Spring Hinge is a hinge with
flanges or leaves which attach to the door and jamb and are connected to
the hinge pivot points (barrel). Springs provide energy to close a door
from the open position or, in some cases, open a door from the closed
position. Most spring hinges are custom made to suit your requirements.
Spring hinges may be made in any material, gauge, and length desired.
Stainless Steel Spring Hinges are primarily used on pool gates and
around corrosive environments, where the gate must stay closed,
especially if accidentally left open. These spring hinges are
pre-punched and have a loose 1/4" pin. Adjustability allows for
different tensions, for different sized gates or doors.
