The TIMco Brenton Padbolt is an ideal security solution for homeowners and property managers looking to secure flush-mounted gates, shed doors, and exterior outbuildings. Its primary benefit is the combination of a robust 12mm bolt diameter and the ability to accept a padlock, offering a straightforward way to deter unauthorized access. However, users should note that with a corrosion rating of 2, it is best suited for sheltered environments rather than coastal areas or harsh, consistently wet climates.

While the kit includes carriage bolts for timber, it can be adapted for metal with appropriate self-tapping screws or by drilling through-holes, though the included hardware is optimized for wood.
This product has a corrosion rating of 2, meaning it is designed for sheltered or rural environments with minimal exposure to harsh weather.
No, the padbolt is 'padlockable' but the padlock itself must be purchased separately.
You will need a drill with bits for the carriage bolts, a screwdriver for the pan screws, a wrench or socket for the hex nuts, and a mallet for seating the carriage bolts.
This bolt is specifically designed for flush-mounted surfaces. If your gate is recessed, you would need to add a timber block or spacer to create a flush surface.
Check that the bolt and the receiver are perfectly aligned. Adjust the mounting screws slightly to ensure there is no tension pulling the bolt out of its natural path.
Ensure the square shoulder under the head of the carriage bolt is fully seated into the timber by tapping it firmly with a mallet before tightening the nut.
Installation requires basic drilling and screwdriver skills.
Regarding care, because of the corrosion rating of 2, it is recommended to periodically wipe the bolt with a light machine oil if you notice signs of surface oxidation. This is particularly important if the bolt is used in damp, inland rural settings.
