Hey guys - I get the impression I will be spending a lot of time on TFP!
Question: i recently had my pool installed and with it a glass fence with a metal frame. It looks great- but when the gate closes… well sometimes it does it very hard. The auto close mechanism has been adjusted and it’s probably as graceful as I could hope for - but sometimes people open the door ALL the way and release or even the wind catches it and BANG. The glass is of course tempered- but still.
Anyways - I’m trying to figure out how I can make it slow close- but all the solutions appear to be for wood fences. I’ve even considered adding a 2nd auto close to counter balance the original to see if that would slow it down. Any ideas? Or am I an idiot and missing something obvious?
thanks
