TruClose® Mini Multi-Adjust™ Round hinges are a contractor-friendly way to add dependable self-closing action to chain link walk gates on round posts. The compact hinge bodies hide the working spring and give you three kinds of adjustability—so you can align the leaf, set the gap, and dial closing force without re-drilling. Polymer construction and stainless internals stand up to weather and poolside environments, making these a popular choice for residential and light commercial pedestrian access (always verify full system compliance for safety/pool codes).
Why Choose This
- Easy setup, easy tune-up — Post-install vertical, horizontal, and tension adjustments
- Clean look — No exposed springs; compact profile suits residential gates
- Weatherproof — Corrosion-proof bodies with stainless internals for long outdoor service

Installation
Mount one hinge high and one low on the latch side of the gate. Use the supplied adaptors to size the hinge to your post and frame diameters. Set the gate gap within the recommended range, square and fasten the hinges, then adjust vertical and horizontal alignment as needed. Finally, tune the spring tension so the gate self-closes and latches reliably. Always use exactly two TruClose Mini Multi hinges per gate and keep spring tension balanced between them.
Buying Guide
- Match the duty rating: For heavier gates or high-wind locations, consider TruClose Round Heavy-Duty (Series 3) rated up to 154 lb.
- Choose a compatible latch: Pair pedestrian gates with a self-latching butterfly latch for secure closure.
- Check your gap: These hinges work best within the ~0.9″–2″ gap range; adjust your hinge shims/adaptors to suit.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How many hinges do I need?
- Use exactly two Mini Multi hinges per pedestrian gate—one high, one low—with equalized tension.
- Can I use these on pool gates?
- They’re commonly used on pool enclosures; final compliance depends on the complete system (hinges, latch, geometry) and your local code.
- What tube sizes will these fit?
- They include adaptors for common chain link sizes (e.g., 1-3/8″ or 1-5/8″ frames to 1-7/8″–2″, 2-3/8″, or 2-7/8″ posts). Verify your actual O.D. before ordering.
- Do they need lubrication?
- No. The polymer bodies are self-lubricating; avoid oil-based lubricants.
