These work as advertised. Built well, and was a fairly easy install. Too soon to know how these will weather. I coated the unpainted parts, bearings, axles, etc... with a light grease to help ward off rust.Our drive is sloped. There is about a 2" drop in the six foot length of the gate when opened. It takes up the full vertical travel of the wheel and it does not touch the concrete when the gate is opened... so the wheel locking is kind of worthless for holding the gate open. I have some 1/4" thick aluminum and I think I will glue or bolt a small 4"x4" pad to the concrete where the wheel rests when the gate is opened. This will give the wheel something to grip when the lock is engaged.

Average quality. Looks decent but not as heavy duty as was expected. Wheel retained only by an internal spring clip that will eventually rust releasing the wheel. Finish is nice.

Difficult to install and wheel broke off after 18 months! Does not roll well on gravel or uneven terrain.

Worked like a charm. We have a 3' picket fence dividing our driveway and walkway with a 4' long gate that was sagging. The springs help navigate the uneven grade on the driveway and the caster provides much needed support for that end of the gate.I would not recommend this for unpaved terrain. The caster is a pretty standard hard plastic material and I imagine it would get gunked up with dirt/mud quite easily, but for paved/hard surfaces it works fine.As others here have mentioned, it doesn't come with instructions, but it's pretty intuitive. Latch your gate shut and place the bracket against the gate so the wheel is resting on the ground, then mark your holes about 1/4" below that spot to account for the "give" of the spring.

Over the years the weight of our wooden gate has worn the hinges, caused the gate to sag, and the latch to not line up. Tried to add new hinges to reinforce, but they were not an exact match, so the pivot points didn’t match up. This gate wheel was exactly what I needed. The spring loaded shaft allows for support throughout the gate swing even bringing the latch in alignment. Super easy to install and such a simple and cost effective fix.

Well built, but the shaft could be a little longer for gates that traverse an unlevel surface. Regardless, the wheel, installed with a little vertical tension, prevents the gate from sagging. very satisfied.

Ürün çok sağlam, Türkiye’de üretende satan da yok çünkü bizde hep sürme kapı. 2,5 mt lik 2 adet bahçe kapısı için aldım. Kapılar ortalama 40 kg. Kutudan bağlantı civataları da çıkıyor. İhtiyaca cevap verecek kalitede. Yayın çalışması için kapı ağırlığına dikkat edin. Hafif kapılarda yay sert kalabilir

Excellent gate support wheel. My gate now lifts into perfect latch position without me having to pull it upwards. Most gates will sag eventually and this wheel solves the problem once and for all. The bracket is very heavy duty and the provided bolts are long enough to pass through a 4 by 4. The (5 inch) wheel swivels easily on the caster bearing but you must provide a firm surface for it to roll on. In the dirt, it tends to dig in and stop sideways when it changes direction. I solved that problem by placing staggered ceramic tiles as a 'track' for the tire to roll on. Now my gate opens and closes as smooth as silk. This is the 250-Pound rated caster because you can never have too much capacity. The spring will only use what it needs, according to how high you mount it above the ground or floor. I mounted mine with a C-clamp to test the gate lift until I got it 'just right', which - for me - is at the center of the caster up-down range. Then I mounted the 'carrier' 2-by-4 to the gate with several 3-inch long screws.
