ABSTRACT:
A closer mechanism for a flexible gate is disclosed. The mechanism is mountable to a member at one end of the gate opening. A bail for receiving the upper end of a gate post is moveable toward and away from the stationary member by the pivoting motion of an operating lever. The mechanism provides a mechanical advantage to provide a force to tension the gate as it is closed. The mechanism has adjustable features for mounting the mechanism and adjusting the distance the bail is moved as the lever is pivoted. A lower loop is provided for receiving the lower end of the gate post.
