Abstract

Door closure apparatus has a hinge 1 having a first hinge plate 2 for attachment to one upstanding side edge of a door. A second hinge plate 3 for attachment to an upstanding side edge of a doorpost and means for enabling relative rotation between the two hinge plates 2, 3. Magnetic means have a first element which includes a magnet 10 and a second element which includes a keeper plate 4 to which the magnet is attracted. At least one element of the magnetic means is supported from the second hinge plate 3 and the other elements are supported by the first hinge plate 2 or the door. The arrangement being such that the elements of the magnetic means co-operate to or control movement of the door between its open and closed position. The magnet may be an electromagnet controlled by a switching mechanism. An electric motor may also be included to operate the first hinge plate 2 and can be controlled remotely by an electric RF signal from a hand held device.
