Forever Hinges Keep Gates Swinging

Forever Hinges Keep Gates Swinging FENCING Gates Failed gate hinges were one of the biggest complaints Chris McBurney heard from producers while designing cattle handling facilities and pens So he got busy in his workshop to develop the Forever Hinge     “I thought that if the steel is around the horizontal part of the gate it would be stronger and not fail like strap hinges ” he explains     McBurney’s final patented design has five bolts on the part of the hinge fastened to the gate It works on 1 66-in and 2-in tube gates There are options for how it’s mounted to a post including a long bolt or a lag plate for wood posts or a weld nut for steel posts     With the bolts the heavy-duty hinge can easily be removed and used on another gate The hinge is also hot-dipped galvanized to protect it from rust and weather     McBurney sells the Forever Hinge for $125/pair includes shipping with a 5-year warranty     Customers include small producers feedlot owners and horse owners     “We want everyone to be successful in agriculture ” McBurney says adding his slogan “It’s not for every gate It’s for the ones you want to keep swinging ”     Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Chris McBurney 1494 Campbellsburg Rd New Castle Ky 40050 ph 502-845-1160; Chris@cattleeq com; www foreverhinge com
