Why choose a double strap hinge for field gates?

Double strap hinges are the traditional and most reliable choice for wooden field gates because they:
  • Provide extra strength: The double strap design distributes weight across a larger area, reducing stress on the post and gate.
  • Allow adjustment: Unlike fixed hinges, double strap hinges can be adjusted to correct gate drop, sag, or uneven wear over time.
  • Handle heavy gates: Suitable for gates up to 14ft wide and 3" thick, making them ideal for farm and field gate applications.
  • Offer long-term durability: Galvanised finish and robust construction mean these hinges last for years in outdoor conditions.
  • Are easy to install: Pre-drilled holes and included fasteners make installation straightforward without special tools.

How to install this hinge set

For best results when installing field gate double strap hinges:
  1. Mark the post: Use a level to mark a perfectly vertical line on the end post where the hinges will be installed.
  2. Measure hinge positions: Measure the distance between the bottom of the bottom hinge and the top of the top hinge, then mark the two spots on the post.
  3. Drill holes: Drill level holes at the marked positions using the correct drill bit size for the gate hanger bolts.
  4. Install bottom hinge: Fit the bottom gudgeon/spigot first, then set the gate on it.
  5. Install top hinge: Position the top strap against the post, push it home, and secure with nuts and washers.
  6. Adjust for level: Loosen the top hinge nut slightly and screw it in or out to adjust the gate's level as needed.
  7. Tighten securely: Once level, tighten all nuts and bolts firmly but not overly tight, so the gate swings freely without squeaks.
For heavy gates, it is helpful to have someone assist with lifting and positioning the gate during installation.
