Strap Hinges and Pins for Carpentry and DIY

Strap hinges and pins are the elements used to mount and swing doors, large gates, shutters and hatches. This collection brings together the strap hinges, pins and fixing accessories most commonly used in metalwork, joinery and DIY.

What you will find in the collection

• Strap hinges: straight or shaped, galvanised or black, for doors and large gates.
• T and double-T strap hinges, including lift-off versions, in rustic and "arte povera" style.
• Pintles and pins: galvanised or black, with build-in or screw fixing.
• Perforated straps and fabric straps, useful for fixing and supporting.
• Accessories: latches, split pins and other small fixing elements.

How to choose

The choice depends on the weight of the leaf and the substrate it is fixed to: masonry, wood or metal. Heavy gates need long, sturdy strap hinges, while small models are enough for light doors. Check the finish against the environment: galvanising is suited to outdoor use, whereas black and antique-finish models need a little maintenance. Make sure the pin is compatible with the strap hinge in both diameter and length.
