The TIMCO Cranked Band & Hook On Plates Hinges (450mm) are engineered for heavy-duty door and gate installations where a flush mount to a post or frame is required. Designed for durability in both domestic and agricultural environments, these hinges offer superior corrosion resistance, though installers must ensure they use a third hinge for gates taller than 2130mm to prevent structural warping.

Yes, the hot-dipped galvanised finish provides excellent corrosion resistance, making them a great choice for urban and industrial areas, including coastal regions.
No, every pair comes complete with the necessary carriage bolts, nuts, washers, and countersunk screws.
Yes, but you must use a third hinge to prevent the gate or frame from warping.
You can mount the top or bottom pin upside down to create an 'interlocking' effect that makes it nearly impossible to lift the gate off the hooks.
The cranked design offsets the hinge, allowing the gate or door to sit flush against the frame when closed.
Verify if the gate height exceeds 2130mm and install a third hinge for added support. Check that the post has not shifted.
Clean any accumulated dirt or grit from the pin and hook area, then apply a small amount of heavy-duty silicone or lithium grease.
Re-tighten the carriage bolts and screws; consider using a thread-locking compound if vibration is a recurring issue.
Installation requires basic hand tools and a drill. Begin by marking the mounting positions on both the gate and the frame to ensure the hinges are perfectly aligned. Secure the hinge plates using the included carriage bolts and screws. Periodically check the fixings to ensure they remain tight, especially during the first few weeks after installation as wood may settle. The galvanised finish requires little maintenance; however, a light cleaning with a damp cloth can remove debris buildup. If the gate becomes stiff, a high-quality marine-grade lubricant can be applied to the hook and pin junction.
