TIMBER GATE STRAP 450MM & GUDGEON HINGE ROTECH FG7450 at a glance

The Rotech Timber Gate Strap & Gudgeon Hinge (450mm) is a heavy-duty bolt-through timber gate hinge kit designed to hang and support timber gates on timber posts. It combines a gate strap that attaches to the gate leaf and a gudgeon pin that bolts through the timber post, allowing the gate to pivot smoothly. This hinge set is built for strength, durability, and easy adjustment, and is suitable for a wide range of timber gates on rural, agricultural, or property boundary fencing applications. Its design helps prevent gate sag and provides a wide opening angle.

• Hanging and supporting timber field gates on rural, farm, or property boundary fencing

• Ideal for gates needing wide range opening (180°+) for livestock handling, vehicle access, or farm use

 

Mount the gudgeon hinge to your gate post using the lag bolts provided, ensuring the hinge pin sits vertical and the gate hangs true. Attach the 450mm timber gate strap to the gate frame with the bolts supplied, aligning it so the strap wraps around the post without binding. Hang the gate on the hinge, check it swings freely without catching, and tighten all bolts firmly once you're satisfied with the hang. Tips: Use a spirit level when installing the gudgeon hinge—if it's even slightly out of plumb, your gate will sag or swing shut on its own. Don't over-tighten the bolts on timber gates; you'll split the wood, especially in old hardwood posts. Check your gate hang every few months during the wet season as timber moves with moisture changes.
