Frequently asked questions
What is a cabin hook?
A cabin hook is a simple door fastening consisting of a hooked bar that engages with a fixed staple or eye. It is used to hold a door, gate or shutter open or back against an adjacent surface. The hook can be lifted out of the staple to release the door. Cabin hooks are commonly used on garden gates, shed doors, stable doors and interior doors.
What is the difference between a cabin hook and a barrel bolt?
