These hot-dipped galvanized steel strap hinges with black powdercoat shine on a new gate in sunny central California!
Not easily seen because of the greenery to the right, but no less important to the gate’s operation is a stainless steel gate stop.
Gate stops are included in all of our packages – and for good reason! You can read more about them in this blog post (and parts 2 and 3), but in short, your latch-arm and catch are meant to latch the gate, not stop it. A gate stop will stop it – and will protect your hardware from damage caused by a gate slamming shut (not to mention, keep your warranty valid).
