Description
The Locinox RHINO-SILV Hydraulic Gate Closer is an elegant, professional self-closing solution designed for pedestrian gates requiring a 180° opening range and a streamlined hardware appearance. Featuring a distinctive direct connection to the gate hinge, the RHINO-SILV combines hydraulic closing technology with a compact, visually integrated installation.
Finished in Silver, the Locinox RHINO-SILV is an excellent choice for modern residential, commercial and architectural pedestrian gate installations. Its direct hinge connection distinguishes it from conventional gate closers that rely on separate external arm arrangements, making it particularly appealing for applications where appearance and functionality are equally important.
Unlike an integrated hydraulic hinge-and-closer assembly, the Locinox RHINO is a separate hydraulic closing device designed to connect directly to a compatible gate hinge. This allows the closer to provide controlled self-closing functionality while the gate's primary hinges continue supporting and guiding the gate.
Designed for professional gate installers, fence contractors and access-control specialists, the RHINO-SILV offers a refined hydraulic closing solution for compatible pedestrian entrances.

Elegant Hydraulic Gate Closer with Direct Hinge Connection
The defining feature of the Locinox RHINO-SILV is its direct connection to the gate hinge.
Conventional hydraulic gate closers commonly use separate mounting arms or external linkage arrangements to transfer closing force to the gate.
The RHINO takes a different approach by connecting directly to a compatible hinge assembly.
This configuration provides hydraulic self-closing functionality while maintaining a streamlined appearance.
For architects, gate fabricators and professional installers working with decorative or modern pedestrian gates, the RHINO offers a distinctive alternative to traditional externally mounted gate closers.
The direct hinge connection also makes proper hinge compatibility an essential part of product selection.
180° Hydraulic Gate Closing
The Locinox RHINO-SILV is designed for compatible pedestrian gate installations requiring a 180° opening range.
This makes it particularly relevant for entrances where a wider gate-opening arrangement is desired.
The hydraulic mechanism helps return the gate toward its closed position after pedestrian use, providing controlled closing movement.
Potential advantages include:
-
Hydraulic self-closing functionality
-
Compatibility with suitable 180° gate configurations
-
Controlled gate movement during closing
-
Streamlined hardware appearance
-
Direct connection to a compatible hinge
-
No motorized gate operator required
Actual opening clearance depends on gate geometry, hinge selection, mounting configuration and surrounding structures.

Direct Hinge Connection vs. Conventional Gate Closers
The Locinox RHINO differs from many conventional hydraulic gate closers through its direct hinge connection.
Conventional Hydraulic Gate Closer
Typically uses a separate mounting arrangement and linkage to provide closing force.
Locinox RHINO
Connects directly to a compatible gate hinge, creating a more integrated closing arrangement.
This distinction is especially relevant for pedestrian gate projects where visible hardware should be kept streamlined.
The RHINO remains a separate hydraulic gate closer and should not be confused with a complete hinge-and-closer assembly.
Silver Finish for Architectural Pedestrian Gates
The RHINO-SILV identifies the Silver finish version of the Locinox RHINO hydraulic gate closer.
The silver finish provides a clean, professional appearance that complements a variety of pedestrian gate designs.
Potential applications include:
-
Aluminum pedestrian gates
-
Ornamental steel gates
-
Modern architectural gates
-
Commercial building entrances
-
Residential courtyard gates
-
Multifamily pedestrian entrances
-
Access-controlled walk gates
