SURE Close ® CENTER MOUNTING
MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
• Gate stop must be installed when using SF models. Gate must not be allowed to open past 90 ˚ . Doing so voids warranty.
• Never use more than two (2) SureClose hinge/closers on any one gate.
• Remove all other types of hinges and self-closing devices.
• Always install SM hinge at bottom of gate and 57 or 108 closer on top.
• Ensure the gate does not swing through the line of the fence. Use a “gate stop” or a latch (with striker)
to prevent this.
• All steel mounting brackets (gate and post) should be painted or powder coated. Spray painting is recommended.
• The anodized aluminum mounting brackets do not need finishing, but they may be painted or powder coated.
• DO NOT powder coat the hinge/closer, but they may be painted.
• DO NOT unscrew nozzle past the surface of the body.
• DO NOT turn the adjustment nozzles more than two (2) full rotations.
• DO NOT remove the adjustment nozzles or disassemble these hinges at any time. Doing so voids warranty.
• Ensure the hinges are kept free of sand, ice and other debris that could impair effective operation.
