Description
Safetech Self-Aligning Adjustable Hinges – CoilKLIK – SHC-135
The Safetech CoilKLIK SHC-135 is an innovative pair of self-closing gate hinges featuring Safetech’s patented self-aligning adjustment system.
Designed to make gate installation and adjustment significantly easier, CoilKLIK allows the installer to adjust the horizontal alignment, vertical position and self-closing tension of the gate without removing or repositioning the hinges.
The unique coil-based horizontal adjustment system is particularly useful where the hinge and latch posts are not perfectly parallel, allowing the gate to be accurately aligned with the latch after installation.
Suitable for aluminium, steel, timber and vinyl gates.
🔄 Revolutionary Self-Aligning System
One of the major advantages of the CoilKLIK SHC-135 is its ability to correct gate alignment after installation.
Traditional gate hinges often require the hinge itself, mounting brackets or gate to be repositioned when the gate does not correctly align with the latch post.
CoilKLIK incorporates a patented internal adjustment system that allows the gate position to be fine-tuned directly through the hinge.
This makes it easier to achieve correct gate movement and reliable latch alignment.
↔️ Horizontal Adjustment
The CoilKLIK incorporates Safetech’s unique coil-based horizontal adjustment system.
Using the supplied Allen key, the installer can precisely move the gate horizontally in either direction.
This allows the gate to be aligned with the latch even where the hinge post and latch post are not perfectly parallel.
Horizontal adjustment can be particularly useful for correcting:
- Gate-to-post alignment
- Latch alignment
- Uneven gate gaps
- Minor installation inaccuracies
- Post alignment variations
- Gate movement after installation
↕️ Vertical Adjustment
The SHC-135 also provides vertical adjustment.
This allows the gate position to be fine-tuned vertically to achieve the correct height and alignment.
The combination of horizontal and vertical adjustment provides considerably more installation flexibility than conventional fixed gate hinges.
🔧 Adjustable Self-Closing Tension
The CoilKLIK SHC-135 incorporates an adjustable spring tension system.
Using the supplied adjustment key, the closing tension can be increased or decreased to suit the gate.
This allows the installer to achieve sufficient closing force for reliable operation without applying unnecessary spring tension.
Correct adjustment is particularly important when the gate is being used with a self-latching gate latch.
🔑 Simple Allen-Key Adjustment
Safetech designed the CoilKLIK so that the primary adjustments can be carried out using the supplied Allen key.
The adjustment tool can be used to:
- Adjust horizontal gate alignment
- Increase self-closing tension
- Decrease self-closing tension
- Fine-tune gate operation
Horizontal adjustment can also be performed using a suitable cordless drill bit for faster installation.
This makes future gate adjustments considerably easier without requiring the hinge assembly to be removed.
💪 Up to 85kg Self-Closing Capacity
Safetech rates the CoilKLIK SHC-135 for a closing gate weight of up to 85kg under its standard test conditions.
This makes the hinge suitable for substantial pedestrian and swing gate applications where reliable self-closing operation is required.
The actual closing performance can be affected by gate dimensions, installation geometry and environmental conditions.
🏗️ Up to 360kg Holding Capacity
The SHC-135 has a maximum holding capacity of up to 360kg under Safetech’s specified test conditions.
Holding capacity and self-closing capacity are different specifications.
The 360kg figure relates to the hinge’s ability to support a gate, while the 85kg rating relates to its specified self-closing performance.
For self-closing applications, the closing capacity should therefore be considered when selecting the hinge.
📐 Adjustable Gate Gap
The CoilKLIK SHC-135 is designed around an ideal gate gap of approximately 25mm.
Safetech specifies an approximate gate-gap adjustment range of:
- Minimum: 13mm
- Ideal: 25mm
- Maximum: 29mm
This adjustment range provides additional flexibility when aligning the gate between the hinge and latch posts.
🚪 Ideal for Pedestrian & Swing Gates
The CoilKLIK SHC-135 is suitable for a wide range of swing gate applications.
Typical applications include:
- Pedestrian gates
- Aluminium gates
- Steel gates
- Timber gates
- Vinyl gates
- Self-closing gates
- Residential gates
- Commercial gates
- Fence gates
- Access gates
🏊 Self-Closing Gate Applications
The adjustable spring mechanism makes the CoilKLIK particularly useful where a gate needs to reliably return to the closed position after being released.
When correctly selected, installed and adjusted, the hinges can be used as part of a self-closing gate system with a compatible self-latching gate latch.
Any installation subject to pool or safety barrier regulations must be completed and tested in accordance with the applicable requirements for that installation.
🧱 Engineered Polymer Construction
The CoilKLIK hinge body is manufactured using engineered polymer components combined with rust-resistant stainless-steel pins and springs.
This provides a durable hinge assembly suitable for outdoor gate installations.
The polymer components also eliminate the need for conventional hinge lubrication.
🌦️ Rust-Resistant Materials
Safetech uses corrosion-resistant materials throughout the CoilKLIK hinge assembly.
Construction includes:
- Engineered polymer components
- Rust-resistant stainless-steel pins
- Rust-resistant stainless-steel springs
This makes the hinge particularly well suited to gates exposed to normal outdoor environmental conditions.
🛢️ No Lubrication Required
Unlike many traditional metal gate hinges, the CoilKLIK does not require regular lubrication.
This helps reduce ongoing maintenance while avoiding grease and oil around the hinge assembly.
🦵 Two-Leg Mounting Design
The SHC-135 uses Safetech’s two-leg mounting arrangement.
The mounting legs provide secure attachment to suitable gate and fence-post structures while allowing the hinge mechanism to perform its horizontal, vertical and tension adjustments.
The gate and post must provide suitable structural mounting points for the hinge assembly.
📏 Suitable for Multiple Gate Materials
Safetech specifies the CoilKLIK SHC-135 for gates and fencing constructed from:
- Aluminium
- Steel
- Timber
- Vinyl
This makes the hinge particularly versatile for residential fencing, architectural gates and general pedestrian access applications.
🏆 Award-Winning Design
The Safetech CoilKLIK has received recognition for its innovative gate-hinge design.
Its patented adjustment system was developed to simplify one of the more difficult parts of gate installation: achieving accurate alignment between the gate, hinge post and latch post.
The system allows alignment to be corrected through the hinge rather than requiring substantial repositioning of the gate hardware.

⚠️ Please Note
Safetech’s quoted weight capacities are based on a standard test gate measuring approximately 900mm wide x 1200mm high.
Safetech specifies a maximum holding weight of 360kg and a closing weight of 85kg under these test conditions.
Gate dimensions beyond the standard test size can affect the effective holding and closing capacity of the hinges.
The gate structure and posts must be sufficiently strong to support the gate and hinge loads.
Correct hinge adjustment is essential for reliable self-closing and latching operation.
Where the hinges form part of a regulated safety or pool barrier, the complete gate installation must comply with the applicable regulations and standards. Hinge selection alone does not make a gate compliant.
