Hinge Triton 7697 left fixed right gate 40x80 mm D3

Triton 7697 left fixed right gate 40x80 mm D3 is a metal hinge engineered to connect a fixed post to a swinging gate leaf. The hinge provides pivot support and alignment for a right-hand gate leaf when the fixed mounting is on the left side. Its compact 40x80 mm footprint and D3 designation indicate its size and mounting orientation, making it suitable for residential and light commercial gate assemblies where reliable pivoting and straightforward installation are required.

Advantages

This hinge offers stable pivoting and consistent alignment between post and gate leaf, reducing sag and ensuring smooth operation. Constructed from metal for durability, it resists wear from repeated opening and closing cycles. Its defined left-fixed / right-gate configuration simplifies selection for asymmetric installations and minimizes installation errors when mounting a right-hand gate. The compact dimensions make it compatible with common gate frames and posts without requiring extensive modification.

Suitable for

• Residential swing gates with left-side fixed posts and right-side moving leaves
• Light commercial gates where moderate duty and frequent use are expected
• Retrofit projects replacing worn or mismatched hinges on compatible gate frames
• Metal or welded gate constructions with standard 40×80 mm hinge mounting area

Key specifications

• Material: metal construction suitable for gate hardware
• Orientation: left-side fixed mounting, right-side moving leaf
• Footprint dimensions: 40 × 80 mm mounting surface
• Function: pivot hinge for swing gates, D3 designation indicating mounting/orientation type
• Typical applications: residential and light commercial gate assemblies

How to use

Position the fixed leaf of the hinge on the stationary post at the required height, ensuring vertical alignment and level orientation. Attach the fixed side securely to the post using appropriate fasteners for the post material, then mount the moving leaf to the gate frame so the pivot axis allows unobstructed swing. Check alignment and clearances before fully tightening fasteners, then test the gate through its full range of motion to confirm smooth operation and correct closing position. Make adjustments to fastener tightness or hinge position as needed to eliminate binding or sag.

Usage recommendations

Use corrosion-resistant fasteners appropriate to the installation environment, and inspect hinge mounting points periodically. For heavier gates or high-cycle commercial use, verify that the hinge specification and number of hinges are adequate to support the gate weight and expected usage frequency.
