Our Rear Eye Double Strap Hinges are incredibly robust and durable! They combine heavy duty construction and strength with easy adjustment while reducing the space required between the gate and post to as little as 1/2". They are ideal for use on heavy gates such as rail gates, driveway entrance gates, dumpster enclosure gates, agricultural gates and the traditional English ‘Five Bar Gate’.
Double Straps not only hang the gate, they strengthen and support the gate. By sandwiching the lumber between the straps the corner of the gate is effectively locked at 90 degrees to prevent sagging and distortion. Strong, Full Lateral Adjustment and only 1/2" between the Gate and the Post. This Hardware Combination has it all!
This hardware is ideal for use with wood gates.

Here are some great pictures from a customer of ours down in Savannah, Georgia of a contemporary wood gate installation. We are pleased that Ernest chose to use our hardware to hang this gate and finish off this beautiful project. Ernest chose to use a combination of 12" (Top) and 5" (Bottom) 8325 Heavy Duty Double Strap Hinges mounted to 8256-34P Mounting Plates with 8" Adjustable Pin. He also used our FP-8256-B Hardware Kits. The gate is secured using the Snug Cottage 6159-B316 Suffolk Gate latch. All of this high quality Snug Cottage Gate Hardware, along with Ernie's craftsmanship, created this heavy duty and reliable wood gate that swings easily and locks securely.
Customer Feedback:
"George. Happy New Year. As I mentioned earlier, I am terrifically impressed with the quality of your hardware, but still reeling from the cost. Nevertheless, I love the results and my gates swing wide open with a light nudge. Hope these photos will inspire others. Your friend and new customer in Savannah, GA. Ernie T."
Thank you so much Eddie! We know that this hardware is more expensive than the 'competitions' but as you attest it is better than the rest. Keep up the great work and enjoy your new outdoor living space - you deserve it!
Here is a great picture from a customer of ours down in Miami, FL that used Snug Cottage Hardware to build and install this homemade gate. Ana chose to use the 18" Heavy Duty Double Strap Hinges, Rear Eye (8325-182), Mounting Plate with 8" Adjustable Hinge (8256-342), and 6-1/2" Carriage Bolts, Nuts and Washers (FP-8256-G). The extra wide double strap hinges fit gates that are 3-1/2" thick which is perfect for building gates using 5/4" boards. The gate looks great and we are pleased to hear how well the hardware worked out for you! Keep up the great work!
