The Concealed Gate Closer iscleverly designed to minimise theamount of gate closer that is visible.It fits inside the top, middle orbottom horizontal gate rail of a40mm steel box section (1 37/64”)gate frame or in a channel cut intothe top or bottom of a timber gate.When the gate is closed, the closer isbarely visible and completely avoidsthe need to place brackets on theface of the gate frame. This closer isthe ideal choice when appearance isimportant.
Hydraulic control of the gate closer’sclosing speed is fully adjustable byusing a long reach hexagon (Allen)key which is placed into the slot inthe polymer shroud shown in thefollowing pages.
To fit the closer, the gate must beremoved and suitable threaded holesmade in the gate and post to takethe closer. With timber gates, achannel needs to be made with arouter or other tool to accept thecloser in the top or bottom rail of thegate.
As with most gate closers, arestricting stop should be fitted toavoid damage to the closer and thegate closer should be allowed toclose the gate and the gate shouldnot be pushed or pulled close.
To select the correct gate closer simply decide the position where thegate closer is to be fitted, select the correct gate closer reference fromthose in the drawing below and then place your order. The mid-rail gatecloser (reference GATECLOSER011) is not handed and can be fitted inany position. The other two closers are handed and can only be fitted inthe positions indicated.
