I am forever lubricating my hinges, however it does not last long. what
is the best lubricant for a long term effect please?

I use a spray can of motorcycle chain lube. Goes on thin, dries to a thick
sticky grease. Lasts a few years on a gate in full waether, on an open
hinge (a
vertical pin in a metal hole just off the ground).

I don't bother to lubricate mine that are like that, works fine.
