National Mfg N342-725 Stainless Steel Gate Spring 11 in 2-pack

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N342-725 is a stainless steel gate spring designed to deliver positive self-closing action on gates and doors. Measuring 11 inches in length, this spring is built for durability in outdoor environments where corrosion resistance is essential. Spring tension is fully adjustable, allowing the same unit to serve light-duty and heavy-duty gate applications. The stainless steel construction is also safe for use with premium wood species, making it a practical choice for fence contractors and gate installers working with cedar, redwood, or other treated lumber. Each package includes 2 springs.

This gate spring is suited for residential and light commercial fence gate installations where a reliable, hands-free self-closing mechanism is required. It is appropriate for use on wooden, vinyl, or metal-framed gates and doors in outdoor settings. The adjustable tension design makes it adaptable to a range of gate weights without requiring a separate spring for each application. Fence and gate installers, general contractors, and experienced DIYers commonly install this type of hardware in backyard, pool enclosure, and property perimeter gate assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by fence contractors or general construction trades using standard hand tools. Mount the spring to a stable gate frame and post with hardware appropriate for the gate material. Adjust spring tension only after the gate is fully hung and aligned to prevent binding. Follow any applicable local building codes, particularly for pool enclosure gates, which may require self-closing and self-latching hardware that meets specific force and height standards.
