Gate Hinges

Outdoor hinges play a pivotal role in the performance of your garden gates or shed doors. It doesn’t matter how good the gate is – if it hasn’t got the proper gate hinges to support it, you won’t get the best out of it.

Metal gate hinges can be used for a range of applications – as well as garden gates, you can use them with sheds, outbuildings and some garage doors. Choosing the right hinges is essential to ensure any gates or doors are installed safely and provide maximum security.

Heavy-duty gate hinges or galvanised steel hinges are required to hang larger, heavier doors and gates, while medium or light-duty hinges can be used for smaller installations. Choose adjustable gate hinges for easier installations – and for easier adjustments to compensate for gate drops over time.

T Hinges

T hinges are among the most common choices for securing a garden gate. Also known as tee hinges, they are designed with long arms to evenly distribute the gate’s weight – this reduces strain on the hinge to ensure a consistently smooth opening mechanism.

Strap Hinges

Strap hinges are similar to tee hinges, but are made up of two longer arms joined by a central pivot. A popular choice for gates or stable doors, strap hinges provide a solid and secure fixing on both sides.

Hook and Band Hinges

Hook and band hinges are perfect when you need extra strength. These heavy-duty gate hinges come in two parts – a rectangular hinge plate for fitting on the gate post, and a band to attach to the gate. If you need to hang a heavyweight gate or door, these hinges will be up to the task.
