Q. What are the best gate hinges to use?

Answer

When it comes to wooden gates, T-hinges are your best option. These hinges are a hybrid of butt & strap hinges, and they have countersunk holes, making them suitable for use on wooden door frames and doorways. These are most frequently seen on wooden garage doors as well as other types of gates made of wood.Use of butt hinges in conjunction with dummy straps is among the most effective methods for hanging a heavy gate, barn door, or carriage house door. The installation of the butt hinges is quite like the installation of the hinges on the front door; however, in most cases, mortising the hinges is not required. Butt hinges that have been placed in such a manner are able to support significant loads.
