What is Self Closing Door Hinge

Self-closing door hinges combine the function of an overhead closer into one compact and attractive component. Some models include optional hold-open and door-stop features. They’re ideal for commercial doors, gates, and frameless glass doors, offering both functionality and aesthetics in a single unit.

Self Closing Door Hinges vs Traditional Door Closers

Spring Loaded Self-Closing Hinges blend form and function by installing flush on the door’s side — just like regular hinges — making them a discreet yet powerful choice. Thanks to their weather resistance, low opening force, and vandal-resistant design, they’re a practical fit for both indoor and outdoor use. With PVD finish options, 1 million cycle certification, and UL-listed fire protection, they bring lasting value with minimal upkeep.

In contrast, traditional door closers mount above the door and require more room and effort to operate. Their exposed arms can disrupt the look of a space and are more prone to rust, damage, and maintenance issues — especially in high-traffic or exterior applications.

How do self closing door hinges work

We offer two closing types. One is purely mechanical and the other is hydraulic hybrid. 

Purely Mechanical hinges are self-closing and ideal for high-frequency, heavy-duty applications such as hotel room doors, fire-rated doors, and arch-top doors. These hinges avoid pushing the door closed by hand — let it close on its own to prevent increased closing speed.

Hydraulic Hybrid hinges, on the other hand, offer soft-closing functionality and are perfect for environments where quiet and smooth door movement is essential. The oil-based braking system makes them especially effective in windy conditions, as they dynamically adjust closing resistance.

Main Difference:
Both hinge types are self-closing with adjustable speed. The key difference lies in wind adaptability:

  • Mechanical hinges operate at a fixed closing speed.
  • Hydraulic hybrid hinges automatically adjust to wind pressure, ensuring consistent and controlled closing in variable conditions.
