RETROFIT

Hi Lindsay, Just a quick note to let you know the Series 155 soft-close hinges arrived and I fitted them last Sunday. Working beautifully. I have completed and mailed the Warrantee Forms. Many thanks for your help.

Hello Lindsay, Thanks for your offer to provide a testimonial on my new hinges. Please use my first name only. After many years of consent concern when my friends and guests used my pool gate without assisting it to close softly I finally found and upgraded to a soft close hinge. Previously the gate could slam closed shaking the glass gate and pool fence vigorously. My Polaris 155 Retrofit hinge is a welcome relief, gently closing under all conditions. I am very pleased with the high quality appearance and performance of the retrofit hinge. During strong wind the gate may take additional time to close due to the wind pressure however this was the case before the upgrade under similar conditions and with the 155 hinge the gate always closes gently. I can highly recommend this product. Regards,

Hi Lindsay, The hinges were an absolute game changer, thank you! The retrofit was such a simple DIY job for me; everything aligned perfectly. And the soft close mechanism works a treat. I no longer need to to yell at the kids to “close the gate softly” to prevent risk of glass shatter or the glass panel spigots vibrating and cracking the tiles/concrete. Thank you!

The product looks good and works well As a sole trader a bit difficult to install solo. but all hinges are ! you also have to be prepared to work on the latch so the gate maintains it's Australian standard my customer was very happy with the results. Regards,

We love our Hinges and comment on them EVERY time we use the gate. Cheers

Hi Lindsay, After enduring the irritating and loud banging of my glass pool gates for 15 years I decided to have Polaris install retrofit hinges to my four pool gates. I couldn’t believe the transformation , now I can go in and out without waking the neighbours, or having to stop the gates from slamming. I highly recommend Polaris retrofit hinges to all owners of annoying old style pool gate hinges. I recently purchased a set of the Polaris 155 Retrofit Hinges and I am very happy with them. They were very easy to install and worked perfectly with no adjustment required. No more banging gate, would definitely recommend.

Yes, pretty happy with the hinges. I had a lot of trouble getting the old hinges off the glass, as the gaskets had baked on. Once I got that off then it was pretty good. The wall mounted hinge was a little tricky in that it mounted slightly different than my original hinges, so I had to take the gate totally off and measure and adjust a number of times to get right. I also wrongly assumed that the holes were the same size as the regular mounting bolts, which meant that I drilled out the holes too large and had to pick a different location. The hinges themselves after being installed are really good.
