Of various homemade self-latching mechanisms, this is most sensible.
Hard to ice up and freeze, easy to add a lock, could be made entirely on site, and disconnecting the function very easy too. Doubtless other features escape me, as yet not dependent on a gate.

No secret, probably my second favorite attraction to HMT.net
