National Mfg N348-516 Stainless Steel Cane Bolt 0.5x12 in

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N348-516 is a stainless steel cane bolt measuring 0.5 inches in diameter by 12 inches in length, designed for anchoring one gate panel on double-door and driveway gate installations. The cane bolt drops into a ground sleeve or strike to hold one gate leaf fixed in place while the gate latch controls the second leaf. Fabricated from stainless steel for corrosion resistance, this hardware is suited for heavy wood gates and doors in both residential and light commercial applications. Installation is straightforward for fence contractors, general contractors, and experienced DIYers working on gate hardware.

This cane bolt is intended for use on heavy wood double doors and driveway wood gates where one panel must be independently secured. In a two-panel gate setup, the cane bolt anchors the inactive leaf to the ground or a threshold strike, allowing the active leaf to operate normally against it. The package quantity is 3 units, making it practical for multi-gate projects or replacement hardware needs. The stainless steel construction holds up in outdoor environments exposed to moisture and weathering.

Installation Notes

Cane bolts are typically installed by fence contractors or general contractors familiar with gate hardware. Before installation, confirm the gate panel is properly hung and aligned so the bolt drops cleanly into the ground sleeve or threshold strike. Ensure the receiving hole or sleeve is plumb and clear of debris to allow smooth bolt engagement. Follow all applicable local building codes for gate and fence hardware in residential and commercial settings.
