Featured Product: Universal Self-Closing Spring Hinge

A universal self-closing spring hinge with 2 large u-bolts and 2 smaller u-boltsSelf-closing hinges are a very important gate feature. If you have any animals or small children you don’t want escaping as you’re going through your gate, you should consider installing one of these hinges.

Hinges with springs are known as self-closing hinges. These hinges are popular with homeowners with children and pets, and with property owners who want more control of their gate’s traffic flow. They can also help deter unwanted guests from entering through your gate and provide additional security.

Universal Self-Closing Spring Hinge

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

Universal self-closing spring hinges have more surface area than most self-closing hinges, so you won’t have to overtighten it. The ribbed texture of the inside of the hinge helps grip the pipe, while the U-bolts secure its position. If you would like to make this hinge even more secure, there are tabs located on each U-bolt for you to insert a tek screw to lock the hinges into place on the pipe.
