Abstract
An anti-lift/anti-twist hinge which includes a bracket having a wall and a pair of spaced converging flanges. The flanges have aligned openings therein for accommodating a hinge pin. The hinge bracket is attached to a gate and prevents the upward rooted or rubbed shifting of the gate and bracket by the interfering fit between the pin and bracket. When tightened against the gate the bracket flattens a side wall of the supporting gate tube to prevent twisting of the bracket relative to the tube.
