Universal Self-Closing Spring Hinge: Featured Product

Self-closing hinges are a very useful gate feature. If you have any children or animals you don’t want escaping as you’re going through your gate, you should consider installing some of these hinges.

A hinge with a spring is known as a self-closing hinge. These hinges are popular with property owners who want more control of their gate’s traffic flow and with homeowners with pets and children. They also may help deter intruders from entering through your gate and provide additional security.

Universal Self-Closing Spring Hinges

The universal self-closing spring hinge can be used on residential and commercial chain link fences. This hinge uses four U-bolts to attach to the gate frame and fence post, utilizes a stainless-steel spring and hinge pin and is made of aluminum die cast housing. You will need 2 of these hinges per gate. If you have a commercial gate or a gate greater than or equal to 6-feet you will need 3 of these hinges.

You don’t need to risk overtightening a universal self-closing spring hinge because they have more surface area than most hinges. The ribbed texture of the inside of the hinge helps the hinge grip the pipe, while the U-bolts secure it in position. If you would like to make this hinge even more secure, there are tabs located on each U-bolt. You can insert  a tek screw in them to lock the hinges into place on the pipe.
