Wright Products - Standard Duty Pneumatic Screen and Storm Door Closer with EZ-Hold, White

Works great, easy to adjust tension for a soft or more forceful close. I like that it has a hold open button as well. It was easy to install, but to be clear I was replacing a similar product, so measurements and drilling had already been done for me.

Used to replace ours that rusted out after hurricane Helene. Works perfectly. Looks great. Can’t even tell we replaced it.

Works great ! Fit the existing brackets so installed in 30 seconds. I no longer have to fight the storm door going in and out. Just tap the switch and the door stays put. Great for this old geezer who walks with a cane.

I thought Tap N Go was a bit of a gimmick but I was willing to give it a try. Turns out I really like it and it works really well. I installed this on a 3' tall wood door in a walkway through my garage port area. It closes against a regular fence latch. It is sheltered from the weather. We go through this door constantly and groceries come through here so the Tap N Go is great for Costco runs. It is fully adjustable, the speed it closes and the force to latch at closing. I found it easy to adjust. We have had it installed for over a year and it still works the same as the day it was installed and is quiet. About the Tap N Go feature... When you open the door you can hold it open by just pressing a lever/button on the cylinder with your arm, knee, whatever. As the door closes or if you try to close it a little the button will pop out and it is set to stay open and to be released by simply pushing the door open a little. As you are going through just push the door open about 2" more and release and the door closes. I could see how a light aluminum screen door that catches the wind might over power the latch. It is designed to overcome the gas strut's power to close the door not stop a gust of wind from forcing the door shut. When I was purchasing I saw a few reviews of it failing this way and I would say you should not use this feature in windy conditions. To be fair, I think if you had a traditional closer with the metal plate that you slide down the rod to keep the door open, there would have been failure during that gust. The failure just would have been at another week point like the screws holding the closer to the door or frame would have failed. One of the reasons why I think ours has held up is that pretty much only my family that lives in the house uses it. Visitors seem confused by the door being propped open and some have tried to force it to close which, fortunately, we stopped them from doing but I would say that this is the one weakness in that people don't generally know how to use it and could break it. Like, say you set it open so UPS can bring in a few boxes and as they leave they turn and try to force is closed. So you just have to be careful to let people know to just push it open a little to let it close. Most people will stop when they feel the resistance. I have not had anyone break it yet. If they did I would just buy another. It's a nice feature

This was just ok to begin with, the door wouldn't open all the way and it didn't close the door tight most of the time but then it broke completely in 2 weeks of light use. I returned.

I had one failing so I got this as a replacement. It is so easy to use. Push open door and bump lever with your hip and door stays open. No fumbling with two hands to get a bit of metal to hold door in place. When ready to close it just push open a bit more and release. Couldn’t be easier.

Wish I had replaced the old closer with this one years ago. My wife is short and could never reach the locking tab on the original overhead closer that came with the door. This is an excellent replacement that makes propping the door open a cinch, just tap the button with your toe, open the door and it stays open. To close, no reaching, just open the door a bit more and it unlocks and closes perfectly! I highly recommend this door closer!

I liked it so much I bought several for my screen doors to replace the old fashioned type where you have to use a little metal clip or thing-a-ma-jig to slide it on the rod to keep the door open...usually taking two hands to accomplish. Then with two hands, slide the thing-a-ma-jig back to close the door. This all usually requires putting down the item your carrying or leaving the door open until you can return with two free hands to close it. Giving mosquitoes more time to get in. With Tap-N-Go...I can keep the item(s) in my arms using a hand to open the door and tap it with an elbow to keep the door open. To close the door I just push it open a bit further, usually with my hip or elbow out a bit and it closes. How sweet! Yes, I would recommend it to a friend and will definitely buy more to replace these in a few years. I live by a saltwater canal and the salt environment is hard on many things.

easy to install, great value for money
