Hot-dipped galvanised Strong Tee Hinges offer robust support for heavier doors and gates in outdoor environments. The extended, rigid strap spreads load across the door face to minimise sagging, while the deep zinc coating provides long-lasting corrosion resistance. Ideal for sheds, gates, stores and outbuildings where durable, weather-resistant hardware is essential. Supplied in pairs across longer, heavy-duty sizes.

Instructions for Use
- Select hinge length based on door width and weight; larger/heavier leaves need longer straps.
- Offer up, mark fixings and pilot-drill timber to reduce splitting.
- Fix strap to door first, then align and secure the frame leaf; check for free swing and clearance.
Limitations & Precautions
- For very heavy or high-traffic gates, use appropriately rated heavy-duty hinges and coach screws.
- In aggressive coastal environments, additional maintenance or stainless hardware may be required.
- Always use suitable fixings for the substrate and periodically check tightness.
