National Marker N165472 Spring Tee Hinge 7 in Satin Black

Product Description

The NATIONAL MARKER N165472 is a Model 846 ornamental spring tee hinge designed for automatic gate closing on garden and patio gates. The hinge measures 7 inches and features a tight pin construction with a fully enclosed spring mechanism that returns the gate to the closed position without manual intervention. Spring tension is field-adjustable by rotating the collar, allowing installers to tune closing force to match gate weight and wind exposure. The satin black finish suits decorative exterior applications. This listing covers one pair of hinges weighing 2.082 pounds combined.

This hinge is suited for residential garden gates, patio enclosures, pool gates, and light-duty fence installations where self-closing function is required. The design accommodates both right-hand and left-hand gate swing, eliminating the need to stock separate handed units. The adjustable spring collar makes it practical for gates that see variable load conditions or seasonal wood movement.

• Fully enclosed spring provides automatic gate closing without exposed hardware
• Spring tension adjustable via rotating collar for field tuning
• Reversible for right-hand or left-hand gate swing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation hinge for residential garden gates, patio gates, and light-duty fence gates requiring self-closing function.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter, fence contractor, or experienced DIYer using standard woodworking fasteners. Ensure the gate frame is plumb and the post is structurally sound before mounting. Adjust the spring collar incrementally to achieve the desired closing force without overloading the gate frame or latch hardware. Check local building and pool barrier codes, which may specify minimum self-closing and self-latching requirements for gate hardware.
