Flat Handled Suffolk Latch

Description

A traditionally crafted hand-forged wrought iron Suffolk thumb latch, made using traditional blacksmithing techniques. This complete latch set features a robust thumb latch mechanism with decorative forged detailing, a matching keeper, striker, and fixing hardware. The latch is designed for use on ledged and braced doors, cottage doors, garden gates, and period property restorations.

Each component has been individually forged, giving the ironwork a unique character with subtle hammer marks and an authentic heritage appearance. The latch operates smoothly by depressing the thumb piece, lifting the internal latch bar to release the door. Finished in a traditional blackened beeswax or forge-scale finish, it combines durability with timeless rustic charm.
