Using a Gate Stop will ensure your gate stops in the correct position every time. Gate Stops are used to prevent damage from forceful closing (slamming and windblown) of both the latch and hinges in a gate installation. No different than any of the doors in your home, which have the stops built into their trim work, gates also need a stop for the same reasons. The proper use of our Gate Stop will reduce the likelihood of damage to your gate and improve its closing function, giving you worry free operation for years to come.
1400 Stainless Steel Gate Stops are available in two versions, the 1" Standard and 1-1/2" Extra Large, both of which refer to the protrusion of the 'stopping' surface. These stops are also available in a natural brushed stainless steel and black polyester powder-coated finishes, to ensure that there is an option to match your design.
The use of a Gate Stop is a necessity when using a Gate Closer, such as a Gate Spring or Cannonball Gate Closer.

Gate Stop Installation Guide (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 great photographs from our customer Richard over in Tiburon, CA, of a very nice wooden privacy gate that he built and hung using our Nationwide Industries Blunt T-Hinges (NW6172-BK) and secured using the Snug Cottage Hardware Contemporary Styled Ring Latch and Gate Stop in Black (6149-l6SP & 1400-BSS). The gate, hardware, fence, and photo's are wonderful Richard - thank you so much!
