Each set includes two hot-dipped galvanized or Black (BPPCG) hinges. Color matched stainless steel wood screws (2" x #12) included. Carriage Bolts sold separately! Strap hinges are through bolted to help keep your gate corners square at 90° and to prevent the gate from sagging. Minimum 1/4" gate gap required to allow for seasonal expansion and contraction of the wood. Gates will open approximately 180° in one direction, folding back against adjacent fence or structure. Hinges offered in left or right handing. Can Be Flush Mounted or Jamb Mounted This item is also available in an adjustable version (#8292-AC). Optional 3" Long Stainless Steel Wood Screws available (#FP-3XL24). Ordering Notes: Carriage bolts for the hinge straps are sold separately! Each strap hinge requires one 3/8" carriage bolt. Carriage bolts must be 1" greater than the thickness of your door/gate. To chose the correct handing, imagine that you are standing with your back to the center of your hinge post. Determine if your gate will swing in or out. The gate will either open to your left hand or your right hand. All gates will require two Hinges per gate leaf. Only use three hinges per leaf if the gate is over 6'H. If you are building a double gate, then you will need a minimum of one cane bolt/drop rod to prevent damage to your hardware and/or gate. Use two cane bolts/drop rods if you will need to hold both gate leafs open. Optional Accessories: Snug Cottage Hardware offers latch styles for traditional or contemporary esthetics. Consider adding a traditional gate closer to your auto latching hardware so that your gate isn't left swinging open.
