FAQ
How do I choose the right hinge size for my gate?
For gates up to 1.2m wide and 50kg, use 4-inch (100mm) hinges. For gates 1.2-2m wide and 50-100kg, use 6-inch (150mm) hinges. For gates 2-3m wide and 100-150kg, use 8-inch (200mm) hinges. For gates over 3m wide and 150-200kg, use 10-inch (250mm) hinges. Always use at least 2 hinges per gate. For gates taller than 2m, use 3 hinges. When in doubt, go one size larger for longer service life.
What is the advantage of bearing-type hinges over plain hinges?
Bearing-type hinges incorporate a bushing or roller bearing at the pivot point, which reduces friction between the pin and barrel. This results in smoother gate operation, less wear on hinge components, longer service life, and the ability to handle heavier loads without sagging. The grease fitting allows periodic lubrication to maintain smooth operation. Plain hinges have metal-on-metal contact and can wear faster, especially under heavy loads or frequent use.
Should I choose bolt-on or weld-on hinges?
Bolt-on hinges are suitable for wooden gates and posts, and for steel gates where welding is not practical. They use lag bolts or through bolts for secure attachment. Weld-on hinges are designed for steel gate frames and posts, providing maximum strength and a cleaner appearance. Weld-on hinges are preferred for heavy industrial and security gates. Choose based on your gate and post material.
How do I maintain these hinges for long service life?
For bearing-type hinges, apply grease through the grease fitting every 6 months or whenever the gate starts to squeak. Use a general-purpose lithium grease or marine grease for outdoor applications. Check the mounting bolts or welds periodically for tightness and integrity. If the gate starts to sag, it may indicate worn bearings or loose mounting hardware. Replace worn hinges promptly to prevent gate damage.
