Product Information

Full details

The TIMCO Adjustable Gate Eye with Nuts is designed for homeowners, landscapers, and farmers who need a reliable and adaptable solution for hanging field, garden, or driveway gates. Its primary benefit is the threaded shank, which allows for precise alignment adjustments both during initial installation and years later as posts shift or settle. While this heavy-duty hardware offers excellent stability and rust protection, users should note that the M19 diameter requires a substantial pilot hole, making it better suited for solid wooden posts than thin or fragile materials.

FAQs

What is the diameter of the shank?

The shank has a diameter of 19mm (M19).

How long is the threaded portion?

The threaded shank is 150mm in length.

Can this be used on metal posts?

While designed primarily for timber, it can be used on metal posts if they are pre-drilled to the correct diameter, though care must be taken to ensure the post wall is thick enough to support the gate load.

Does it come with the nuts included?

Yes, it is supplied with two heavy-duty nuts for secure locking.

Will it rust near the coast?

The hot dipped galvanised finish is highly resistant to corrosion, but in extreme coastal environments, routine inspection for signs of wear is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Gate is sagging despite adjustment

Check if the gate post itself is leaning; if so, adjust the gate eye further out to compensate or reinforce the post foundation.

Nuts are difficult to turn

Clear dirt and corrosion from the threads using a wire brush and apply a small amount of penetrating oil or grease.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Precision alignment through adjustable threading
  • Excellent long-term corrosion resistance
  • Heavy-duty load-bearing capacity
  • Easy to adjust after initial installation

Cons

  • Requires a large hole for installation
  • Not suitable for lightweight fence panels
  • Requires periodic checks of the locking nuts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, mark your desired position on the gate post and drill a pilot hole slightly larger than the 19mm diameter of the shank. Insert the gate eye through the post and secure it using the provided twin nuts, one on each side of the timber, to "lock" the eye in place. Always ensure the threaded portion is sufficiently engaged within the post to handle the weight of your specific gate. For maintenance, check the nuts annually to ensure they remain tight and clear any debris from the threads to keep adjustments smooth. If the galvanised coating is scratched during installation, apply a touch-up cold galvanising spray to maintain rust protection.
