Locinox USA TIGER-9005 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What gap between the gate leaf and the post does the Locinox Tiger 9005 gate closer need?
The Tiger works with an installation gap from 7/16 inch up to 1 inch, and it has 5/8 inch of adjustability within that range, so a field-measured gap anywhere in that window can be dialed in rather than reworked. There is also 3/4 inch of vertical adjustment for lining the leaf up with the post after hanging. Measure your actual gap before ordering: below 7/16 inch or above 1 inch, this is not the closer for that opening.
2) Do I have to order a left-hand or right-hand version of the Locinox 9005 Tiger gate closer?
No handing to specify. The Tiger hydraulic closer works on both left and right turning gates, so one part number covers either swing. That matters on a site with gates hung both ways, because you stock one item instead of two and the installer cannot pull the wrong one off the truck.
3) Is a hinge included with the Locinox Tiger 9005, or do I need to buy hinges separately?
The Puma hinge ships with the Tiger closer. The Tiger itself is a self-closing hydraulic hinge, so the pair gives you the closing hinge plus the companion hinge for the leaf. What is not included is the Tiger drill, a dedicated drilling tool Locinox recommends for a faster install; that is an optional add-on, not a requirement to mount the unit. Mounting itself uses Quick-Fix bolts.
4) For an interior gate that swings both directions, is the Tiger gate closer the right choice?
No. The Tiger is a 180 degree self-closing hydraulic hinge built for exterior gate applications, with a weatherproof powder coated aluminum housing and hydraulic damping that holds closing speed through temperature swings. For a gate that must swing in both directions indoors, the Norton Rixson Model 354 is a double-acting interior gate specialty closer for 75 lb doors, in the 350 Series. Double-acting means the leaf opens either way and returns to center, which the Tiger's single-direction 180 degree hinge action does not do.
5) What is a comparable exterior gate closer to the Locinox 9005 Tiger for a heavy perimeter gate?
The Norton Rixson Model 1351 is an exterior gate specialty closer rated for 250 lb gates. It differs from the 9005 Tiger in form: the Tiger is a 180 degree self-closing hydraulic hinge with a powder coated aluminum housing that carries the gate leaf and closes it, with adjustable closing speed and final snap and an installation gap of 7/16 inch up to 1 inch. The 1351 is a closer mounted to the gate and post rather than a hinge, so it is specified against gate weight where the Tiger is specified against the gap and the leaf mounting.
6) Will a gate closer keep closing properly through winter and summer, or does the speed drift with temperature?
Temperature drift is the usual complaint with hydraulic gate hardware, and it is what the Tiger's patented hydraulic damping addresses: closing speed stays consistent regardless of temperature swings. The housing is powder coated aluminum with internal components built for exposure, which is why it goes on exterior perimeter, parking, and industrial gates rather than being limited to sheltered openings.
7) How far will the Locinox Tiger 9005 let a gate swing open?
180 degrees. The Tiger is a 180 degree self-closing hydraulic hinge, so the leaf can lay back flat against the fence line for equipment or vehicle access and still self-close. Closing speed and the final snap are separately adjustable, so you can run the sweep slow for pedestrian safety and still get the leaf to pull into the latch at the end.
8) Why does a gate closer need a separate final snap adjustment?
Because a slow, safe closing sweep will not drive a latch. On the Tiger the closing speed and the final snap are two independent settings: you slow the main sweep so the leaf is not a hazard, then increase the snap over the last few degrees so the gate has enough force to seat into the keeper and actually lock. If self-closing gates on your property drift shut but do not latch, that second adjustment is the one being asked for.
9) Is a light duty gate closer enough, or does the application call for the Tiger?
The Norton Rixson Model 1351 is classified as light duty and is an exterior gate closer for 250 lb gates. The Locinox 9005 Tiger is a commercial gate closer with patented hydraulic damping that keeps closing speed consistent regardless of temperature fluctuations, plus adjustable final snap so the gate latches rather than drifting to the stop. Where a perimeter or parking entry gate cycles heavily and must positively latch each time, the adjustable speed and snap of the Tiger is the deciding difference; for a lighter service gate the 1351 light duty rating may cover the opening.
10) Can the Norton Rixson 354 be used outside on a yard gate instead of the Tiger?
The Norton Rixson Model 354 is an interior gate specialty closer, so it is not the part for a gate exposed to weather. The Locinox 9005 Tiger is built for that condition: powder coated aluminum housing with high-tech internal components intended for any weather situation, and hydraulic damping that holds a consistent closing speed as temperature changes. The 354 also handles a 75 lb door, a much lighter leaf than an exterior yard gate typically presents.
11) Which gate closer works for both left and right hand gates without ordering a handed version?
The Locinox 9005 Tiger works for left and right turning gates from the same part, so one item number covers both leaves of a double gate or a mixed set of openings across a property. It also gives 3/4 inch vertical adjustability and 5/8 inch adjustability within its 7/16 inch to 1 inch installation gap, so fit is dialed in on site rather than ordered in. Among the alternatives, the Norton Rixson 354 is double-acting, which is a different property: it lets one leaf swing both directions rather than letting one part serve either hand.
12) What finish does the Locinox Tiger 9005 gate closer come in?
Black only, as a powder coated finish over the aluminum housing. There is one orderable configuration, so there is no finish decision to make at the order form; if you are standardizing across a property, every unit will match.
13) Is the Locinox Tiger 9005 rated for commercial gate use or is it a residential product?
Commercial. The Tiger is classed as commercial gate hardware and is used on perimeter security gates, industrial facility access points, parking entries, warehouse and distribution yards, and multi-unit residential complexes, all applications where the leaf cycles constantly and sits out in the weather. For a property manager standardizing self-closing gates across a portfolio, the single black finish and the lack of handing mean one part number covers the whole site.
