Heavy duty cross pattern door bolt for securing large timber garage doors, gates, shed doors and similar heavy-duty applications.

Fitted horizontally and designed to provide a strong, secure fixing, with provision for a padlock for added security.

Manufactured in a galvanised finish for exterior use and available in 12″ / 300mm, 18″ / 450mm and 24″ / 600mm lengths.

Which ironmongery finish?

Marine grade stainless steel -

Unlike coated steel, the corrosion resistance comes from the stainless steel itself, so there is no coating to chip, peel or wear away. One of the most durable options for outdoor ironmongery.

Ideal for coastal environments and for use on acidic timbers such as Accoya, Oak, Western Red Cedar & Iroko.

Appearance silvery-grey in colour.

Black on galvanised - 

This finish combines two protection systems into one: the steel hinge is first hot-dip galvanised, then a black polyester or epoxy powder coat is baked over the zinc layer. One coating fights corrosion chemically, the other shields it physically. 

The idea is simple. Galvanising handles the long battle with weather, while the powder coat provides appearance and extra shielding.

Galvanised - 

Hot spelter galvanising, often shortened to hot-dip galvanised or simply HDG, is one of the oldest and most trusted protective finishes used on steel ironmongery. Instead of sitting on the surface like paint or lacquer, it becomes part of the metal itself. 

Appearance wise a silvery grey colour and can be quite a rustic looking finish.

Black powder coated - 

An epoxy black finish is created by applying an electrostatically charged dry powder to bare self-colour steel and then baking it in an oven. The heat melts the powder into a continuous skin that wraps the metal in a uniform protective layer.

Unlike the "black on galv" finish, if the coating becomes scratched then the bare metal can rust.

Bright Zinc Plated -

Bright zinc plating, often called BZP or electro-galvanising (E-Galv), is created by passing an electrical current through a chemical bath that deposits a very thin layer of zinc onto steel. Unlike hot-dip galvanising, no molten metal and no alloy layers are involved. The coating is precise, controlled and smooth.

Appearance wise it's a shiny silvery-grey.

Self Colour - 

Self colour steel is exactly what leaves the mill or the fabricator. No plating, no paint, no galvanising. Just bare carbon steel with its natural mill scale and workshop character intact. Usually used for fabrication (i.e. welding) where the finished item will be sprayed or painted upon completion.

Description

Heavy Duty Cross Pattern Door Bolt

A strong, heavy duty cross pattern door bolt designed for securing large timber garage doors, gates, shed doors and other substantial timber doors.

These bolts are fitted horizontally to the face of the door and provide a much more substantial fixing than a standard light-duty surface bolt. The wide cross pattern body gives a large fixing area against the timber, helping to spread the load and provide a solid installation.

They are particularly well suited to pairs of timber garage doors and larger gates where a strong, simple and reliable method of securing the door is required.

The bolt can also be secured with a padlock, giving an extra level of security where required.

The main body is designed to take strong through fixings such as carriage bolts, making it a good choice where security and durability are more important than appearance alone.

Manufactured in a galvanised finish for good resistance to the weather and suitable for exterior use.

Available Sizes

Available in:

  • 12″ / 300mm
  • 18″ / 450mm
  • 24″ / 600mm

The larger sizes are particularly useful on bigger or heavier timber doors where a longer fixing body helps spread the load over a greater area.

Key Features

  • Heavy duty cross pattern construction
  • Fits horizontally to the face of the door
  • Suitable for timber garage doors, gates and large shed doors
  • Padlockable for added security
  • Wide fixing area for a strong installation
  • Suitable for carriage bolt fixing
  • Galvanised finish for exterior use
  • Available in 12″, 18″ and 24″ lengths

A proper heavy duty bolt for larger timber doors and gates where a standard surface bolt would simply be too light for the job.

If looking for a bolt to fit vertically on a gate or door then consider either our garage door dropbolts or our bow handle bolts.
