Our Heavy Duty Cranked Strap Hinges are an excellent option for your heavier wood or cellular PVC gates. They are sold in pairs and can used with any of our 3/4” pin selections, such as the Adjustable Hinge Mount with Threaded Pin (#8256), for a versatile way to hang almost any gate. The offset portion allows for installation without the use of a spacer block and the small 'crank' allows for the eye to match with the pin, keeping the gate and post on the same plane and allowing for less space between the gate and the post when installed. Another benefit of this hinge is that all mounting holes are designed to be attached with carriage bolts. Since all mounting points get thru-bolted, you will get a very strong installation with minimal sag/drop.
8305 Series Hinges are available in 12", 18", 24", and 36" lengths and in Black Polyester Powder-coat or Hot Dip Galvanized finishes making them perfect for installing wood gates of all sizes.
Ordering Notes:
The first bolt hole towards the pin side requires a 1/2" carriage bolt, while the remainder are 3/8" (sold separately below)

Heavy Duty Cranked Strap Hinge - Installation Diagram (PDF)
Here are some great pictures from our customer Abel down in Deer Park, Texas, of a very heavy duty gate he built and attached to his dog-ear wood fence, installed on 4x4 steel posts. He used our Snug Cottage wood gate hardware to install this gate, to provide a very secure installation.
The gate is hung using three 18" Heavy Duty Galvanized Cranked Band Hinges (8305-182) paired with Back Plates (8305-BP182), attached to Mounting Plates with 8" Adjustable Pins (8256-342), also using Backing Plates (8256-BP022). Note how the top pin faces down, which keeps the gate from being lifted off the hinges. To latch the gate, Abel used our 15" Slide Bolt (5002-L152). For added security, and to relieve stress on the latch, Abel also installed two stainless steel gate stops (1400-316).
Here are a couple of pictures of a very heavy duty door that our customer built and hung for his new bar/restaurant over in Idaho. Larry chose to use a variety of Snug Cottage Hardware to hinge the door, and he couldn't be more pleased with the results.
The Gate Hinges used are a combination of 8305 Series Heavy Duty Cranked Strap Hinges, 8307 Series Heavy Duty Straight Strap Hinges, and 8256-34P Mounting Plates with 8" Adjustable Pins. All this hardware is finished in a black powder coated polyester which is applied over hot-dip galvanized steel, creating an incredibly durable product.
The project looks great Larry! Good luck with the new restaurant!

Great service and quality products
Ordering was easy. I called and spoke with a very knowledgeable associate. She forwarded me to another person who was kind enough to retrieve an item from stock, and provide the measurements I needed to finish making a decision on which strap hinge to purchase. The hinges are super duty to say the least. They arrived in a single box (heavy), individually wrapped in paper to prevent clanging and scratches during shipment. The hinges I purchased are galvanized steel, so scratches would not have mattered really, but I was completely impressed that someone took such care. Thank you!
Fantastic hinges. Exactly as advertised
The heavy duty hinges and hardware far exceeded my expectations. Stout. Solid, Built to last.
Staff are helpful, product was on point, and delivery exceeded time options.
