Can you tell me what gate weights the 1/2, 5/8 and 3/4 J-Bolt hinges support?

I looked at the different extensions compatible with the gate system. I played with measurement numbers. For instance, start with the longest extension and add another until you exceed the desired number. Then, consider the other shorter extensions until you get as close to 48.5" as possible. Remember, the system comes with arms at the top and bottom that compensate for about 3" on each side. I hope this helps. Best wishes!

Yes, depending on the weight of the gate and the proper sizing and number of hinges.

Gate is mounted to bracket with hinges. Hinges take approximately 1.5" depending upon how one measures. There is clearly 18" opening through which to pass. Perhaps fudging a bit on space used by hinges would allow one to say there is 18.5" for one to pass. Not this question has been posed again since 2013. Most recent answer was 18" and a caveat was added that a 400 lb person turned sideways passed through gate with no issue.

I installed one on a gate that is about 4'x7' and made out of pine. I imagine it would work on a heavier gate.

panels 5 inches wide yes. 5 inches thick would 1 heavy ass gate. how long is it and what is the support post made of?

Sorry but I do not know that information. If you can send me a photo of your current one -especially the hinge then I can tell you if it is the same. Brian briaddress@yahoo.com

My husband said he'd omit the pin and replace it with a nut and bolt. We have not had anyone do this to our gate, yet! Good luck!

I used one (of three total hinges) on my metal 36: fire door and it works fine. My guess is the doors weight in about 100 lbs.

I have 2 hinges supporting a 48 x 40 inches of 3/4inch thick plywood, don't know how much it weighs but its not light. It handles if fine, very sturdy.

no problem...you can slide the gate and set it at any width...mine is a total of 33.5 inches including hinge,etc...I could easily narrow it by 5 inches or so.

Instructions have a number (800)445-5262 or www.serius-strap.comThe door used to work from is probably going to be the limiting factor for weight

3/8 should work. You only need enough room for the side flange and the screws.

Yep both are there and are strong as a gorilla believe me!! May have to adjust the springs by cutting one of them off to make your gate feel weightless.

51 1/2" is the max for this gate, per the specs. I have one in a 50" opening and have more than an 1 1/2" that I could go larger or smaller, so it should do the trick.

The hinges were made to attach to a 4X4 by screwing it in and hanging gate from it. You might be able to find another way but it might not be easy.

The hinge plate is about 1/8" thick and the hinge pin is 3/8"-7/16" OD I am measuring them in place so it is tough to get more accurate than that.
