Description
A hydraulic gate closer and a hinge in one, for pedestrian gates up to 150kg and 1.5m wide. The tall upper unit is the closer and the upper hinge in one body, with the matching double bearing lower hinge supplied in the same set. Together they replace a separate closer and a pair of hinges. The gate opens to 180 degrees and closes itself at a speed you set, and the speed is not thrown off by hot or cold weather. Everything is silver powder coated aluminium with fixing from the front, so there is no welding. The price shown is for one complete set of closer hinge and lower hinge.
Why this set works
The closer is built into the hinge. There is no arm across the gate and no separate closer body on the post. The gate looks the same as one on plain hinges, and nothing sticks out to be climbed on or damaged.
Closing speed holds steady through the year. The hydraulic damping is designed so that the closing speed is unaffected by temperature changes, which is the usual weak point of a hydraulic closer between summer and winter.
You can set how it finishes. The final closing speed adjusts separately, so you can choose a firm snap to pull a latch home, or a soft close where a slamming gate would be a nuisance.
Two-way adjustment after hanging. The hinge adjusts 2 x 20mm in width and height, which takes up small errors in the post and frame without re-drilling.
Opening resistance is rated at a maximum of 16 Nm, so the gate does not feel stiff to push.
Where it is used
Self-closing pedestrian gates at schools, nurseries and playgrounds, swimming pool and leisure site enclosures, communal bin stores, plant rooms and commercial perimeters. Anywhere a gate must shut behind each person without anyone having to think about it, up to 150kg and 1.5m wide.

Choosing the right closer
Start with the gate. This set is for gates up to 150kg and 1.5m wide. Lighter, narrower gates can use a smaller closer. Larger or heavier gates need the 200kg set, which uses a heavier lower hinge. If you already have hinges that you want to keep, a separate closer is the better choice.
| You need | Choose |
|---|---|
| Closer and hinge in one, silver, 150kg | This set |
| Lighter gate, up to 65kg | Hydraulic 180 degree closer and hinge, 65kg |
| Compact closer, up to 75kg | Compact 180 degree self-closing hinge and closer |
| Heavier gate, up to 200kg | Heavy duty hydraulic closer and hinge, 200kg |
| A closer to add to existing 180 degree hinges | Hydraulic gate closer for 180 degree hinges, 150kg |
Fitting and care
Fit the closer hinge at the top of the gate and the lower hinge near the bottom, with the 15mm holes at 140mm centres for the closer hinge and 40mm centres for the lower hinge. Drill through the front wall of the post and the gate frame, fix the expanding bolts from the front and hang the gate. Adjust the width and height, then set the closing speed and the final snap with the hex keys supplied. Bring the speed up slowly from a low setting, so the gate does not shut hard during setting up. Follow the instructions that come with the set, and have any gate on a public site checked by a competent installer once it is hung.
Check the speed setting and the bolts at routine inspections, and keep the housing clean. Do not attempt to open or refill the hydraulic section.
Frequently asked questions
What is included?
One closer hinge, the matching double bearing lower hinge, expanding fixing bolts and hex keys for setting up. The price is for the complete set.
How heavy can the gate be?
The published limit is 150kg and 1.5m wide. For a heavier gate, look at the 200kg set.
Will it work in cold weather?
Yes. The damping is designed so that closing speed is unaffected by temperature fluctuations, so a setting made in summer should still hold in winter.
Do I need to weld?
No. It fixes through 15mm holes from the front with expanding bolts.
Is it left or right handed?
Neither. It is reversible and suits both left and right opening gates.
