The AB Tools 250mm Heavy Duty T Tee Hinges are ideal for DIYers and contractors looking to hang or reinforce doors on garden sheds, small gates, and pet hutches. These hinges provide exceptional structural support and smooth movement for heavy wooden doors, though their surface-mounted design may not be suitable for applications requiring hidden or recessed hardware.

These hinges are primarily designed for wood applications. Using them on heavy metal structures is not recommended.
Yes, each 2-piece set comes complete with the necessary screws for installation.
The powder-coated finish provides good protection, but in very high-salt environments, additional maintenance may be required to prevent corrosion.
The hinge metal thickness is 2mm.
Yes, the T-hinge design is universal and can be installed for either left-hand or right-hand opening doors.
Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or machine oil to the hinge pin.
If the wood is soft, fill the hole with wood glue and wooden dowels, let dry, and re-drill the pilot hole.
Ensure the hinge plate is fastened into solid timber, not just thin cladding, and check that all screws are tightened.
Installation requires only a drill and a screwdriver. Begin by aligning the fixing plate (80mm x 25mm) against the door frame, ensuring the hinge pin is positioned for the desired swing. Use the provided screws to secure the plate. For the door side, ensure the hinge is level before driving the remaining screws. To maintain the hinges, wipe them down with a clean cloth annually. If the hinges are installed in high-salt or high-moisture environments, periodically check for any signs of surface wear and touch up with rust-inhibiting paint if necessary.
