Product Information

Full details

The Perry 450mm Security Throw Over Loop is designed for residential and commercial property owners looking to reinforce the closure of 3-inch gates. Its primary benefit is the added layer of security provided by the robust steel construction and integrated locking staple, though users should note that it requires precise alignment during installation to ensure the loop seats correctly over the gate post.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this be used on gates thinner than 3 inches?

It is specifically designed for 3-inch gates; using it on thinner gates may result in the loop being too loose or misaligned.

Does it come with a padlock?

No, the kit includes the loop, staple, and mounting hardware, but a padlock must be purchased separately.

Is the material weather-resistant?

Yes, it is designed for outdoor gate applications, though regular maintenance is recommended to prevent oxidation.

Can this be installed on a metal gate?

This product is primarily intended for timber gates; mounting on metal would require specialized self-drilling screws or welding.

What is the length of the throw-over bar?

The bar length is 450mm, providing significant reach for standard residential gates.

Troubleshooting

The loop does not reach the staple on the post.

Verify the gate is not sagging. Adjust the gate hinges before repositioning the loop plate.

The handle feels stiff or difficult to lift.

Check for debris or paint buildup around the pivot. Clean the mechanism and apply a silicone-based lubricant.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality steel build ensures longevity
  • Easy-to-use handle design for convenient gate operation
  • Compatible with standard padlocks via the built-in staple
  • Includes all required mounting hardware for quick setup

Cons

  • Requires precise measurements for successful installation
  • Limited to use with 3-inch thick gates
  • Surface mount may be susceptible to heavy force if not installed on solid timber

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, position the main assembly on your gate so that the loop clears the post adequately. Ensure you use the provided fasteners, preferably driving them into the gate rail rather than the cladding for maximum pull-out resistance. The product is compatible with 3-inch gate frames. For maintenance, it is recommended to apply a light machine oil to the pivot point every six months to prevent rust and ensure smooth throwing action. If the gate is located in a coastal environment, consider applying a coat of exterior-grade metal paint to protect the finish.
