Band & Hook Hinges for Timber Gates
Browse band and hook hinges at Clarke Fencing for timber gates and external doors requiring this style of support. A long band fixes across the gate and pivots on a hook attached to the supporting post or frame.
Our range includes straight, cranked and adjustable sets, alongside separate hooks on plates for compatible fittings. Different hinge lengths and finishes provide options for a range of gate constructions and mounting positions.
Choosing Your Hook & Band Hinges
Compare the gate’s width, weight and structural rail positions with the hinge specification. The band and hook arrangement determines how the gate sits relative to its post, so check the mounting geometry and required clearance.
Adjustable sets allow the gate’s alignment to be altered within the fitting’s adjustment range. This can help during installation and when small adjustments are needed later.
Complete the installation with suitable gate posts and garden gate latches.
Band & Hook Hinge FAQs
What is the difference between straight and cranked bands?
A cranked band incorporates an offset, while a straight band has a flat strap arrangement. This changes the mounting geometry, so compare the product drawing with your gate and post positions.
Can I replace a hook on plate separately?
Separate hooks are available. Match the pin diameter and mounting dimensions to the existing band and check the condition of both components.
Will adjustable hinges repair a sagging gate?
They can correct alignment within their adjustment range. A damaged frame, loose fixings or moving post needs its underlying fault addressed as well.
