How to use

To install the DOMAX ZT 100 gate hinge, ensure the gate and the mounting post are properly aligned. Position the hinge at the desired height on the gate frame and mark the screw holes. Pre-drill the holes if necessary to prevent wood splitting or to ensure a secure fit in metal. Secure the hinge firmly using appropriate screws or bolts. Once attached, verify that the gate swings freely and closes securely without obstruction. Periodically check the fasteners to ensure they remain tight over time.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the weight of your gate to ensure it falls within the hinge's load capacity
• Check the dimensions of your gate frame to ensure the 13 cm by 6.5 cm footprint fits correctly
• Ensure you have the appropriate mounting hardware for your specific gate material
• Consider the environmental conditions of your location to determine if additional protective coatings are needed

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and longevity, it is recommended to lubricate the hinge pivot point periodically with a silicone-based or lithium grease. This will prevent squeaking and ensure smooth operation throughout the changing seasons.
