The Timco Strong Tee Hinges are engineered for homeowners and contractors looking for reliable, heavy-duty hardware for gates, sheds, and garage doors. Offering robust support for doors weighing up to 40kg, these 12-inch hinges provide excellent stability and longevity for standard exterior applications. While they feature an epoxy black coating designed for durability in sheltered or occasionally damp environments, it is important to note that fixings are not included, requiring you to source compatible screws for your specific mounting surface.

No, fixings are not included. You will need to purchase gauge 8 screws separately.
These hinges are designed to support a gate weight of up to 40kg.
Yes, but you must install a third hinge to prevent the gate from warping or sagging.
We recommend using a size 8 screw gauge for a secure installation.
These hinges are coated for damp and sheltered environments; however, they may require more frequent maintenance in highly saline, direct-coastal conditions.
The band length is 12 inches (300mm).
Check if the screws are loose or if the gate height exceeds 2130mm, which necessitates adding a third hinge.
Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or light machine oil to the knuckle pivot point.
Clean the affected area gently, remove rust, and touch up with a black metal-specific anti-corrosion paint.
Before installation, ensure your gate width falls between the 600mm and 900mm range. Use high-quality, corrosion-resistant wood screws of gauge 8 to ensure a tight, long-lasting fit into your gate frame. Since fixings are not included, verify the length of your screws to ensure they reach deep into the timber without protruding. For maintenance, periodically check the hinges for signs of wear and apply a light machine oil to the knuckle if you notice any squeaking. While the epoxy coating is protective, avoid using abrasive cleaning pads that could scratch the finish and expose the steel to moisture.
