Shop: D&D Technologies Gate Hinges
Internal Mount - Precision Engineered & Superbly Finished
(also available as an External Mount "ReadyFit" Model)
Tired of spending money replacing and repairing gate closers? Worried about liability when your gate doesn’t close? Fed up with the noisy, bulky closers? We have an alternative. SureClose was designed to replace conventional hinges, closers and header arrangements, through its unique design that hides the closer hydraulics inside the fence post.
Designed for commercial, industrial, custom residential and estate gates, SureClose comes in three basic models, with mounting brackets that cover most any square post installation, including steel or aluminum, flush mounted or center mounted, fastened or welded, with adjustable self-closing speed. Models are also available that feature a final snap action for overcoming electric or coded locks found in many security applications and a non-self-closing version for access control and most heavy commercial or residential gates with a point load up to 1,500 lbs. (680kg.).
Installation Instructions: Center Mount | Flush Mount Weld-On | Flush Mount Screw-On
NOTE: Use 5/32" or 4mm allen wrench to make adjustments to speed and snap action.
Q: If one orders ‘Snap Action’ Hinges, can the ‘Snap Action’ feature be turned off? A: Yes, the snap action can be adjusted to virtually eliminate it from the hinge. |
Q: Are all hinges and brackets made of steel? A: All the hinges are aluminum. The hinge brackets and post brackets can be either aluminum, for mechanically fastening, or steel for welding. |
Q: What finish, if any, is on these hinges? A: Both the aluminum and steel components are powder coated. |
Q: Do all hinges have the same diameter threaded shaft? A: All hinges have the same diameter threaded shaft yes. |
Q: What size hole saw (for threaded shaft) is required to mount these hinges? A: Flush mount 1-9/16" (40mm), Center Mount 1-7/8" (48mm). |
Q: Are these recommended on gates up to 40” wide only? A: Self-closing weights are based on a maximum gate size of 72"H x 40"W (1800x1000mm). For gates with greater HxW, or if conditions such as wind play a role, use hinge combinations with higher self-closing weight ratings. |
Q: Do hinges and brackets come with installation instructions? A: Installation instructions are included with all hinges and post brackets. They are also available online above and on the respective product pages. |
