Heavy Duty Hydraulic 180° Gate Closer and Hinge, 2-Way Adjustable, Silver, Gates up to 200kg

The heavy duty version of our hydraulic gate closer and hinge in one, for gates up to 200kg and 2m wide. The tall closer hinge fits at the top of the gate and a heavy self-closing double bearing hinge goes below it, both in silver powder coated aluminium. The gate opens to 180 degrees and closes at a speed you set, unaffected by temperature changes. It fixes from the front with expanding bolts, so nothing needs welding. Adjustment of 2 x 20mm in width and height takes up small errors after hanging. The price shown is for one complete set: closer hinge and heavy lower hinge.

Why this set works

Both hinges carry double bearings. A gate at this weight loads the hinges hard every time it moves. Double bearings in the closer hinge and in the lower hinge keep the movement smooth where a plain pin would start to wear.

Two hinges share the closing work. The lower hinge is self-closing as well, so it pulls with the hydraulic closer above it. That is what lets a gate this heavy shut reliably from wide open.

Steady in hot and cold weather. Closing speed is unaffected by temperature changes, so a setting made in summer should still be right in winter.

It still opens by hand. Opening resistance is rated at a maximum of 32 Nm, so a heavy gate can be pushed open without a struggle.

The design is vandal resistant, with no arm or exposed closer body on the gate for anyone to climb or damage.

Where it is used

Wide and heavy pedestrian gates at schools, sports grounds, hospitals, transport sites and commercial perimeters, particularly where a gate must shut every time and cannot rely on a person pulling it to. It is the set to use when a standard 150kg closer hinge would be working at its limit.

Specifications

Choosing the right closer

A measured sheet is not published for the silver finish. The black version of this set is published with a 405mm closer hinge and a 200mm lower hinge, on 15mm holes at 140mm centres, so if your fixing positions depend on exact sizes, call us before drilling. This is the current version of the 200kg set and it is not identical to the earlier listing. The published specification for this version adds the 2 x 20mm width and height adjustment, and the listed weight is different, so if you are matching an existing installation, compare the sizes first or call us. For gates under 150kg, the standard set costs less and does the job.

Fitting and care

Mark the closer hinge near the top of the gate and the heavy lower hinge near the bottom so that both are in line. Drill 15mm holes through the front wall of the post and gate frame, push in the expanding bolts and fix from the front. A gate of this weight needs a post that will not move, so check the post and its base before hanging. Set the width and height adjustment, then bring the closing speed up gradually with the hex keys supplied. Follow the instructions in the box and have the gate checked by a competent installer before it goes into use on a public site.

Check the speed setting and the bolts at routine inspections and keep the housing clean. Do not attempt to open the hydraulic section.
