The Lockey Hydraulic Garden Gate Closer (Part #TB175) offers a reliable solution for ensuring your gates close smoothly and securely. Designed for versatility, it accommodates various gate materials—including metal, vinyl, and wood—and supports gates weighing up to 110 lbs and up to 54 inches wide.
The adjustable closing and latching speeds allow you to fine-tune the gate's movement to suit your specific needs, while the hold-open feature provides added convenience when you need the gate to remain open temporarily.
Installation is straightforward, with the ability to mount the closer at the top, middle, or bottom of either the right or left side of the gate. Its flush mount design ensures compatibility with most in-line hinge setups, providing a clean and unobtrusive appearance. Constructed from powder-coated steel, the TB175 is built for durability and long-term use.
Please note, for optimal performance and to maintain the product warranty, installing a gate stop is recommended to restrict the gate's opening angle and prevent overextension.

Why Choose This

- Easy pairing — Add the Adjustable Stainless Steel Gate Stop to cap opening angle and protect the cylinder.
- Round post ready — Use the TB-LINX chain link mounting kit to adapt to round chain-link posts.
Installation (Quick Steps)
- Mount on the opening side so the closer pushes the gate closed; set bracket spacing per template.
- Install a fixed gate stop to limit opening to the rated angle (typically ~90°–100°).
- Adjust closing and final latch speeds until your latch captures reliably.
Buying Guide
- Panel size — For heavier/wider gates, step up to TB200, TB400, or TB600.
- Hinge quality — Use good barrel-style hinges for best results.
- Environment — In corrosive/coastal areas, consider stainless-finish models.
