Why gas shocks for doors?
Gas shocks for doors offer the quintessential solution for ensuring they remain open when desired and shut when needed. However, our standard gas springs aren’t fit for horizontal installations. The gas spring’s seal isn’t aptly lubricated in such a scenario, leading to potential quick wear of the seal and consequent gas leakage. This would cause the gas spring to lose its pressure. It’s imperative our gas springs are set up (when at rest) with the piston rod facing downward. The casing contains a smidgen of oil, lubricating the seal. Moreover, this oil aids in providing the gas spring with slight end damping. This end damping functions optimally when the oil settles by the piston rod side.
Our gas shocks for doors are hence optimal for doors opening vertically. Consider shutters leading to stairwells or basements, for instance. A slightly divergent ‘door’ application, but undeniably crucial to factor into your decision-making.
Benefits of gas struts for doors
- Safety: Gas struts prevent doors from slamming shut, which helps avoid damage to the door and potential injuries.
- Ease of use: Gas struts make opening and closing doors much easier, even for heavy doors, by reducing the amount of force needed to operate the door.
- Durability: Gas struts extend the lifespan of doors by reducing shocks and wear that can occur from irregular use or hard slamming.
