Q: Hello, I am trying to find an outdoor rated hinge that will allow a wood fence gate that is 3 feet wide swing open in either direction, like an old style saloon door. I would like to know what options you have available for this design. For the videos you have listed on youtube, I see the Double Acting SpringThank you for your time, Mike

Q: I'm putting a single gate door on my fence and want it to swing both ways, my frame is a 2×4 and the door will weigh approx 40lbs. Can you recommend a hinge?
A: Is this an exterior application or an interior application? If this is exterior do you want stainless steel components or do you want something standard? Assuming your gate 1-1/2” thick and you're doing something either interior or exterior you may want to consider the

Is it is reasonably priced and will handle the weight and thickness of the gate.
We can indeed sell you the same concept as a stainless steel base material but expect the price to go up by a factor of 4. This hinge would be the JDA-180-38S, DOUBLE ACTION SPRING HINGE 5-1/4" W SS
