Pivot bars
The anti-lift pivot bar, discreet and effective.
A pivot bar links the gate or door to a fixed point: it takes the lateral loads and stops the leaf from lifting off its hinges. We shape it from steel flat bar, with hinge knuckles welded at the exact spacing of your hardware, for an installation that stays put.
- Flat bar 30 × 8, 30 × 30 or 40 × 40 mm.
- Length set from 1.20 to 3.00 m.
- 2 to 5 hinges welded to spacing.
- Galvanised + powder-coated, raw or corten.

What to know before ordering.
Delivery, fitting, care: the answers the workshop hears most often.
What is a pivot bar for?
It keeps the bottom of the leaf aligned with its hinges and takes wind or twisting loads. On a heavy gate, it prevents hinge sag and lift-off.
How do I choose the flat-bar section?
30 × 8 mm suits a door or pedestrian gate, 30 × 30 mm a gate up to 3 m, 40 × 40 mm beyond that or for heavy use. We confirm at order stage based on leaf weight.
What spacing for the hinges?
We match the spacing of your existing hardware: two hinges for a door, three to five for a gate depending on length. Spacing is measured on site or from a dimensioned drawing.
Can I fit it myself?
The bar is delivered drilled and matched. Fitting needs precise drilling and axial adjustment: we recommend a professional, or we handle it with the fitting option.
