Overview
A 2-pack of 6 inch black T-strap hinges built for shed and gate doors, made from 2mm powder-coated steel rated to carry more than 45 pounds per hinge. Counterbore holes are sized for M4 self-tapping screws so the strap sits flat once mounted.
T-strap hinges mount to the face of the door and frame instead of being mortised in, which suits shed doors, gates and other outbuilding doors where a flush butt hinge is not practical. The listing rates load capacity per hinge rather than per pair, and the counterbore screw holes are meant to keep the surface flat after installation. Rotation is rated up to 270 degrees and the hinge works on either a left or right hand door.
- 6 inch black T-strap hinges, 2 pack
- 2mm thick steel rated over 45 lb per hinge
- Counterbore holes for M4 self-tapping screws
- Up to 270 degree rotation, fits left or right hand doors
Who it's for
Anyone hanging a shed door, garden gate, barn-style door or similar outbuilding opening who needs a visible, heavy-duty strap hinge rather than a concealed one.
Pros and cons
- Rated over 45 pounds load per hinge
- Counterbore holes keep the surface flat after mounting
- Works on left or right hand doors, up to 270 degree rotation
- Mounting screws included
- Only 2 hinges per pack, larger doors will need a second set
- Surface-mounted strap is visible rather than concealed
Performance notes
Because the T-strap mounts on the face of the door rather than being recessed, most of the installation work is drilling for the counterbore screws rather than chiseling a mortise. The black powder coat is described as corrosion and oxidation resistant, which matters more here than on an indoor hinge since these are meant for outbuilding doors exposed to weather.
