National Mfg N177-188 Adjustable Cane Bolt 0.5x18 Black

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N177-188 is an adjustable throw cane bolt designed for securing heavy wood gates and doors. Measuring 0.5 inches in diameter and 18 inches in length with a black finish, this cane bolt anchors one gate in place while the gate latch acts as a stop for the other gate in a double-gate setup. The variable bolt throw allows the holder to store the bolt in the open position and prevent its removal. Licensed contractors and fence installers working on residential or commercial gate systems will find this hardware suited to demanding field applications.

This cane bolt is intended for use on heavy wood gates, double doors, and driveway wood gates. It supports both vertical and horizontal installation orientations, giving installers flexibility based on gate configuration and site conditions. Gate retention in both the closed and open positions is achieved by using two sockets. Pipe of 0.5 inches or 0.75 inches is recommended for use with the sockets but is not included. This product is sold in a pack of 5 units.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by fence contractors or general contractors familiar with gate hardware.

Verify bolt alignment with ground sockets before final tightening to ensure smooth throw operation in both vertical and horizontal positions.
