It's the little things that matter.
As with most things, the difference between poor quality and
excellent quality in gate hardware usually comes down to the little
things.
Like metal-to-metal contact. If your
hinge or latch depends on two pieces of metal rubbing against one
another, sooner or later it is going to cause wear damage and early
failure. Modern Fence Technologies uses polymer technology to
cushion the places where metal surfaces could rub together with
bearings and washers that keep the joint moving smoothly for years.
Or, like packaging. Most imported
hardware comes sealed in bulk plastic bags, with pieces rubbing and
colliding during shipping and handling. MFT uses proprietary
packaging to hold each piece securely to ensure the integrity of the
powder coat finish. Even the screws are sealed tightly to prevent
damage to components or coatings.
Another detail that is often missed
is internal quality. Every single hinge pin on every single hinge we
make is machined from stainless steel right here in the U.S. Many
hinges sold in America have plastic hinge pins. Imagine the weight
and torque of your gate riding on a plastic pin.
One more “little thing” that
Modern Fence Technologies provides is peace of mind. Companies that
use Modern Fence Technologies hardware are covered by manufacturers
liability insurance. Our hardware carries a lifetime warranty.
We've been here for over 40 years and we're still growing.
Because at MFT, the “little things”
are important.
