| Don’t Fall For Cheaply Made Spring HingesSPEP Builds Them to LastJust what are spring hinges? A spring hinge is a hinge with flanges or leaves which attach to the door and jamb are connected to the hinge pivot points. Springs assist and provide energy for closing the door from the open position or opening the door from the closed position. Spring hinges make opening heavy doors easier, but they have the tendency to break down over time. Eventually, most spring hinges see the spring function losing power. The danger of going with a cheaply or poorly made spring hinge is that it will tend to degrade faster over a smaller period of time because the spring, if built improperly or with cheap materials, will eventually break down from overuse. Sadly, with cheap spring hinges, “overuse” can mean anything from daily use to even just occasional use.
If you opt for Sierra Pacific Engineering and Products brand spring hinges, there’s no such thing as overuse. We design our spring hinges to withstand even the most rigorous pressure by subjecting all of our designs to a gauntlet of intense testing. Our designers and engineers are all committed to creating the strongest spring hinges, because everyone – each employee in the company – has a personal stake in Sierra Pacific Engineering and Products. That means that creating the best product possible with the best possible shot at selling and pleasing our customers is the ultimate goal of everyone who works here.
If our spring hinges don’t last, we lose customers, and everyone suffers. If our spring hinges are built to withstand even the most severe amounts of use, our customers are happy and, hopefully, become return customers. If we have return customers, we must be doing something right.
Our customer service department is no different. They too have a stake in the company, and it shows in the level of graciousness and service they provide. If you want more information or a taste of great customer service for yourself, check out http://www.spep.com/istore/us/AskUs.html.
