Our Double Strap Hinges with Central Eye Hardware Sets come complete with all the hardware required for a central mount/between post mount application. This set provides for heavy duty construction and maximum strength with easy adjustment. Double straps and pins are our best hardware combination for larger field gates, rail gates and entrance gates.

These hinges are typically used for between post installations requires a 5" allowance between the gate and post for installation.

We offer these kits, in three sizes (12", 18", and 24") and two finishes (Hot Dip Galvanized and BPPCG).

  • Ideally used for heavy gates, such as rail gates, driveway entrance gates, dumpster enclosure gates, agricultural gates and the traditional English ‘Five Bar Gate’.
  • Double strap hinges sandwich the gate between the straps, virtually locking the corner square at 90 degrees. This helps to prevent the gate from sagging.
  • The "S" sets include our 8801 - 12" fully threaded adjustable pins which are typically used for installations centered between 2 posts. A 4-1/2" to 5" space is required between the gate and post.

8312 Heavy Duty Double Strap Hinges - Hung Between the Posts

Hung Between the Posts

Gates hung between the posts can be hung on either a square or round post. Allow for a 5" space between the gate and the post (on hinge side) so that there is enough room for adjustment when it is necessary. The commonest pin used for this type of installation is the full threaded with nut and washer on either side of the post (#8800). Do not forget to leave the space at the other end of the gate to accommodate the kind of latch that is being used.

Customer Photo - DIY Maine Board Gate Installed With Snug Cottage Wood Gate Hardware

Here are a couple of pictures from our customer Doug out in Pagosa Springs, Colorado, who built a single Maine Board Gate along with a set of Double Gates using our DIY Wood Gate Plans. He installed these wire backed gates using a variety of Snug Cottage Gate Hardware. For hinges Doug chose the 12" Double Strap Central Eye Hardware Sets (8312-S122) and to latch the gates he used the Stainless Contemporary Cabin Hook (6270-06316) on the single, and a 15" Cane Bolt (5000-152) on the double.

Customer Comments:
