Description
A 180 degree hinge set for gates that open onto rising ground. The eccentric bottom hinge lifts the gate as it swings, so the bottom rail clears a drive or path that climbs inside the gate, from a gentle 2% up to a steep 35% depending on how far apart the hinges are set. The top hinge is a 4-way adjustable eyebolt hinge, so the gate can be set square after hanging. Hot-dip galvanised with stainless steel parts, for left or right hand gates up to 75kg. The price is for the complete set of two hinges.
Why choose this hinge set
Opens over rising ground. Instead of cutting the gate short or digging out the drive, the eccentric hinge raises the gate as it opens so it clears the slope.
Opens to 180 degrees. The gate can swing right back against the fence.
Adjustable after hanging. The top hinge adjusts in and out, sideways and up and down, and the set works on left or right hand gates.
Made to pair with a gate closer. A hydraulic gate closer is recommended for a controlled, gentle close.
Built to last outdoors. Hot-dip galvanised steel with stainless steel working parts.
Where it is used
Pedestrian gates on sloping drives and paths, school, park and business entrances on rising ground, and replacement hinges for gates that scrape the ground as they open.

Fitting
Fit the eccentric hinge at the bottom of the gate and the adjustable hinge at the top, following the measurements on the drawing and the instructions supplied. The steeper the ground, the further apart the hinges need to be. Hang the gate, set it square with the top hinge, then fit a hydraulic gate closer so it closes gently. Grind the coating off where you weld and paint the welds with zinc-rich primer.
Care
Check the fixings and the closer each spring and keep the bottom hinge clear of soil and leaves.
