HOW DO YOU FIX OR ADJUST THESE TYPES OF HINGES?

  1. Take out the locking pin and keep it safe, as you do not want to lose it. It is a good idea to have a container to put all parts in and a magnetic screwdriver to prevent the loss of anything. Now use your Hex wrench by placing it into the socket on top of the hinge where the spring is and turn in either direction, to release the tension on the spring. Once that is done just remove the spring with pliers.
  2. Always make sure you loosen or tighten any screws on the tension spring in small steps. Rotate the wrench until the next hole comes into view and re-install the pin. Now all you need to do is test your door closing rate.

HOW TO PREVENT THE DOOR FROM SLAMMING SHUT TO FAST AND HARD?

Stick a few felt pads onto the edge of your door frame at the top and bottom, as well as top and bottom of the frame with two last ones on the strike plate on the top and bottom.

This felt padding should provide just enough cushioning to slow the door down when closing and prevents the slamming door.
