What hardware accessories are commonly used for outdoor trash cans?

Common accessories for outdoor trash cans include hinges, latches, expansion bolts, locks with lock plates, and inner buckets.

1. Hinges

Hinges are commonly used to connect the trash can door. The hinge pin material can be galvanized or stainless steel. LVEN's standard hinge is made of stainless steel.

2. Latches

Latches are used to install and fix the trash can door panel.

3. Expansion bolts

Expansion bolts are commonly used. They come in galvanized and stainless steel types, and are further divided into internal expansion and external expansion bolts. LVEN's standard specifications are M8*70 expansion bolts made of 201 stainless steel and M8*80 external hexagon internal expansion bolts made of 201 stainless steel. 304 stainless steel expansion bolts are also available upon customer request.

4. Locks with lock plates

Locks are very diverse in type for trash cans. The commonly used one is the model 705 on the left, which is a triangle lock with keys, made of galvanized steel. If customers have special requirements, 304 stainless steel locks can also be selected, but the price is much higher.

5. The inner bucket (also used as an ashtray)

The inner bucket is mainly for holding waste and extending the service life of the trash can. The standard inner bucket is made of 0.3 to 0.4 mm galvanized steel. Alternatively, you can choose a stainless steel inner bucket, or have the inner bucket powder coated, or increase its thickness. The inner bucket for standard products is formed by machine stamping. For some products requiring customization, if no suitable mold is available, the inner bucket is handcrafted.
