A tip to make sure you wooden gates cannot be lifted off their hinges

When fitting band & gudgeon (or hook & band hinges), reverse the top hinge pin to trap your gates in place and ensure they cannot simply be lifted from the hinge pins. We did this video after reading about a spate of metal gate thefts in Denbighshire, please read more on our blog at

You can fit two coach screws diagonally in each one,they won't do it then!

Such a simple concept but I have seen countless gates installed with both pins up. I am always tempted to just take the gate loose and put it their back garden. Better yet i could nick all the gates then sell them back with a proper install
