National Mfg N179-200 10in Black Ornamental T-hinge Heavy Duty

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N179-200 is a 10-inch ornamental T-hinge built for heavy-duty applications where standard hinges fall short. Manufactured from hot-rolled steel with a triple-protected black finish, this hinge is engineered to resist corrosion in exposed outdoor environments. The tight-pin design allows right- or left-hand installation without modification. With a safe working load of 40 pounds, it delivers reliable performance on gates, sheds, and rustic doors where both strength and appearance matter. This hinge ships in a bulk pack of 6 units per package, making it a practical choice for contractors handling multiple doors or gate installations in a single job.

This T-hinge is sized for exterior and semi-exterior applications including residential and light commercial gates, storage shed doors, barn-style doors, and rustic or decorative entryways. The ornamental western design integrates function with a period-appropriate aesthetic, making it suitable for projects where hardware finish and style are part of the specification. The 10-inch leaf length provides the extended surface area needed to distribute load on wider, heavier door panels common in outdoor structures. Licensed contractors, carpenters, and fence installers handling gate or outbuilding work will find this hinge ready for direct installation without additional prep.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters, fence contractors, or general contractors working on gate and outbuilding projects. Ensure the mounting surface is structurally sound and capable of supporting the door weight before fastening. Use fasteners appropriate for the substrate material and confirm the hinge leaf is flush against the door and frame before final tightening. Verify local building codes for any gate or fence hardware requirements that may apply to the project.
