Product Information
Full details
The Perry 100mm Adjustable Gate Eyes are essential hardware for homeowners and contractors looking to securely hang and align external gates. These fittings are designed specifically for 19mm pins, providing a reliable and durable solution for gate stability; however, users should ensure their existing hinge pins match this 19mm diameter before installation to guarantee a proper fit.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Can I use these with pins smaller than 19mm?
No, these are designed specifically for 19mm pins. Using them with smaller pins will result in a loose fit and potential gate instability.
How many come in a pack?
This product comes in a pack of 2.
What is the finish on these gate eyes?
These gate eyes feature a durable grey finish designed for outdoor durability.
Who manufactures this product?
They are manufactured by Perry, the UK's largest independent ironmongery manufacturer.
Are these adjustable gate eyes suitable for heavy driveway gates?
Yes, provided the gate weight does not exceed the load-bearing capacity of your specific mounting configuration and the 19mm pin support.
Troubleshooting
Gate remains uneven after adjustment
Ensure both top and bottom gate eyes are adjusted incrementally; sometimes adjusting only one hinge can put excessive stress on the other.
Difficulty rotating the adjustable eye
Clean the threads with a wire brush to remove debris or paint, then apply a penetrating oil to loosen the mechanism.
Excessive rattling or play in the hinge
Verify the pin diameter is exactly 19mm. If the pin is worn down below 19mm, the eye will have too much slack and the pin may need replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, slide the gate eye onto your existing 19mm pin. Use the threaded adjustable section to rotate the eye toward or away from the post to find the perfect clearance. For longevity, it is recommended to apply a small amount of waterproof grease to the pin interface during initial setup to reduce friction and prevent corrosion. Periodically check the adjustment nuts to ensure they remain tight and clear away any debris or buildup that may accumulate around the hinge joint during winter months.
