WATERSON Auto Door-Closer Hinge The Waterson hinge is a hybrid conventional door closer & spring hinge. It has a built-in tension adjuster with speed control, so no more slams! Suitable for interior & exterior openings. Easy installation with subtle balance between aesthetics & functionality. We guard your privacy behind doors, soothe the noises of slamming, & guarantee a comfortable dwelling environment. Whats the Difference Between Hydraulic & Mechanical Hinge Types? The difference between the two types defines how your door closes: Hydraulic
(soft-closing) type: Soft-closing; the door specifically slows down in the hydraulic zone.
Mechanical (self-closing) type: Self-closing; closing speed remains mostly average from swing to latch. Choosing The Right Hinge Type Scenarios where hydraulic
& mechanical hinges are needed:
Hydraulic: Room is mildly windy & you dont want your door constantly slamming.
Examples: Storefront, luxury apartment, high-end villa.
Mechanical: Latching & self-closing are the only priority. No special speed adjustment needed; rapid temperature/humidity changes like outdoor environment.
Examples: Five-star hotel. Why Should I Use A Closer Hinge? Our hinges are tested & proven.
