This hinge set is specifically designed for wooden field gates up to 75mm thick.
The set includes the main hinge components, but you will need to provide standard carriage bolts or appropriate fasteners for your specific post and gate material.
This set is optimized for wooden field gates and is not recommended for metal gates due to different mounting requirements.
The hinge pin diameter is 19mm.
Yes, the galvanization process provides a protective layer against rust and corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor use.
While it is a straightforward DIY installation, always ensure you have a spirit level to verify that your gate post is perfectly vertical before installing the hooks.
Use the adjustable bottom fitting to raise the gate height until it clears the ground surface.
Apply a high-quality, water-resistant grease to the hinge pin and hook contact points.
Check all mounting bolts on the double straps for tightness and adjust the bottom hinge position to redistribute weight.
To install this set, ensure your timber gate is no thicker than 75mm.
For maintenance, periodically inspect the bolts for tightness, especially during the first few weeks after installation. While galvanized, applying a thin layer of exterior-grade grease to the hinge pin every six months will maintain a smooth, silent operation.
