The Timco Adjustable Gate Eyes (M19 x 100mm) are designed for homeowners, contractors, and DIY enthusiasts looking to achieve precise alignment for timber and metal gates. The primary benefit is the threaded shank, which allows for fine-tuning gate height and level to prevent dragging or latch misalignment; however, note that the zinc-plated finish requires regular maintenance or a top coat in highly corrosive or coastal environments to prevent long-term oxidation.

This specific model features an M19 diameter shank.
Yes, these are designed for use with both timber and metal gate frames provided the mounting hole is drilled correctly.
Yes, each gate eye includes the necessary twin lock nuts for mounting and adjustment.
The total length of this specific model is 100mm.
While zinc-plated, they are best suited for standard domestic use. For coastal areas, we recommend additional protective coating or stainless steel alternatives.
Most standard gate hooks and hinge brackets are compatible with the M19 eye size, but verify your existing hardware diameter before purchase.
Check if the hinge bracket itself has pulled away from the post; ensure the wood or metal mounting point has not rotted or fatigued.
Apply a penetrating oil to the threads to break down any accumulated dirt or surface oxidation before attempting to adjust.
Ensure both lock nuts are tightened against each other securely using two spanners to create a jam-nut effect.
To install, drill a pilot hole into your gate frame or hinge plate consistent with the M19 diameter. Feed the threaded shank through the hole and secure it using the twin lock nuts provided. Ensure you use two spanners to tighten the nuts against each other (locking them) once the desired gate position is achieved.
To maintain the longevity of the zinc plating, avoid scraping the surface with sharp tools during installation. If you live in an area with high rainfall or high salt content, applying a thin layer of exterior-grade metal grease or a weather-resistant paint can significantly extend the life of the product. Check the tightness of the lock nuts annually to ensure they have not loosened due to gate operation.
