 I'd be interested in a set of the black ones. Really wouldn't want to spent $150 on a set of door struts though.

Hello 
everyone,

I 
have come across a company that manufactures high performance and high quality 
gas struts. I am talking with them about the possibility of manufacturing a 
small batch of new door struts for us. The details are:

The 
strut will be the same length both collapsed and extended as the original 
Stabilus struts. They will have full dampening at the end of stroke to prevent 
door bounce. They will have the same force as original struts - no sagging 
doors. They have temperature compensation built in which means that cold weather 
should not affect the force as much as it does in the case of regular gas 
struts. This doesn't mean that it will maintain the same opening force in 
extremely cold weather but the effect should be minimized. They come with full 2 
year replacement warranty against defects in manufacturing and 
materials.

We 
can have the struts in two flavors:

1. 
Powder coated black cylinder with black nitrate coated piston.

2. 
Brushed 304 stainless cylinder with chrome coated piston.

If 
we can get enough people interested the prices will be:

For 
black/black gas struts: $30 each or $50 for a set of two with free 
shipping

For 
304/chrome gas struts: $80 each or $150 for a set of two with free 
shipping

Please 
let me know if this idea is worth pursuing. In my opinion the price is very good 
and the full 2 year replacement warranty is a very good insurance.

Anyone 
interested? 

Greetings 
from Poland!
