Easy to install and works much better

Purchase an exact replacement door. Works much better than the old one. I'll see if the new one can withstand the saltwater corrosion of the bay. Said to be Florida bronze, but I'm guessing it's just one color. Installation took less than 5 minutes but I didn't have to drill any new holes.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • No Instructions

They work well for a while, but then rainwater gets in

You must manufacture this product so that it does not rust. After all, it is used outdoors. It's raining outside! They work fine for a while, but then rainwater gets in, the components start to rust, and the pneumatic function stops working properly. You have to constantly work with it to make it work at all, and then buy a new one when the frustration threshold is reached.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Poor instructions

Be careful before buying!

This pneumatic door closer works great once installed. Unfortunately I had to buy a separate bracket as the one that came with the kit didn't fit my door frame. Purchasing this additional mount added an additional $11 to the cost. I wish they had the option to choose the type of mount you want instead of just offering one type. It doesn't look like what I needed is rare. Once I had the right mount, everything was easy to install.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Useless features

Bad attitude and loud banging

I keep finding myself in a situation where I don't look at negative reviews and rely on average. As mentioned in the 1 star 2 star reviews, there is no way to adjust this thing so that it doesn't close about 4 inches and slam with force. The screws holding this thing to the door popped out after a few hits. I screwed in a few larger screws that seem to hold, but the force you can slam the door with with this device is pretty frustrating.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Reliability

If it were a desert it would be easy.

I bought this as a replacement. Couldn't be easier. open your door Mount the metal stop. Move the door back an inch. Pull out the pin on the right. Pull out the pin on the left. Remove the old closer. Hold the new one closer in place. Insert the pen on the right. Manually drag about three inches closer to the left. Mount the metal stop. Position the left side of the closer. Insert the left pin. Release the metal stop. Enjoy your new one closer. Well, about the time it would take to read this…

Pros
  • Ease of use
Cons
  • Functionality
