Lock needed for gate

Murmansk

Someone has asked me to provide a lock for their gate, they want to be able to lock it and open it from either side - rather like a mortise lock rather than a Yale lock.

I suggested a mortise lock as I've seen them fitted to wrought iron gates where there's a metal box welded into position to hold the lock but that wouldn't really work for my gate problem as the box would have no way of being attached

Then I saw this https://www.screwfix.com/p/gatemate-black-double-locking-euro-long-throw-lock-85mm/511hx and wondered if anyone has experience of this or anything better/cheaper. 

I don't fancy a cheap rim lock as it's by the sea and it'd rust very quickly.

No experience of the Screwfix item, but all the reviews of it are good (excepting that the supplied drill bits are poor quality). The Screwfix item looks ideal.

No experience of the one Screwfix sells, but as above the reviews look okay.

I did use this at a previous house -  https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01D8JC700/

The Screwfix one looks like it has a standard euro cylinder though, which might possibly be an advantage if you want to swap the cylinder later.

Thanks for those replies, the Amazon one looks like a better option and it's cheaper so that's good!

I've fitted the one from Screwfix (though bought the same a second time for a different gate from Amazon) and have had no issues.
