What Size Hinges to Use The rule of thumb for determining the size to use is the band should be about one quarter to one third the width of the gate or door. If the gate or door is over six feet high then a third hinge should be utilized (one hinge for every three feet of height) Hinges require that a carriage bolt (preferred) or a lag bolt be utilized on each hinge as shown in the examples displayed on this page. These are not included as the length required will vary with the installation. The use of a hot dipped galvanized bolts or lags is recommended. We suggest finishing the tops with our touch up paint or black spray paint. The Difference! Manufactured with old world design and quality, the Black Polyester Powder Coat is over hot dipped galvanized steel. The coating is not over bare metal or a far inferior electroplate finish like many products in the market. (Carriage Bolts are NOT included as the length required will vary with the installation)
