FAQs

Does this product come with screws?

No, the TIMco Brenton Padbolt does not include fixing screws.

What is the maximum padlock shackle size I can use?

This bolt accommodates padlock shackles with a maximum diameter of 12mm.

Can this be used on metal gates?

It is primarily designed for wooden structures; installing on metal may require self-tapping screws and drilling into the metal frame.

What is the length of the bolt?

The bolt length is 100mm, which is equivalent to 4 inches.

Is the black finish suitable for coastal areas?

The epoxy finish provides good protection, but in very high-salt coastal environments, regular maintenance or a marine-grade stainless steel alternative may be required.

Troubleshooting

Bolt does not slide smoothly into the keep

Check that the plate and the keep are perfectly aligned. You may need to adjust the positioning or deepen the keep hole slightly.

Bolt feels loose on the door surface

Ensure all 6 screws are tightened firmly. If the wood is soft, consider using slightly longer or thicker screws to reach more solid timber.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable epoxy black finish prevents rust in outdoor use
  • Sturdy 12mm bolt diameter offers high resistance to force
  • Accommodates thick padlock shackles up to 12mm
  • Six-hole plate design ensures a secure, high-tension fit

Cons

  • Fixings (screws) are not included in the kit
  • Not suitable for heavy-duty commercial security high-theft areas
  • Requires specific alignment for the throw to engage smoothly

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires basic hand tools: a drill, drill bits, a screwdriver, and six suitable wood screws (not included).

  1. Positioning: Align the bolt plate on the door and the keep on the frame while the door is in the closed position.
  2. Marking: Use a pencil to mark the six screw holes through the plate.
  3. Pilot Holes: Drill pilot holes slightly smaller than your screw diameter to prevent the wood from splitting.
  4. Attachment: Secure the plate and keep using the appropriate screws for your substrate.

To maintain the bolt, periodically check for debris in the keep and apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the bolt shaft if the movement becomes stiff. Because the finish is a coating, avoid using abrasive metal cleaners which might scratch the epoxy layer.
