Door Hinges - Auto Lock Vs Non Auto Lock

Product:  Door Hinges

When I was in the market for purchasing door hinges, I was particular in buying the best quality ones, especially for the front door, bedrooms and kitchen. The reason was simple. It was something which will be used to the maximum.

The hardware shop vendor showed me two versions

1 - Door Hinge with AutoLock: This hinch has some spring mechanism between the rolling section. This spring ensures that the hinge will remain in two positions. One in fully open position and other in closed position. So when the door is opened, one can apply only the slightest pressure to close it since the springs in hinges will also aid to close the door. Similarly for opening too.

2. Door Hinge without AutoLock: This was the normal Door Hinge.


I chose the AutoLock version (only for the front doors) since it seemed to have superior technology.
