Overview

The Gatemate Spring Loaded Galvanised Bolt is the trade standard for environments demanding rugged dependability and rapid operation. Standard sliding tower bolts can easily vibrate open or be cleverly nudged loose by horses and livestock. This spring-loaded alternative solves that risk completely by maintaining continuous physical tension on the solid steel shoot, holding it firmly inside the keep until you manually pull back the lever.

Crafted from heavy-gauge forged steel, this animal bolt is explicitly built to tolerate the punishing forces of agricultural settings, shifting timber frames, and high-exposure outdoor weather.

Key Features

• High-Tension Steel Spring: The industrial-grade internal spring ensures a tight, vibration-resistant close, making it ideal for moving vehicles like stock trailers and horseboxes.

• Heavy Duty Solid Shoot: A thick steel deadbolt resists high impact and physical shearing forces from large animals bumping against the gate.

• Ultimate Corrosion Resistance: The thick hot-dipped galvanised finish shrugs off heavy rain, frost, and chemical corrosion common in farm yards and stables.

• Flexible Orientation: Can be surface-mounted horizontally on standard timber gate rails or vertically as a heavy-duty drop bolt.

Installation Tip

Pro Tip: When installing on a stable door or livestock gate, mount the bolt on the outside face of the door at a height animals cannot easily reach over. If using it as a slam-latch on a swinging gate, ensure the receiver keep is aligned perfectly straight; a tiny drop of lithium grease on the angled tip of the bolt shoot will allow it to retract and snap shut completely effortlessly when pushed closed.

Overview

The Gatemate 18″ (450mm) Galvanised Drop Down Bolt is a vital piece of hardware for protecting large-scale exterior gates. When installing wide pairs of driveway gates, a standard horizontal latch isn’t enough to fight off heavy gales; the wind can catch the wide timber faces like a sail, putting immense stress on your hinges and locks. This heavy-duty drop bolt anchors the gate vertically into the ground, locking the structure securely in place.

Forged from thick-gauge solid steel and treated with an industrial hot-dipped galvanised wash, this hardware is trade-rated to handle punishing physical strain and constant exposure to wet soil without structural failure.

Key Features

• Deep Steel Shoot Engagement: The extended 450mm solid rod bypasses wide ground clearances with ease, sliding deeply into concrete sockets or ground keeps.

• Anti-Warping Support: Instantly stabilizes the center point of double wooden gates, preventing the timber from twisting or bowing outward over time.

• Ultimate Corrosion Resistance: Heavily galvanised to stop rust in its tracks, eliminating ugly orange rust streaks from bleeding down your premium treated timber.

• Flush Rim Mounting: Can be surface-mounted vertically on the face or inside edge of timber frames, garage doors, or agricultural structures.

Installation Tip

Pro Tip: For double driveway gates, install one drop-down bolt on the “passive” gate leaf (the side you open less frequently). This allows you to lock that leaf firmly into the ground so that your primary “active” gate has a rock-solid, unyielding surface to latch against. For smooth operation, drop a short piece of open-ended metal pipe or a dedicated ground socket into a concrete base to act as a debris-free receiver hole.

Overview

Standard decorative thumb latches look great, but they offer zero security against forced entry. The Gatemate 6-Inch Brenton Sliding Bolt provides an ironclad, mechanical barrier for your outdoor boundaries. By mounting completely flat against the face of your timber frame, this bolt acts as a rigid horizontal bridge that ties your moving gate leaf securely to its fixed fence post, completely eliminating frame rattle and wind play.

Manufactured by Birkdale to strict trade specifications, this compact $150\text{mm}$ version is highly favored by fencing contractors and DIYers alike. It provides massive holding power without looking overly bulky on standard residential side gates, garden boundaries, or tongue-and-groove shed doors.

Key Features

• Anti-Tamper Coach Bolt Hole: Features a specialized square punch-out on the main backplate to accept a security carriage/coach bolt, preventing the hardware from being unbolted from the outside.

• Smooth Slide Performance: The cylindrical guide tracks are precision-rolled to ensure the solid steel pin slides freely without binding or jamming, even if the timber expands.

• 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: Can be mounted completely flush horizontally for left-handed or right-handed opening gates, or vertically as a heavy-duty drop bolt.

Trade Installation & Security Tip

Pro Tip: To maximize your boundary security, always install a heavy-duty structural coach bolt through the square punch-out hole on the main backplate. This requires drilling clean through your gate stile and securing a washer and nut tightly from the inside face of the property. This simple step ensures that even if an intruder attempts to unscrew the exposed exterior wood screws with a screwdriver, the bolt remains permanently locked to the frame timber and cannot be pried free.

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.
