Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Which side of a gate should a pull handle go on?
  Fit the handle on the side of the gate you pull towards you. This is typically the side the gate swings outward from.

• Can you fit pull handles on both sides of a gate?
  Yes. Fitting a handle on each side allows easy operation from both the approach and the return side. Each side requires its own handle.

• Is powder coating weatherproof?
  Powder coating resists moisture, UV exposure, and corrosion. It bonds to the metal surface during a heat-curing process, producing a harder barrier than standard paint.

• What is carbon steel?
  Carbon steel is an alloy of iron and carbon. It is stronger than mild steel and widely used in outdoor hardware where load-bearing strength matters. A protective finish reduces the risk of rust.

• How long does powder coating last outdoors?
  Lifespan depends on conditions and maintenance. Powder-coated hardware can perform well for many years when kept clean and not exposed to physical damage or harsh chemicals.
