Q. Do pivot hinges close themselves?

Answer

Self-closing pivot hinges are great options if keeping the doors closed most of the time is a preference and keeping the indoor temperature constant through air conditioning is such a preference. Advance in technology has allowed for the manufacturing of soft self-closing pivot hinges where the door would close softly and not swing uncontrollably. The doors are being opened and return to the zero position and right before it reaches that position it slows down making a soft close.
