Abstract: This disclosure relates to a motor vehicle with a locator device configured to maintain outer body panel alignment, and a corresponding method. In particular, an example method includes temporarily attaching a locator device to one of a body of a motor vehicle and an outer body panel connectable to the body. The method further includes connecting the outer body panel to the body, and rigidly connecting the locator device to the other of the body and the outer body panel.

Abstract: An example hinge assembly includes a movable insert that supports a gate. The insert includes a bearing assembly that is movable relative to support structure to provide for alignment and adjustment of the gate structure. An adaptor is supported by the bearing assembly and provides for attachment of a gate component. The adaptor may be configured to insert within a hollow interior portion of a plastic or vinyl fence component. The adaptor may also include features for mounting traditional materials such as wood or steel.

Abstract: An adjustable and reversible pillar includes a reversible substantially rectangular parallelepiped pillar housing resting on a base. The first and second ends have corresponding first and second mounting flanges extending therearound. The housing is hollow. The mounting flanges each extend inwardly of the walls and into the cavity. Either of the first or seconds ends is adapted for mounting on the base. At least one of the housing walls is selectively removable. At least the upper surface of the base is sized to mate with the first or second ends of the pillar housing by mounting of the corresponding first or second mounting flanges onto the upper surface of base. Vertically adjustable feet are mounted to the lower surface of the base.

Abstract: A hinge comprising door/gate horizontal and vertical displacement portions. The adjustment means is comprised of a threaded post for varying the distance between hinge portions in the vertical therein raising or lowering the attached door/gate and perpendicularly extending horizontal threaded post having re-positional door/gate abutment that can be used to change the tilt of the door/gate by varying the length difference of the abutments on the spaced apart hinges.

Abstract: A pipe gate hinge comprises a substantially U-shaped bracket, at least one pipe attachment member, and at least two post attachment members. The bracket has a first longitudinally extending leg with the distal end portion angled in the first transverse direction relative to a longitudinal axis and a second longitudinally extending leg with the distal end portion angled in the second transverse direction relative to the longitudinal axis. At least one pipe attachment aperture is in the first leg and one pipe attachment aperture is in the second leg. At least one post attachment aperture is proximate the distal end portion of the first leg and at least one post attachment aperture is proximate the distal end portion of the second leg. At least one pipe attachment member is configured and arranged to be inserted through the pipe attachment apertures to secure the bracket to a vertically extending member of a pipe gate.

Abstract: There is described a hinge element (16), (18) for pivotally mounting a gate (14) to a fence post (12) comprising: a plurality of rods (20), (30) configured to pass at least partially through the post (12) so as to be securable thereto. A mounting member (21), (32) is attachable to an end of one or more of the rods (20), (30) so as to project beyond the post (12). The mounting member (21), (32) being configured to engage with the gate (14) so as to secure the gate (14) with respect to the post (12). One or more plates (26), (34) is slidingly receivable on the rods (20), (30) and positionable so as to abut with a surface of the post (12) when the rods (20), (30) are secured to the post (12).

Abstract: A sliding assembly for a transversal sliding door comprises a positioning unit and a sliding device. One end of the positioning unit serves to assemble with a doorplate; and another end thereof serves to assemble with the sliding device. The sliding device includes a retaining portion and a rolling portion. The rolling portion includes a first combining portion, a second combining portion, a wheel shaft and a contact unit. The first combining portion and the second combining portion serve to clamp the wheel shaft and the contact unit. The contact unit is positioned at an outer side of the wheel shaft; and the wheel shaft is pivoted to the retaining seat. Thereby when the doorplate is pushed, the contact unit will suffer from a force so that the rolling portion will pivotally rotate with respect to the retaining portion so that the doorplate can move transversally.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a gate stabilizer for reducing sag-inducing stress on a gate comprising a support member and a stabilizer assembly, said stabilizer assembly including a rotating member having a first end portion adapted to engage said support member and a fixed member. The present invention further relates to a fence system incorporating said gate stabilizer.

Abstract: A system and method for installing an elevator door hatchway opening. The system comprises a steel square comprising a top piece, a bottom piece and left and right jambs, a door buck that is bolted to the steel square and at least one exterior hatchway door that is installed on a center portion of the steel square. The steel square is attached by at least one swing lock hinge to at least one elevator shaft way bracket while the steel square is angled outside of an elevator shaft way.

Abstract: This is a device, which will allow a gate to be closed or open or set in a position to provide a means of ingress and egress to a particular facility. This would include warehouses, maintenance yards, farms and any sort of delivery facilities and other industrial sites.

Abstract: The disclosed device is directed toward a lifting gate. The lifting gate comprises a barrier member having a top and a bottom opposite thereof. A top bracket assembly is coupled to the top of the barrier member. The top bracket assembly includes a top bearing coupled to a top bracket and a top hinge support coupled to the top bearing. A bottom bracket is coupled to the bottom of the barrier member. The bottom bracket has a body defined by a first bracket end and a second bracket end and a central bracket portion between said first and second bracket ends. The bottom bracket is coupled to the bottom of the barrier member proximate to the first bracket end. A bottom bearing is coupled to the bottom bracket proximate to the central bracket portion. A bottom hinge support has a first support end and a second support end opposite thereof and has a central support portion between the first and second support ends. The bottom hinge support is coupled to the bottom bearing proximate the central support portion.

Abstract: A self-closing safety gate hinge comprises a bracket, a bottom seat, a top seat and a hinge pin. The bracket is attached to a top of a gate post. The bottom seat is attached to one side of the bracket and an inclined top surface is cambered on the bottom seat. A through hole is defined vertically through the bottom seat. The top seat has an inclined bottom surface corresponding to the inclined top surface and is attached to one side of a gate at top. A stepped through hole is defined vertically through the top seat. The hinge pin is mounted through a spring and the through holes and is held in place by a C-clip.
