Product Information

Full details

The Timco Solid Drawn Hinge is designed for cabinet makers, joiners, and DIY enthusiasts who require a durable, high-quality hardware solution for cupboard and cabinet doors. Its primary benefit is the solid drawn brass construction and brass pin assembly, which provides exceptional rust resistance and longevity, even in moderate salt atmospheres. While it is perfect for high-specification joinery, users should note that its small size and 1.45 mm thickness are specifically engineered for light-duty applications rather than heavy-duty exterior doors.

FAQs

Can these hinges be used outdoors?

They are suitable for moderate salt atmospheres but are designed primarily for light cabinet doors rather than heavy exterior entry doors.

What is the thickness of the hinge leaf?

The hinge leaf thickness is 1.45 mm.

Do I need to buy screws separately?

No, the package includes all necessary fixings for installation.

What size screw should I use?

The recommended screw gauge for these hinges is 4.

What is the diameter of the screw hole?

The screw hole diameter is 3.7 mm.

Are these hinges self-closing?

No, these are standard plain knuckle hinges and do not feature self-closing mechanisms.

Troubleshooting

Hinge is binding or not closing flush

Check that the mortise depth is exactly 1.45 mm and that the square corners are clean of debris.

Screws are stripping the wood

Ensure you are using the correct number 4 gauge screw and consider applying a small amount of wood glue to the pilot hole if the wood is soft.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality solid brass construction
  • Excellent resistance to rust and corrosion
  • Includes all necessary installation fixings
  • Sleek and professional aesthetic
  • Durable enough for moderate salt environments

Cons

  • Not suitable for heavy-duty doors
  • Small dimensions limit use to cabinetry
  • Requires careful alignment for square corners

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal installation, ensure the hinge is recessed to the exact thickness of 1.45 mm to ensure the door sits flush against the frame. Use the provided fixings with a number 4 gauge screw. When installing, pre-drill the 3.7 mm holes to prevent splitting the timber. To maintain the bronze finish, clean periodically with a dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could strip the protective metal coating. Regularly check that the screws remain tight to prevent undue stress on the knuckle.
