Hi @Christine12,

Thank you for your question about gate hardware for a timber gate.

My suggestion is to grab some tee hinges such as these Zenith 200mm Matte Black Tee Gate Hinge which will look nice with a LokkLatch General Purpose Gate Latch.

This set up would require you to cut a hole for your hand to go through to unlatch the gate from the outside. This can be done with a hole saw or jig saw.

You might like to have a look at How To Install A Gate Latch for some further guidance.

Let me know what you think and if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
