So close to being useful but you didn't show the only part I'm confused on -- how to get the little metal pin that holds the spring in. Your hinge doesn't have the pin while you are attaching it, and then magically does have the pin after the next cut when you are on the other side of the door -- you edited out the only part of the process that is actually difficult. :(

Your wife's reaction would have been a great ending 😊

nice video. But, you really really really should have taken more time to demonstrate the adjustment process. Watching, I didn't actually see you adjust anything especially with that little pin??
@MaryBethBreckenridge
THANK YOU for this video! I installed a self-closing hinge on my basement door to keep my 1-year-old grandchildren from tumbling down the basement steps. I had to chisel out the hinge mortises to accommodate the thicker hinge, but that was just another web tutorial.

Will this stop a door slammer ? I have a roommate that's part caveman.

Thank you, Mr. Gizmo! Watched your video, clicked your link, got same day delivery, followed your instructions and it is done. Super easy. Thank you!

This looks so easy! I can’t believe I waited nearly 4 years with an open pantry door driving me nuts. Thanks!!!

Good call on the square vs rounded hinge shape. Gonna put these on my garage-facing door as a safety precaution.

Once installed how do I remove the door to repair a door jam without unscrewing from door jam?

Well done video. I’m glad I’m not the only one dealing with this issue
@williamjames890
Most excellent instructions on the spring hinge door.
@thomasrice1169
Thanks; I must have watched 6 videos to try to figure out how to use the pins and yours is the only one that explained that.

Another good reason for a pantry to be self-closing: the off chance you get a mouse! That happened to us last year, what a nightmare that was.
@DoctorMangler
Thanks for showing this! I was just looking for something that would do exactly that. I hope I can set it weak enough to not shut and let my cats push open but keep the drafts down. Thanks for the great explanation, I'll be sure to check radius and dimensions.
@Cannibaltron
Little known fact, building code requires any fire rated door (such a 20 minute door to your garage) to have a self closing hinge.
