The Verticlose 2 allows for precise adjustment of the closing speed and final snap to suit specific gate requirements.

Turning it counter-clockwise will increase the closing speed, making the gate close faster. Make small adjustments and test the gate's movement after each adjustment.

The final snap adjustment controls the force with which the gate latches shut in the last few degrees of closing. Locate the final snap adjustment screw.
