Description
The top right-hand L strap hinge for wide timber gates, with a 900mm arm to carry the load along the rail. Its black steel strap runs 900mm along the top rail and 300mm down the hanging stile, 50mm wide throughout. A separate post plate holds an M20 threaded pin, and the pin passes through a bracket at the corner of the strap with a nut and washer either side, so the gate can be moved in or out once it is hung. You get the L strap, the post plate with its pin, two nuts and two washers. This is the top right-hand hinge, which also fits bottom left, so each gate leaf takes one of these and one top left-hand hinge. The price shown is for one hinge.
Why choose this hinge
Built for gates that are wide rather than short. A gate pulls hardest on its top hinge, and the wider it is, the harder it pulls. Five fixing holes spaced 210mm apart spread that pull along 900mm of the top rail.
A corner that stays square. The second arm drops 300mm down the hanging stile and fixes through two holes 200mm apart, so the rail and stile are held together at the joint that usually opens up first on a timber gate.
Set the gate after it is hung. Turn the two nuts on the M20 pin to bring the gate towards the post or away from it. The 35 x 22mm oval hole in the corner bracket leaves some sideways movement too, which helps when you are lining up the latch.
Heavy gate capacity. The manufacturer's rating is 500kg per gate. Your posts and fixings need to be up to the same weight.
Which hand do I need?
Look at the hanging post from the side of the gate where the straps will be fixed. This hinge, the top right hand, goes at the top of a gate hung on the right-hand post, with the plate on the post to the right and the long arm running away to the left. Turned over, the same hinge goes at the bottom of a gate hung on the left-hand post.
| Your gate, seen from the strap side | You need |
|---|---|
| One gate hung on the right-hand post | 1 of this hinge (top) and 1 top left-hand hinge (bottom) |
| One gate hung on the left-hand post | 1 top left-hand hinge (top) and 1 of this hinge (bottom) |
| A pair of gates | 2 of this hinge and 2 top left-hand hinges |
Add the matching M20 900 x 300mm top left-hand hinge to your order. The two hands are identical in size and finish.
Where it is used
Field and paddock gates in timber, livery and stable yard gates, five-bar and boarded driveway gates, and big timber doors on barns, garages and workshops, wherever a longer strap suits the width of the gate.

Fitting and care
Bolt the post plates on first, near the top and bottom of the post, with coach bolts or coach screws to suit the 10.9mm holes. Prop the gate closed on packers at the right height. Put a nut and washer on each pin, feed the pin through the corner bracket of the strap and add the second washer and nut. Fix the long arm along the rail and the short arm down the stile, set the gap at the post, then tighten both nuts against the bracket.
When the gate needs adjusting later, ease one nut, wind the other to move the gate, and lock them again. Each spring check the nuts and fixings and oil the knuckles.
Frequently asked questions
Is the price for one hinge?
Yes, one complete hinge with its strap, post plate, pin, nuts and washers. Each leaf of a gate takes two hinges, one of each hand.
Can I fit two of these on one leaf?
No. Two top right-hand hinges would leave the short arm of the lower strap pointing down off the gate. Fit one of this hinge and one top left-hand hinge on each leaf.
Do I have enough rail for the 900mm arm?
Measure the rail from the hanging end. You need 900mm of straight rail with room for the five fixing holes.
Are fixings supplied?
No. Use coach bolts or coach screws chosen for the 10.9mm holes and your timber.
What weight of gate will it take?
The manufacturer rates it for gates up to 500kg, as long as the posts are strong and properly set.
