Spring Tools PM407 Professional Door Hinge Pin Remover & Nail Set Tool - Hammerless Door Pin Removal - Dual Nail Set for Trim Work - Spring Powered Nail Setter - Painter & Carpenter Essential Tool

Easy to use Fit in tight spaces I received these today and tried them out around the house to see how they worked. First impressions: On old hinges, the hinge pin removal tool takes a few strikes to drive the pin out of the top, newer hinges would probably be much easier, time will tell. Less space was necessary to use it compared to a hammer/punch, this made removing the bottom hinge pin easier. The nailset works well to recess finishing nails. Drove a framing nail from a nailgun 1/2" into a 2x4 with 6 strikes. It will bend small brads from a trim nailer if they're stucking out too far, but thats to be expected with thin wire brads. Fun tool to use, and very quick. Overall, glad I bought this set, and I think I'll enjoy using these at work.

We had all our inside door hinges replaced as part of a remodel last year. One hinge recently started squeaking, but for the life of me I couldn't get the pin out to lubricate it. My normal strategy of putting a nail in the bottom and knocking it upwards with a hammer to push out the pin didn't seem to budge it. Grabbing the pin with vise-grips or diagonal cutters and banging on them didn't work, either, though that did a bit of cosmetic damage to the pin. I searched the Internet for other approaches, but nothing I tried worked. Then I stumbled upon this tool and decided to give it a shot. Within minutes of receiving the tool, I had the problematic pin out. So, I figured solving a problem that had me stymied warranted a review. Plus I wanted to tell someone but it's hard to get friends excited about hinge pin removal. The spring tools themselves seem solid and well made, and no worse for wear after removing a couple hinge pins. My only caution is not to get too relaxed when using it; if you release the spring when there is a gap between the striker and its target, the whole body will move and sting your fingers enough to help you remember next time.

In tight spaces or don't feel like swinging a hammer or going to find 2 tools to do one thing. This is your ticket. Only problem is I wish I knew they existed sooner! I keep mine closely guarded as everyone feels the same way about them as I do. It's like having a hot girlfriend.... in your pouch..... you lend her out just once and you bet you're going to have to go looking for her to get her back. I'd buy these again in a second!

Product is very easy to use. Love the compact design, slips right into a pencil slot on a tool pouch, no need to carry around a hammer. The edge of the large nail set did eventually chip in one spot, but I use it almost everyday so I wouldn't expect anything less for the value of the product and the length of time I've had it.

I purchased this set of Spring Tools after watching several YouTube videos on various ways to remove hinge pins from doors. I have a house built in the 70s with original hardware. One of the doors was sticking and I wanted to adjust the hinges to eliminate that issue. I had tried using a screwdriver with a hammer, and while it worked, I wanted something easier. In preparation for using this product, I tried going to the manufacturer's YouTube channel to get instructions on how to use it - step by step. There were none. I found another channel with a seller of a similar product and they had the tutorial I needed. Admittedly, this isn't tough to use, but there were some tips to avoid mishaps. I wish this tool came with a link to a tutorial, had updated YouTube videos on how to use the tools, or a brief instructional something on the packaging. Since the hinges are old, I sprayed a product to loosen up any rust or debris before using the tool. This helped a lot as when I tried dislodging the pin without it, even the power of the spring wouldn't budge 'em! I was able to successfully remove all the pins with the use of this spring tool, but one got stuck midway and would go no further by using the spring. I ended up using the claw end of a hammer to pull it up and out. I tried the other tool and it worked as expected, easily making a pinhole mark in wood and metal. I didn't pull back very hard on it, but I could see where it would be very useful too. Both tools seem well made and would be good for DIY and casual users. I don't think they are up to pro-quality, but for the occasional job, they are useful. For hinge pin removal, the spring tool worked as expected and made the job faster and easier.

I wish I knew about this 40 years ago! It works exactly as advertised. I used it immediately to fix a wood serving tray with nails that needed to be reset. I had not been able to do so satisfactorily in the past and it only took 2 minutes to complete the job. Never again will I damage door trim removing a door. I will not part with these tools willingly. I know it is silly to be so joyful about a small cheap tool, but it does an Important job well.

This works as advertised. I was a skeptic but the hammer was not working and I saw this on Youtube. After several pulls this loosened the hinge pin and pushed it up. The only suggestion I have is to wear a good pair of work gloves as the pull and release of the spring is abrasive on bare skin. I probably will never use the Nail Set tool but it was worth it to me to pay the price for both tools to have the Hinge Pin tool.

Saw a YouTube video on 5 tools you need in your woodshop and this was number 3. Takes a little practice getting used to it, but way better than a hammer and set punch. Went through with my brad nailer, when back with my spring nail set, puttied over, and done! Later, I had to take a door off to move some furniture... grabbed the one made for removing hinge pins. It popped them out so quick and slick, I had to catch them in the air!

Arrived on time, bought as a gift which was appreciated. Good quality

This is a great little tool. The mail set is so much easier to use then a traditional set and hammer. It’s way more accident and doesn’t want to slip off the mail. Just hold in place, pull it back, let go and wham! Nail is set! The hinge pin tool is awesome too, no more banging up trim while messing around with a hammer and screwdriver or whatever you use to push the hinge pins out. These are the greatest little tools I’ve come across in a while!

Works like a champ, but beware it hurts like hell if you hot your fingers

Good quality from a reputable company 😀

يسهل الاعتقاد بأنها ستوفر قوة ضرب ضعيفة فقط - لكنها قوية جدًا!! عبقرية خالصة.
