Outside Kitchen Gas Strut Supports
I need to replace the 2 gas struts on the large outside kitchen door, The OEM is rated at 60 lbs each cylinder. I’m thinking of going up to ones rated higher possibly 100 lbs each. Can anyone give me ...

Look at where the struts attach to the door & wall/opening. By varying where these things attach, you can vary the force required to close them. I did that on the struts for the under-bed storage to make the lid stay open after we got a new & heavier mattress.
IIRC, one of the manufacturers or vendors has a great diagram online on installing struts and how/where to attach them.
Sometimes a factory even installs the struts completely wrong. Weak gas struts may not be the problem at all.
