Product Description

The From The Anvil Automatic Flush Bolt is a premium, hands-free locking solution for applications where convenience and security are paramount. Also known as a self-latching or gravity bolt, this 6-inch automatic flush bolt features a long weighted arm that automatically engages the bolt into the keep when the door is closed. This eliminates the need to manually push the bolt up, making it ideal for gates, shed doors, and French doors used frequently. Meticulously crafted from solid brass and finished in luxurious satin chrome, it offers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and a timeless aesthetic suitable for traditional and contemporary settings.

How Does the Automatic Flush Bolt Work?

Unlike standard flush bolts requiring manual operation, this bolt features an ingenious weighted design. A long, solid brass arm is integral to the mechanism. When the door is closed, gravity naturally pulls the weighted arm downward, causing the bolt at the other end to shoot forward and automatically lock into the keep. To open the door, simply lift the arm to retract the bolt, allowing the door to swing freely. This self-latching feature makes it incredibly convenient for daily use.

What Materials and Finish Ensure Durability?

This 6-inch automatic flush bolt is manufactured from solid brass, chosen for exceptional strength, durability, and corrosion resistance. The satin chrome finish is applied through high-quality plating, providing a sleek, sophisticated sheen that resists tarnishing and complements a wide range of architectural hardware. This robust construction ensures reliable, maintenance-free service for many years, even in external environments.
