What is this cane bolt used for?

It is recommended for securing the inactive leaf of an unmotorized Alumission double swing gate by lowering the rod into a compatible ground receiver.

Can I use it on a single swing gate?

The manufacturer supports gate and door applications, but Alumission recommends this 12″ configuration primarily for the inactive leaf of a double swing gate. Confirm compatibility with your specific design before installation.

Are the Black and Silver versions the same size and material?

Yes. Both variations are 1/2″ × 12″ steel cane bolts; only the finish differs.

Which finish should I choose?

Choose Black to coordinate with black powder-coated gate components or Silver for a clean natural-metal appearance.

Do both finishes cost the same?

Yes. Black and Silver are both $45.15.

Where should it be installed?

Install it vertically on the inactive gate leaf near the center meeting edge and align it with a compatible receiver in the ground or concrete.

How does the hold-open position work?

Lift the L-shaped handle and rotate it into the guide bracket’s hold-open position to keep the rod raised.

Can it be installed horizontally?

Yes. The manufacturer supports vertical or horizontal mounting, although vertical installation is recommended for Alumission double swing gates.

Is the hardware weather resistant?

The manufacturer specifies WeatherGuard Protection for the black finish. Inspect outdoor hardware periodically and maintain it as needed for the installation environment.

Can it be used on an automated gate?

This cane bolt is intended for unmotorized operation. For an automated gate, consult a qualified installer to ensure it cannot conflict with the operator or gate travel.
