chainlink fence gate hinge 90 deg opening

[delagina]

Anyone got a recommendation how to lock a chainlink fence gate hinge at 90 degrees.
Our standard gate hinge opens at 180 degrees or 270 degrees.
The hinge does not have to lock, as long as I can lock the gate at 90 degrees.
Maybe an extra hinge or lock that I can add to the gate or a non-standard chainlink gate hinge.
I'm looking online but no luck so far.

I was able to find 90 degree hinge but it does not lock.
I was told to have in ground pipe lock. I cannot lock in ground (long story).
I need to have a locking mechanism when the gate is open 90 degrees that is not in ground.

Assuming you can't find anything, get a three foot piece of galvanized pipe maybe 1-1/4" diam. Cut in half. Get out your welder or find one. Weld the two together at 90 degrees. Maybe put a gusset at the joint for more security. Secure one leg to top of fence with hose clamps or "U" bolts, a little loose, with the joint at the gate hinge area. Bring loose end up to meet the gate top pipe. Work out a lock at the end of this "L" shaped pipe to the gate top pipe for locking there. If you don't have a welder, now is the time to get one. Oh, paint it at the welds.

Would need to know more info about the gate (length and weight) to comment on the style of hinge. But in general, if you have a plate/flange on the hinge and one on the post with holes that align at open/closed positions, you can lock the gate in place with a keeper pin.
