How to fix a carabiner with a broken gate
In this video, I show how a simple lightweight carabiner works and how the spring in the gate of a carabiner can easily be repaired with a simple standard screwdriver. As shown in the video, the spring in this type of carabiner can sometimes slip out of the spot that holds it. People often think the carabiner is broke when this happens because the gate does not snap back closed like it normally should; however, most of the time the metal spring piece has just come off the spot that holds it. Next time your simple lightweight carabiner has lost its spring, check this solution and it will likely be your fix. This works for many simple lightweight basic carabiner designs (not typically a climbing carabiner which as a bit more sophistication and capacity to it than this simple design).

Okay. Wow. My carabiner just went from the junk drawer to being back in service!! Thank you for taking the time to make the video.

@ZeroBeat1 4 дня назад

Thought that was how to fix it, but wanted to confirm it first. You just saved me about $10-$15, so thanks for that.

@haidaeyMage 3 года назад

I was struggling to fix this thing for half an hour.. tried everything.. pushing the spring inside to help put it back but whatever I tried it wasnt working.. almost thought it was not possible.. but thanks to this easy guide I was able to fix it in less than a minute.. this video was very helpful..

@dannyh9010 3 года назад

Thanks! I fixed my carabiner using your tutorial. Mine seemed to have some play in the rivet, so I used a pair of linesman’s pliers as an anvil and tapped the rivet a bit and it tightened up nicely. Tip: Don’t tap too hard. Go easy and check often. BTW - it looked like your carabiner body is maybe stretched out a bit. You can use a vice or hammer to close it up a little lengthwise so that the gate engages more metal.

@leydjennecarter 2 года назад

Awesome!!! I’m so glad you posted this. I just fixed my clip by following your instructions. I’ve thrown so many of these clips away thinking they’d broken. Great tip!!!

@G17.. 10 месяцев назад

Oh my god dude you’re a life saver I was able to fix the clip that came with my AirPods case and now I don’t have to buy a new one. You just gained a sub🙏

@goudvisbloem Год назад

Mine was also a souvenir with a fun Icelandic phrase so now I get to enjoy it a bit longer! Thank you

@yulingyong1682 3 года назад

@al3berto1 3 месяца назад

Thank you omg I had one of these ones for years with a bottle opener my son broke it and I was able to fix it with your tutorial 😊!

@ashfox7498 4 месяца назад

Thank you so much! I have a clip on a bit of paracord that I've been using as my keychain and I was really scared I'd have to say goodbye after the spring slipped loose, works good as new now

@sandywieduwilt7763 2 года назад

I’ve been looking all over for one of these didn’t even know the name my son use to mountain climb he told me what the name was I thought he was teasing me with the funny name and when you came up on my screen I was so happy and you explained very simply it took me a couple times because I almost tore it apart thank goodness I didn’t I finally got it I hope it took me a couple times it kept popping out I tried until I got it I’m very appreciative for you and your knowledge thank you for letting me tell my story bless you

@watchthiscrap Год назад

In all your repetitions on crap that is unnecessary and goes without saying, you didn't explain the only part people clicked this video for, as well as you could have. Which is that you push straight down on it (top to bottom, like a button) until it pops back into the metal grove. The way you explained, it sounded like I also had to bend it as well. And you don't. It simply pushes straight down, just like the spring on a pen. Fixed it though, so it was an👌video.

@cassidyheid6594 Месяц назад

Thank you, I always assumed these were done once that clip popped out

@sp1977 Год назад

Thank you. You helped me fix the carabiner that hung up my Bluetooth speaker.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I put my key ring on it and thought I lost them due to the carabiner being broken. Now it's all fixed.Thanks.

@thepeppanugget3594 9 месяцев назад

Thank you so much, I was speculating that it was the small thread sticking out which was the cause of my non closing climbing hook but I wasn’t sure and the spring wasn’t going in

@rambakbabi9945 4 года назад

Thanks man my snap hook keychain has broken for 2 years but i never figured out to search on RU-vid. Thank You so much Liked✓

@salamander337 Год назад

Thanks man, I just dropped my JBL Clip 3 and the carabiner clip popped out. Even tho it's a different design, you showed me they all worked the same way. All I needed was to figured out where all the pieces fit together and it's fixed.

@scottsen2128 Год назад

Thanks! I simply will not let myself throw out or replace something that I think can be fixed!

@yolandablock6953 Месяц назад

@SplitThump Год назад

I wasn’t good at doing this at all. Literally just slipped and stabbed my self in the hand with the flat head screwdriver. I’ll just appreciate people being able to do this, as for my favorite Oakley Carbiner to the landfill you go! 😢

@loriblack5785 6 месяцев назад

oh man, thanks for this... I have a designer EERA bag with a carabiner like this and yea the spring quit working and the little metal piece slipped out. The brand wants $73 for shipping?! from Milan for a replacement. Gonna try this tomorrow.

@loriblack5785 6 месяцев назад

Thank you!!!! It worked just like your video... didn't seem like little metal bit was going to go back in but then it did. The spring gate works again great in my neon orange plastic caribiner for my boogie handbag.

@juniorfelix4877 4 года назад

Worked for me!! Thank you for posting video.

@cassiesevigny 4 года назад

Pretty close to what I suspected, thanks! One concern though - if the spring was able to slip out before, and the metal of the carabiner is getting worn, isn't it likely to pop/slip out again?

@ActinOut 4 года назад

Yes, I'm sure the more the ledge that holds the spring in gets worn over time, or the spring gets too damaged, the more likely it is to slip out. However, depending on how intensive the carabiner is used, I would think that ledge should last for some time. It should last for a long time though (years) because the outside part of the ledge is protected from wear by the gate and gate hinge parts. Both the bottom of the gate and the gate hinge area would need to be worn down for the ledge to get wear from the outside too. If the ledge gets too worn from the inside because the spring keeps popping out and repeated repairs, the gate can be opened and, if there's still plenty of carabiner material remaining, a Dremel tool or fine file could be used to grind out another ledge. However, in that case, one would likely need to make another (longer) gate spring. This video shows how to make another spring: (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DAoW2jHcr8Y.html) Personally, I'd probably just get another carabiner, but I know some DIY or MacGyver type people or people in a pinch situation could be benefited by knowing how to do this. Carabiner problems like this can be a common occurrence in the backcountry where one cannot simply buy another. Good question! Thanks for watching and the comment!
