So installed 23+ UL3 and started adding Latch 5 (hate all the bridges), but one thing that was an oversight is that the latch is not weather rated. In less than 1 year, all of the locks are starting to corrode heavily, though they are under cover, they are exposed and therefore are susceptible to the humidity of the area. I’m having to find a stainless steel alternative and we’re installing glass screen doors for added protection. I think this will work, but U-Tec needs to spend a little more for added resilience of their product or offer it as an upgrade…
