Gate Brenton Bolt – Heavy Duty Timber Gate Locking Bolt

Lock down your perimeters with our trade-standard Heavy Duty Brenton Bolts. Familiarly known across the industry as a sliding padbolt, this rugged security fixture utilizes a solid steel shoot pin that glides smoothly into a secure frame keeper plate. Equipped with an integrated padlock loop on the sliding handle, it offers an incredibly dependable, highly cost-effective manual locking solution that completely eliminates wind rattle and frame play on garden gates, workshop sheds, barns, and side entryways.

  • Padlockable Security Loop: The flat sliding handle features a built-in steel loop that aligns perfectly with the backplate, allowing you to easily lock down your boundary with a standard padlock.

  • Solid High-Tensile Steel Shoot: A thick, unyielding forged steel rod resists forced entries, shimming attacks, hacksaws, and extreme seasonal wind pressures.

  • Industrial-Grade Finishes: Available in heavy hot-dipped Galvanised Zinc or a rich, durable Epoxy Matte Black powder coat to eliminate rust and weathering.

  • Anti-Tamper Fixing Profile: Designed with an integrated square punch-out hole on the main backplate to accept a secure coach bolt, preventing external unbolting.

  • Collection / Delivery Allow 3-5 days

Description

Gate Brenton Bolt – Heavy Duty Timber Gate Locking Bolt

Overview

Standard decorative gate latches offer great daily convenience, but they provide virtually zero physical resistance against forced entry. Our structural Gate Brenton Bolt provides an ironclad mechanical barrier for your outdoor boundaries. By mounting completely flat across the face of your timber, this bolt acts as a rigid structural bridge that ties your moving gate leaf securely to its fixed fence post or masonry wall.

Manufactured to strict commercial trade specifications, our Brenton bolts feature precision-rolled cylindrical guide tracks. This guarantees that the solid steel pin slides freely without binding or jamming, even when your timber gates naturally expand, contract, or swell during wet winter months.

Key Features

  • Intruder-Resistant Fastening: The dedicated square coach bolt punch-out allows you to pass a carriage bolt completely through the gate frame, making it impossible to unscrew the lock from the outside.

  • Anti-Bleed Corrosion Shield: Advanced weatherproofing treatments stop ugly orange rust run-off from bleeding down and permanently staining your premium pressure-treated wood.

  • Universal Handing Layout: The symmetrical face-mount design can be installed completely flush horizontally for left-handed or right-handed opening gates, or vertically as a heavy-duty drop bolt.

  • Comprehensive Sizing Range: Available in a full lineup of lengths to accommodate everything from a light backyard bin store to massive, solid-core timber driveway gates.

Trade Installation & Security Tip

Pro Tip: To maximize your property’s perimeter security, always install a heavy-duty structural coach bolt through the square punch-out hole located on the main backplate. This requires drilling a clean hole entirely through your gate stile and tightening a washer and nut securely from the inside face of the property. This simple trade step ensures that even if an opportunistic intruder completely removes the exposed exterior wood screws with a screwdriver, the main bolt housing remains permanently locked to the frame timber and cannot be pried free.
