SureClose 108 is a concealed hydraulic gate closer. It features Final Snap Action (FSA) which increases speed at the end of closing to overcome electric or coded locks. Both closing speed and FSA are adjustable using the enclosed adjustment tool.
Designed to never leak hydraulic fluid, the SureClose 108 is extremely safe and does not offer resistance if closed quickly in an emergency. Soft, quiet closure also protects the latching/locking system. Tested to 500,000 open/close cyles and a 1,500 lb (680kg) point load.
SureClose 108SF is suitable for pool and safety gates. SF models open to and self-close from 90°.* NO hold-open feature.
*CAUTION: When used on swimming pool gates, always consult local authorities for swimming pool codes.
All SureClose hinges and closers come packaged with the gate mounting bracket included. Post mounting brackets sold separately.
Aluminum gate mounting brackets: Pre-drill using 3/16" (5mm) drill bit and use #14 countersunk through-bolts or fasteners. See post brackets for their fastener requirements.

SureClose Features:
**CAUTION: A gate stop must be installed when using SF models. Gate must not be allowed to open past 90°. Doing so voids warranty.
WARNING: California's Proposition 65
Each hinge comes with its own adjustment tool (excluding SM model) and gate mounting bracket.
Post mounting brackets are sold separately to custom fit the specific application.
Most residential gates require only one Self-Closing Hinge paired with a Non-Self-Closing Hinge.

Here is a great video from a customer of ours out in Chicago, IL. He built and installed these horizontal board wooden gates and we are honored that he chose to use a variety of our hardware for this outstanding project. The self closing gates are hung using D&D Technologies SureClose - 108SF S - Sealed Bearing Hinge Center Mount Hinge Closers (Part # 75108123) and D&D Technologies SureClose - 6026-02 - Post Mounting Bracket, Center Mount Version (Part # 7512).
The gate is secured using a D&D Technologies Magna-Latch Vertical Pull Series 3 Magnetic Child-Proof Latch in Black (Part # ML3VPKA) and a D&D Technologies 24" Drop Bolt, also in Black (Part # DD-410003).
Great Job Michael - Keep up the fantastic work!
