Answer This Question

A:  Yes

by|Nov 11, 2020

A:  Mine did not come with a tube. I used a 3/4" steel pipe in cement to hold the rod in place.

A:  Yes, this Cane Bolt does include the in-ground tube.

    A:  Yes, mine came with a tube. The inner diameter of my black-painted tube is 3/4" to accept the cane, which has an outer diameter of 5/8". The included tube is 2.5" long, so it goes 2.5" deep into the ground.

    Q:Has anyone found a padlock to fit this?
    by|Oct 3, 2019

    Answer This Question

    A:  We use a Master brand for ours

    by|Nov 14, 2020

    A:  Just about any padlock would work. Find the hardware area of the store and there will be a full rack of locks that will work. I like the big packs of locks all keyed alike--the same key works for all my trailer locks (tongue, side door, back door) and this cane, so when pulling the trailer through the gate (the only reason we need the wide gate) I have the key with me. My locks are Master brand.

    A:  You would need to find a padlock that fits a 0.85 inch diameter hole.

        A:  With the appropriate fasteners, this cane bolt can be installed on a PVC gate.

          A:  Yes, this works in a PVC gate as long as it has a sturdy mounting location. Is your PVC gate a white PVC sleeve over a 4x4 wooden or aluminum post? Get the appropriate screws and you're all set.

          A:  Yes

          by|May 5, 2023

            A:  If it's hollow, I'd say no. If it's light aluminum, I'd say no. Best in wood

            by|Mar 2, 2019
            1 found this answer helpful

            A:  Yes, the only concern is corrosion between the two different metals. If your aluminum gate is painted where this mounts, then you're all set. If not, use a neoprene tape to insulate the two metals from one another, and use carbon steel screws that are coated. These are a bit over the top, and the corrosion if this is used as-is will likely take quite some time. But, if you're building it to last and last and last for your great-grandkids, check into a trailer shop and they'll get you the fasteners you'll need to join steel to aluminum. Or just paint the aluminum where you're mounting the steel plates.

            Sturdy, functional and nicely finished, this cane bolt does the job. I like that this one will take any size padlock, and when unlocked, the padlock can just get locked back on to the loop so the lock doesn’t get knocked off. With excited kids and curious animals, not having to find the lock in the dirt is a good thing. The stop plate up top is great for keeping the cane where it should be. Our other style cane lock does not have a stop plate, so the cane wanders off from time to time, or at least it did until I made a stop plate for it—this already has a sturdy stop plate that doubles as a way to hold the cane up when the gate is open. Many have asked if this can be used on a metal gate, a PVC gate, aluminum, etc. Yes, it can work on anything that opens or closes, just switch out the mounting hardware for your application. Most PVC gates are sleeved wood or aluminum, so determine which you have, purchase the appropriate hardware, and you're in good shape. A friend used these to pin down sets for high school theater productions--he obviously didn't care that it locked, but he liked the simple, "captured" design since the cane could not be removed and lost in the dark as a set rolls out in between scenes. Glow in the dark paint for the bottom few inches to easily see it but disappears when dropped in the hole. He used almost entirely wood, but it sure was a different use that I hadn't thought of.

            The Everbilt Heavy Duty Lockable Cane Bolt fits in perfectly within our environment. A Ranch filled with tuneless double gates it seems has a demand for Cane Bolts. Most generally we utilize one side of a double gate yet, need the double for passing through large equipment. These Cane Bolts are nice. Now the Everbilt brand 18” part# 568 975 is heavy duty and carries style as well. Super simple installation with provided screws and basic instructions this Cane Bolt will be appreciated from the get-go. Two thumbs up!

            What a cane bolt! Rod is 5/8" thick and the rest of the metal, guides, lock hasp and brackets are heavy metal with an excellent finish on them. It can be mounted horizontally or vertically. It has two guides where most only have one. Has a heavy hasp built on for locking if you need to secure your gate. It comes with everything needed, even a bolt guide to put into the ground for the rod to drop into. Great quality heavy duty item.

            This Everbilt 18" heavy duty lockable cane bolt is just that, heavy duty. Made with thick heavy steel, I was amazed. High quality material and everything you need to install it comes in the package, hardware, 2 guides, 1 stop plate and the cane and staple for putting your own lock on. We got this one to replace an older one we had one and the superior quality of this one is evident. No worries with my gate now. This item was made in China.

            Very solid, excellent black finish. Surprisingly easy to install. I thought adjusting so that the cane would drop freely might be a pain, but it wasn't at all. I mounted to a fairly light garden fence gate and have it set to lock or hold open. My fence lumber is only 3/4" so had to substitute shorter screws than were included but that was no issue at all. The included screws will be fine for 1 1/2" or greater lumber. Includes one tube to sink in the ground for the cane to drop into. Can be used for vertical or horizontal applications with no modification or any extra parts needed. Should last for a lifetime.

            For the cost very impressed. I am using it on a job site for a temporary door and it is in constant use and is holding up great it also came with decent quality screws.

              Easy to install. Secures the gate. My only complaint is that it does not provide a pipe to put the rod in the ground. Let me explain. My contractor bought a pipe with a cap on the end. He pounded it into the ground and that became the receptacle that the cane goes into in the ground. The Instructions state drill a hole in the ground. A hole will eventually fill in.
