**★★★★★ — Robert Kum, March 2017**

> Exceptional service from Renee at Abbey Trading.  I was looking for a gate latch from Gatemate that they distributed.  Renee was informative and returned emails throughout the day to get the order out.

**Comment from ABBEY HARDWARE:**

> Thank you for your review Robert. Always glad to help!

**★★★★★ — c104low, May 2016**

> I recently had a Gatemate lock installed on my gate. When it failed after a month, i thought it might have been forced during a break-in attempt, but saw no damage to the outside of the lock, so I concluded that it must have been faulty. I emailed Abbey trading, the supplier of the lock, and they responded right away. Within 2 days, i was contacted by an Abbey Trading rep who came the following week and replaced the lock with a new one at no charge. In the process he discovered that the lock had indeed been forced, the pins were jammed, but went ahead with the replacement even though the lock was not at fault. Everyone I dealt with was courteous and helpful, I must say that I was stunned by their response and their willingness to stand behind their product. I would not hesitate to recommend Abbey and Gatemate locks to anyone.

> This is to inform and thank you for the remaining items of the order, which arrived intact.  As I mentioned, should the shipper prove honest and forward the missing shipment portion I will pay for the duplicate items.  Your assistance in this fiasco was very professional and appreciated.  I look forward to a continuing business relationship.

> Love the  316 Stainless Steel hardware. Not super cheap, but worth it for the quality. Can be ordered online, just google GATEMATE.

**★★★★★ — User, March 2015**

> I hate to give out one of our secrets, but Abbey Trading hardware makes our sheds look very good. Their heavy duty hinges hold up our solid wood shed doors leaving us with no concerns about sagging. We also love their deadbolts and other hardware, knowing that they are well built and durable.

## Community Q&A

**Q: How much weight can these support each?** *(in Product Questions)*

A: The weight rating for these hinges is approximately 70 lbs. per hinge.

**Q: Can you help me with more specific meassurements** *(in Product Questions)*

I need to rep,ace push door bell buttons but I need to be able to use o e with plate that would allow us to use same holes already in tbe bruck.  The one brass set that was there before has a 4” dustance from middle od o e hole to the other.  Can you please help me by telling me which of those you have would present such requirement?   Thanks!

A: Hello!
The distance between the 2 screw holes on this item is 3 1/2 in.
Thank you.

**Q: Is this a lift off hinge and how much weight can it hold?** *(in Product Questions)*

A: Yes this is a lift off hinge. 
The weight rating for this item is about 70 lbs. per hinge.

**Q: will these support a 60-70 lb door** *(in Product Questions)*

i will be using 3 of them

A: The weight rating for the 12&quot; cranked band and hooks is about 40 lbs. each hinge so this will work fine. You probably only need 2 hinges really or you could go down to the 8&quot;.

**Q: BS title is misleading!** *(in Product Questions)*

Says twisted ring but doesn’t come with any rings! Ordered this and when checking to see if it had dimensions listed found at the bottom of the description that it doesn’t include rings which are sold separate for an addition ~$40.

A: Hello, we are sorry for the misunderstanding. This product comes with everything that is pictured, plus fasteners. It does in fact come with rings. We will have the description adjusted. It is a mistake in the description.

**Q: 42895010 product ID** *(in Product Questions)*

I am interested in this lock but I can not tell based on the photo provided if it locks with a key from both sides.

A: The double cylinder indicates that this is locked from both sides
