Has anyone found self-closing gravity pulley hinges for sale? I'd like to install one on my garden gate.

Actually, one of the easiest and most simple methods to closing a small gate is to attach a chain/rope/etc to the gate and the post with a weight hooked in the middle. You just have to experiment with the placement of where to hook everything. of course I am talking about a small, walk-through gate :-)
