it is straightforward to fit to timber doors and frames with basic hand tools. With its 450mm (18 inches) length, the bolt provides good reach and holding strength, helping to keep doors firmly closed and deter unauthorised access.
