Abstract: A pedestrian gate closer for a pedestrian gate is provided. The pedestrian gate closer includes a housing mounted to the gate or hinge support structure depending on mounting conditions. A pedestrian gate closer is mounted into the housing. An adjustable arm is fastened to the support post or the gate depending on mounting conditions. The arm is fitted with an adjustable collar which slips over the rotatable output shaft of the pedestrian gate closer so that when the gate is opened the closer rotates adding pressure to the closing spring. When the force is removed from the gate the closer closes the gate safely and securely.
