Description

Gatemate Fixed Spring Self Closing Hinges With Legs – Heavy Duty Timber Gate Hardware

Overview

Struggling to hold a heavy timber gate level while trying to space, measure, and screw down your hinges is a chore. The Gatemate Self-Closing Hinges With Legs eliminate this installation headache entirely. By integrating a structural 90-degree corner flange into both leaves of the hinge, the hardware squares itself against the timber faces instantly.

Once fixed, these alignment legs act as heavy-duty load brackets. Instead of relying solely on the shear strength of your screws, the physical corner lips absorb the impact of the slamming gate leaf. This makes them the ultimate trade-grade solution for heavy timber pedestrian gates, child safety zones, and commercial outdoor perimeters where failure is not an option.

Key Features

  • Dual-Aspect Fixing Strength: Screws drive into both the front face and the inside edge of your timber timber rails, double-anchoring the hinge to prevent pulling or tearing over time.

  • All-Weather Torsion Core: The fully embedded internal spring mechanism stays shielded from moisture, frost, and dust, outlasting traditional external steel gate springs.

  • Aesthetic Hardware Cover Caps: Supplied with matching snap-on composite caps that conceal the fixing screw heads for a sleek, premium, and tamper-resistant finish.

  • Zero Bleeding or Rust Stains: Unlike traditional metal gate hinges, this high-tech composite completely eliminates ugly orange rust lines from running down and ruining your beautiful treated timber.

Installation Tip

Pro Tip: Simply push the hinge firmly into the corner edge of your gate post and gate frame so the 90-degree alignment legs rest completely flat against the wood. Secure the side screws first; this will pull the front leaf perfectly flush against the face of the timber automatically. Always check that your post is plumb using a spirit level before drilling, and use the included snap-on safety caps to seal out dirt and finish the look.
