gate hinge

Gate's turning joint

A gate hinge is a hinge designed for mounting gates to posts or frames, typically heavier and more durable than door hinges to withstand outdoor conditions and the weight of gates.

Common types include strap hinges, T-hinges, and self-closing hinges.

The old gate hinge had rusted through and needed replacing.
