What happened

D&D Technologies is recalling OL.MI-branded SureClose READYFIT 180 hinge-closer sets with model numbers 74108333T and 74108335T. These hydraulic devices are designed to mount on gates and were sold in sets of two with mounting screws. The hinge-closers can malfunction and fail to fully self-close gates when installed, which can allow unintended access to pools and other areas, creating injury and drowning hazards for young children. The recalled products were manufactured between October 2018 and September 2019, and can be identified by the OL.MI branding and date code in MM/YY format visible on the end of the hinge-closer body when in the open position.

Affected consumers should immediately stop using the recalled hinge-closers and secure access to any areas with gates that have these closers installed. Consumers should contact D&D Technologies to receive either a full refund or to schedule a free replacement of the hinge-closers. The company will also provide free instructions and prepaid return shipping for consumers to mail the recalled hinges back.
