VIVIDA 8" J Bolt Gate Hinge 2 Pack, Gate Bolt Hinge with 5/8" Male Pin, Heavy Duty Chain Link Fence Hardware, Galvanized Steel

When you pull these out of the packaging (and, as a side note, they are Very Securely Packaged!) you might think you want your money back. They are not shiny and uniform and pretty. But the price is right. These hinges cost about half of what they go for at Tractor Supply, and they do just as good a job. I bought two packages (16 bolts) and not a single one of them had faulty threads. We used all 16 just fine. They installed perfectly, swing well, and saved us a bundle of money. I would not hesitate to buy them again next time we install livestock gates.

No fuss. No mess. Just a clean purchase of a solid product.

I much prefer the threaded gate hinges over lag bolt hinges to allow leveling of the gate and for future adjustment if the gate begins to sag since I use quick pin latches that need to be perfectly aligned. These hinges are heavy duty and will work. However, the galvanized finish is very rough. You can't spin the nut on most of the threads so you will have to use tools to even get the nut to the fence post. Portions of the nut have clumps of coating so the wrench doesn't fit without using force or sanding. The hinge pin also has rough spots so you will want to sand those so the gate swings smooth, or I'm sure after opening and closing the gate several times it will smooth the hinge pins out. Only time will tell if the galvanized coating will flake off given the clumps and roughness which will cause them to rust. The price for these is comparable to stainless threaded gate hinges, so I will likely go with those in the future.

I had too large of a gap to install magnetic locks on my gate. With these J bolt hinges, I was able to shift gate closer and locks work great. Very easy to install and the quality of these J bolts is good. The galvanized coating makes it rust resistant and matches the finish of the fence post. Good product.

Perfect extension for setting a chain link gate. Opening was just a big larger than the gate. These worked perfect.

We have used these J bolts to go through metal pipes to attach a metal gate to. Our local hardware store ran out of them, so ordered from Amazon.

We've had to build several gates around the property and these work far more superior to standard hinges. They don't sag or squeak and you don't have to worry about screwing a standard hinge where it needs to be.

Good price and they work what else do you want
