No, this listing is for 1 x gas strut.
The 150N strut is standard for most caravan gas lockers, but check the stamp on your existing strut to confirm your specific weight requirement.
Yes, it is a simple replacement that typically requires only basic hand tools to release the retaining clips.
If the strut is too powerful for the locker door, the door may be difficult to close or could put excess stress on the hinge points.
There is no fixed interval, but you should replace them when you notice the locker door no longer stays fully open on its own.
Verify if the 150N force rating is sufficient for your specific door weight or check that the strut is mounted in the correct orientation.
Apply a tiny amount of silicone-based lubricant to the pivot points and the rod.
Installation is straightforward as the unit is designed to work with standard industry mounting points. Before installation, ensure the locker door is supported safely by a second person or a temporary prop to avoid injury.
To maintain the longevity of the hydraulic seal, wipe the metal rod with a dry, clean cloth periodically to remove salt and grit, especially after winter or coastal travel.
