Grange Fencing gates and fences

angharad

Hallo I just bought matching Wenlock metal driveway gates, side gates and fences, very nice too except I need 2 drop bolts to properly secure the drive gates on a breezy bend.
Grange will only supply as part of the set 1 drop bolt and 2 brackets to attach onto the pre drilled gate frame. So far I can't find anything that suits for the 'loose' gate.
Any ideas please? At Grange's suggestion, I have looked on line at the usual DIY type retailers, nothing resembles the Grange original. Thank you in advance from an inept DIY-er.

Won't the catch on the 'loose' gate hold that gate firm when the drop bolt on the other gate is down?

In other words, I'm not sure you need two drop bolts.

Difficult to put in words, maybe a picture will help:

Thanks for replying, those are the gates, they had to be set rather high off the ground. I hoped that fitting 2 bolts would hold them more securely.

Hallo again, just a hat tip to Melanie from Click4Garden who was so helpful in trying to sort this out for me. Have a good weekend everybody!
