The Honest Bit — read before you buy

This is not Pool Perf®. This is an imported product from China, sold at an imported-product price. Before you add it to the cart, know what you’re getting:

It’s the same imported product many fence companies sell — we’re just cheaper and we put this in writing. You’re buying with eyes open (and your Australian Consumer Law rights still apply).

Need another colour? You need Pool Perf®. Need longer than 2m? You need Pool Perf®. Want a custom design or Australian made? You need Pool Perf®.

The 156 Series Polaris Face Mount Hinge Pair is the premium alternative to the Tru Close hinge — offering smooth soft-close technology for a more refined gate action. Where the Tru Close provides reliable spring-closing, the Polaris provides a controlled, dampened close that eliminates gate slamming.

Manufactured from heavy-duty aluminium with a satin finish and black polymer covers, these hinges suit installations where a premium aesthetic and smooth operation are priorities. The face mount design suits the 38×25mm Perf gate frame profile.

Note: The PSC-FM156 is now rebadged as the 200 Series by the supplier. Product specifications and performance are identical.

Common Applications
Premium pool gate installations requiring smooth soft-close action
High-use gates where slam prevention is a priority
Architectural or high-end residential pool fence projects
Commercial pool areas requiring heavy-duty hinge performance

What is the difference between Tru Close and Polaris hinges?
+
The Tru Close (TC-H-AT-B, $39.30) is a reliable spring-closing hinge — workhorse of pool gates, widely used, great value. The Polaris 156 Series ($302.70) is the premium option with built-in soft-close dampening that gives a controlled, slam-free close. For most residential installations the Tru Close is excellent. The Polaris is ideal for high-end or commercial projects where gate action quality matters.
Does this come as a pair?
+
Yes — one pack of PSC-FM156 contains 2 hinges, which is the complete set required for one gate.
Is this compatible with Perf gates?
+
Yes — the face mount design suits the 38×25mm gate frame profile used in all Perf gates. Contact us if you have questions about your specific installation.
