The Timco 12-inch Light Tee Hinges are an ideal solution for DIYers and woodworkers looking to hang lightweight doors, shed gates, or cupboard doors with a traditional aesthetic. These hinges excel at distributing weight across the door face, ensuring smooth operation for gates between 600mm and 900mm wide; however, users should note that mounting hardware is not included, requiring the purchase of appropriate screws for the specific substrate.

No, fixings are not included. You will need to select screws that are appropriate for the material and thickness of your door.
These are designed for light-duty applications. For best results, use them on doors or gates between 600mm and 900mm in width.
Yes, they are suitable for sheltered outdoor environments. They are not recommended for fully exposed areas without proper maintenance.
A third hinge is recommended if the door or gate height exceeds 2130mm to prevent warping.
They are non-handed, meaning they can be used for either left- or right-hand opening doors.
Check the level of your frame. If the door exceeds 2130mm, ensure a third hinge is installed to support the center.
Clean with a mild detergent and dry thoroughly. For outdoor use, ensure the location is sheltered from direct rain and harsh weather.
Ensure you are using the correct pilot drill bit size for your chosen screws. Avoid over-tightening with a high-torque power drill.
Installation requires basic hand tools including a drill, screwdriver, and a spirit level. Since these are non-handed, verify your desired swing direction before marking your holes.
For ongoing care, keep the hinge pins free of debris. While the zinc plating offers corrosion resistance, periodic cleaning with a damp cloth in salt-air or high-humidity environments will help extend the lifespan of the finish.
