National Mfg N346-207 Self-closing Pvc Gate Hinge 2 Pack

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N346-207 is a self-closing PVC gate hinge set designed for residential gate installations on vinyl or wood gates. Each hinge uses an internal stainless steel spring mechanism to ensure consistent, reliable gate closure without external closing hardware. The polymer body will not rust or corrode, making it suitable for outdoor and poolside applications where moisture exposure is constant. The set is sold as a 2-pack and supports gates up to 5 feet high by 3 feet wide, with a working tension rating of 55 pounds and a point load capacity of 450 pounds. Tension is field-adjustable to suit gate weight and closure speed preferences.

These hinges are intended for use on residential vinyl or wood gates in fence, deck, and pool enclosure applications. The self-lubricating polymer construction reduces maintenance requirements over the service life of the hardware. The internal spring design eliminates the need for separate external spring closers, which simplifies the installation and reduces visual clutter on the gate frame. Installers working on pool barrier gates or yard entry gates will find the adjustable tension feature useful for meeting closure and latching requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with standard hand tools and fasteners appropriate to the gate material (vinyl or wood). Before installing, confirm the gate frame is plumb and the post is structurally sound to support the rated point load. On pool barrier applications, verify that the installed hinge and latch assembly meets applicable local pool fence codes before returning the gate to service. Tension adjustment should be performed with the gate fully hung and hardware secured.
