Review on ๐Ÿšช Enhance Your Gate's Functionality with Nuvo Iron SCGS13BLK 13" Self Closing Gate Spring, Black by Savoeun Ramirez

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not so great. - Decking and Railing

Installation was fairly easy but the locking pin to adjust the tension won't stay in, it goes in freely and should be tight. Removing tension from the pull rod during insertion causes the pin to fly out in random directions at high speed. Once he almost punched me in the face. You need to find something to fasten this quickly. Don't know if there are quick setting adhesives that work on doors. Superglue won't work as it doesn't hold up in extreme weather, so that's out of the question. At the same time, I have a spring on my gate that won't work until I fix it. I've tried duct tape but it makes the pin slippery and it flies out even faster. However, the nib is solid and looks and feels like it might work if I can get the stylus to stay in. Installation is really easy, although as some have said, four screws are used to hold it in place. They work well enough even on my old gates that this shouldn't be a problem for most people. Installing the spring literally takes a few seconds if you use an electric screwdriver or drill to install it. If you do it by hand it may take a little longer, but it's not difficult. You just have to remember that the side with a pin goes DOWN, the roll pin is up.

Pros

Cons
