Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this be used on metal gates?

Yes, but you will need appropriate drill bits and self-tapping screws suitable for metal surfaces.

What is the maximum padlock shackle size it can take?

The eye is designed for standard padlocks; however, ensure the shackle diameter does not exceed the size of the hole provided on the bolt.

Is this bolt weather-proof?

It is designed for outdoor use and is weather-resistant, though regular maintenance will extend its lifespan against corrosion.

Are the screws included?

Yes, standard fixings are provided, but ensure they are compatible with the specific material of your gate.

Can I mount this on the inside of a door?

Yes, the bolt can be mounted on the interior or exterior depending on your security needs and door clearance.

Troubleshooting

Bolt is sticking or difficult to slide

Check for debris in the track and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the shoot.

Bolt does not line up with the receiver

Loosen the mounting screws slightly to adjust the alignment, then re-tighten once the bolt moves freely into the receiver.

The bolt feels loose against the gate

Ensure the mounting screws are driven fully into the surface and that the door frame itself is not loose or warped.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable heavy-duty metal construction
  • Suitable for both horizontal and vertical installation
  • Compatible with padlocks for enhanced security
  • Designed specifically for harsh outdoor conditions
  • Easy to install on various door types

Cons

  • Padlock not included with purchase
  • Requires manual drilling for installation
  • Finish may show wear over long periods of extreme exposure
  • Heavier than standard light-duty bolts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires standard woodworking tools, including a drill and screwdriver. Ensure the mounting surface is solid wood or metal; for hollow or composite materials, additional backing plates may be required to ensure the 0.57kg unit is supported correctly.

Compatibility Checklist:

  • Works with wooden gates, sheds, stables, and metal garage doors.
  • Can be used in conjunction with a padlock with a shackle diameter compatible with the bolt eye.

Care Instructions:

  • Regularly inspect screws for tightness to prevent the bolt from rattling.
  • Apply a light machine oil or silicone-based lubricant to the shoot and housing once or twice a year to maintain smooth sliding action.
  • Periodically inspect the silver finish for signs of surface oxidation; if found, clean with a soft cloth and apply a protective rust-inhibiting coating.
