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.) Remove cover from hinge. 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. 11).
NOTE:
DO NOT remove the Allen wrench or release the
tension on the tension adjustment pin at any
time during the adjustment.
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. 11).
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. 12).
Once gate is aligned and adjusted correctly, snap on
5
decorative hinge covers (Fig. 13).
