SureClose® Hydraulic Gate Hinges and Closers for Commercial Style Gates

D&D Technologies Pty Ltd, the Australian design and manufacturing company that invented magnetic safety gate latches and polymer safety gate hinges, announces the release of the SureClose® range of hydraulic gate hinges and closers for commercial-style gates.

Precision engineered hinge closers

• Constructed of high-grade aluminium housings and stainless steel components for lasting operation.
• Dual sealed thrust-bearings in each hinge give the capacity to cope with the heavy loads (up to 680kg point load) of commercial-style and high-traffic gates
• Closing adjustment nozzles located at the top of these hinge-closers provide fine adjustments for either gate-closing speed or a final snap-close feature that not only reduces gate slam noise and enhanced gate latching, but also helps protect and prolong the life of the gate and its latching mechanisms

Hinge and closer all-in-one to revolutionise the reliability and closing capacity of heavy duty gates
SureClose is designed to replace conventional hinges and many of the commercial door and gate closers used on certain upmarket applications. Ideal for gates and accesses around:

• Shopping centres
• Childcare centres
• Schools
• Playgrounds
• Hotels-motels
• Apartments
• Airports
• Gated communities
• High-end glass pool gates

Through its unique design that conceals the closer hydraulics inside the fence post, SureClose provides greater strength and performance over traditional heavy duty hinges and closers, with an installed cost at or below current alternatives.

SureClose comes in three basic models, with a host of screw-on or weld-on mounting brackets that cover most square-posted gates and fences, notably steel and aluminium.

Each self-closing hinge comes with its own adjustment tool and gate mounting bracket. Post mounting brackets are sold separately to custom-fit specific applications, including both flush/face-mounted and centre-mounted hinge fixing applications.
