HOME MASTER HARDWARESelf-Closing Spring Gate Hinge 3-1/2" Heavy Duty Automatic T Hinges Steel Black Finish with Screws 2-Pack for Wood Fence Gate Vinyl Shed Door

They seem decently sturdy. About the same quality as one would expect to find at the big orange box. The springs don't seem particularly strong though. They "barely" close my 3 foot'ish gate with enough force to actuate the spring-tensioned lever/handle. Sometime it still requires a nudge. Realistically, 2 is not quite enough for my gate, 3 would be much better.***My Rating Criteria***Build Quality(47.5%) - 4.0 StarsEfficacy(47.5%) - 3.5 StarsPost-Sale Support(0.0%) - n/aPackaging/Presentation(5.0%) - 5.0 StarsWEIGHTED AVERAGE(100.0%) - 3.8 STARS

Well-made product but unusual spring-engagement design.You will get a bag of stuff. No box, no instructions (which is why none are shown in the ad). Not even a pictograph. Frustrating as h3ll to try figuring out said design. This is the same product WITH directions: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GS8HFE2/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 You get only one instead of the pair but at least you'll know what to do with it.

I bought these for a fence gate so I could have a latch free/hands free entry gate on the side of the house. I originally bought 1 set and it didn't have enough spring to keep the door closed adequately even at the tightest setting. So I bought another set thinking it would increase the tension. It worked! for a while... Over time the springs loose tension and you have to keep tightening them. They also creak quite a bit. Went to tighten again today because the door won't stay closed even with 4 of these hinges. Tired of messing with it. I would not buy again. You get what you pay for in this case... Stay away.

I installed these on my gate. I adjusted the spring tension. When I opened my gate I heard a snap. The spring inside has apparently broke. It is now just a hinge - no self closing.

The is a very gate spring hinge is a sturdy. GREAT
