A top pull gravity latch device to selectively secure a gate in a closed position to block the opening or portal in a fence, wall or other barrier comprising a latch assembly including a latch actuator assembly, intermediate pull actuator assembly and pivotal latch member each movable between a first and second position and a keeper assembly including a striker pin to selectively engage the pivotal latch member to move the pivotal latch member from the first to second position when the keeper assembly is moved from the second to first position and back to the first position wherein the gate is securely closed when the latch actuator assembly, intermediate pull actuator assembly, pivot latch member of the latch assembly and the striker pin of the keeper assembly are all in the first position and wherein the intermediate pull actuator assembly is moved from the first to second position to move the pivotal latch member from the first to second position clearing the striker pin of the keeper assembly to be moved from the first to second position to allow the gate to be opened.

Gravity latch

A dual actuator pneumatic gate closer coupled to a gate including a pair of pneumatic actuators each including a tube having a first and a second end together with a piston/rod combination movable between an extended and retracted position, a first and second coupling block affixed to the first end of each tube and each rod respectively, a spring movable between an expanded and compressed configuration disposed within each tube and a first and second actuator rod coupled between the gate and the first coupling block and a gate post and the second coupling block respectively such that when the gate is moved to an open position each actuator rod extends the corresponding rod compressing the corresponding spring and when the gate is released each spring expands retracting the corresponding rod extending the corresponding actuator rod closing the gate.
