HINGE TENSION IS PRE-SET AT THE FACTORY
AND USUALLY DOES NOT REQUIRE
ADJUSTMENT. If you wish to change tension
setting/gate swing speed, or completely disable
the self-closing feature, please see the following:
Hinge Tension Adjustment
a.) Place included Allen wrench into head of tension
adjustment pin in hinge. The head is at the end
closest to the "+" or "-" symbol on the hinge
barrel (Fig. 6).
b.) Following the indicators on the "+" or "-"
symbol on the hinge barrel, press down on
the tension adjustment pin and turn a quarter turn
toward the "+" to tighten, or toward the "-" to
loosen until satisfied (Fig. 6).
i.) Self-closing feature can be disabled by using
the Allen wrench to push down and turn
towards the "-" symbol until the gate no
longer shuts on its own.
ii.) Do not over-loosen the tension adjustment
pin, as this may damage the tension spring.
c.) When you have set the desired tension, simply
release the downward pressure on the tension
adjustment pin to lock it back into the hinge barrel.
Tabs on pin head will fit into notches in hinge barrel
when pin is in fully locked position (Fig. 7).

Additional Information

a.) Gate can be adjusted to swing up to 180º.
b.) Hinges have self-closing feature, which can be
