Review: Strong hinges, great customer service! - I needed spring hinges for my outdoor shower enclosure door. My carpenter originally designed the door out of Hardie boards to match the rest of the enclosure. That was a big mistake, as it weighed over 125 lb. The door was redone but it still weighed about 60 lb. However, there was a problem in that traditional strap gate hinges would not work. This required a heavy duty hinge. This fits the bill as it is rated for gates up to 154 lb. I did a great deal of research and came across D&D Technologies. I wanted to have a heavy duty hinge that would attach to the 2X4 frame of the door, without the need for additional bracing. I could not find exactly what I needed, so I called their customer service. A real person answered and promptly directed me to Ian, who told me this model that would work for my door. One thing to consider, when you are selecting this hinge is the gate gap. The original door had only about 1/4 inch on each side. This hinge requires no less than 11/32 inch gap on the hinge, but 3/4 inch is optimal. This necessitated cutting about 3/8 inch off of the hinge side. Not a big deal, but a bit more time consuming. Also, some models have one (or two) "ears" that wrap around the corner. This particular hinge does not, minimizing the amount of gap required. One last point. D&D supplies #12 one-inch, self-tapping screws with the hinge. This length is woefully inadequate, especially for a hinge rated for 150 lb. plus. I went to my local hardware store and bought 2 1/2 inch stainless wood screws. I pre-drilled the holes with an 11/64 bit and they went in like butter. Since the hinge has a cover you don't see them so no need to paint them black. The spring mechanism is so strong that I have it set at minimum tension and the door closes firmly without banging. Adjusting the tension is super easy, requiring only a screw driver. All in all, I am impressed by the quality and even more with the D&D customer service. I didn't expect to pay over fifty dollars for a pair of hinges, but I'm completely satisfied with the performance.
Review: Decent product with a couple of flaws - These hinges are plastic so we will see how they hold up over time. I would have preferred a stronger material. The description says you can mount them with a gap between the post and the gate as small as 1/4 inch. However, to do this you have to chisel away a little bit of the edge of the wood gate where these mount or it will not close all the way. The other flaw is with the mounting hardware they provide. Included are small, self-tapping screws that are not sufficient to support the weight of the gate. In fact, all three of the gates on which I installed these hinges started sagging within a couple of days. I went to the hardware store and picked up stronger lag screws which did the trick. Overall, they seem to work great once installed, but the installation was much more difficult than it should have been given the need to notch the gate and make a trip to the hardware store for better screws.

## Features

- TENSION ADJUSTABILITY - Patented tension adjustment system enables you to adjust the tension for closing speed
- POOL AND SAFETY FENCES - Rigorous testing has proven these hinges are trusted for high-traffic gates, child water safety around pools, daycares, and pet barriers
- INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH POLYMER, NOT PLASTIC - Following extensive research and development over 30 years, our polymer technology has evolved to the point where reinforced engineering polymers are increasingly being used in high-stress applications in place of traditional metal components. Our “metal replacement” polymer will not rust, bind, sag or stain and is self-lubricating. D&D polymer gate hardware is durable and built to last a lifetime.
- FOR WOOD OR VINYL GATES - This durable gate hinge is made for square post wood or vinyl gates weighing up to 154 pounds with a 8/10" gate frame to fence post gap
- COMES WITH - Two hinges, mounting brackets, and stainless steel screws. Remove old hinges before installing new hinges.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Saved Our Gate!
*by C***F on January 24, 2026*

A bad windstorm literally ripped out gate off it's old hinges and I had no idea what to do about it. After a bit of research, I hesitantly purchased these and hoped for the best. Boy, was I pleasantly surprised! Installation was super easy and we have had many bad windstorm since then and the gates haven't budged once. If you're looking for a sturdy hinge replacement, or a go-to hinge for the first go-around, you can't go wrong with these.
