The AB Tools Swing Gate Long Eye Bolts are essential hardware for homeowners and professionals seeking a reliable, adjustable solution for hanging wooden or metal gates. These 12mm x 100mm bolts provide robust support and long-term durability thanks to their zinc-plated steel construction, which resists corrosion in outdoor environments. While they offer excellent flexibility for leveling gates, users should note that they require precise drilling into gate posts or frames to ensure the 12mm thread fits securely.

Yes, these eye bolts are compatible with both wooden and metal gates, provided there is a suitable 12mm hole for the bolt to pass through.
Yes, they are zinc-plated to provide excellent protection against rust and corrosion, making them suitable for outdoor use.
The bolts feature a standard M12 (12mm) thread with a length of 100mm.
Yes, each pack of 2 bolts includes the necessary nuts for installation.
No, these are specifically designed for use with 12mm gate pins or hooks.
Ensure the nuts are fully loosened before attempting to rotate the eye bolt, then adjust incrementally while using a spirit level.
Verify that your pilot hole was drilled at exactly 12mm; if the wood has rotted, use a wood hardener or relocate the hinge to solid timber.
To install, ensure your gate post is properly reinforced. Drill a 12mm hole through the post or frame to accommodate the bolt thread. Insert the bolt, secure it with the provided nuts, and use a spanner to achieve your desired clearance. Compatibility is limited to 12mm diameter pins or hooks. To maintain the integrity of the zinc plating, avoid using abrasive chemical cleaners. Periodically check the nuts to ensure they remain tight and apply a small amount of exterior-grade lubricant to the eye if you notice any squeaking during gate operation.
