The Timco Fixed Pin Butt Hinge is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking for a reliable hardware solution for light-duty internal doors. These bronze-finished hinges provide stable support and smooth operation for doors weighing up to 30kg, making them an excellent choice for bedroom or pantry doors. While they are built with durability in mind for sheltered environments, users should note that they are not rated for heavy-duty exterior security doors or high-traffic commercial entryways.

These hinges are designed to support a maximum door weight of 30kg.
They are suitable for sheltered or rural areas with occasional damp exposure, but they are not designed for direct weather exposure or high-security exterior use.
This pack includes 2 hinges; please check the specific retailer packaging, as mounting screws are typically sold separately to accommodate various wood types.
The hinge leaf has a thickness of 1.7mm.
No, these are fixed pin hinges and are designed for a permanent installation, which provides added security.
Use a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals to prevent damage to the finish.
Check that the mortise depth is sufficient; if the hinge is not flush, the door will bind against the frame.
Apply a small amount of light machine oil or silicone lubricant to the hinge knuckle.
Ensure you are using the correct screw length and size for your frame material; if the wood is stripped, use wood filler and re-drill the pilot holes.
To install these hinges, first measure and mark the hinge positions on the door edge and frame. Use a sharp chisel to create a shallow recess (mortise) that matches the 1.7mm thickness of the hinge leaf to ensure the door sits flush against the frame. Align the hinge and secure it using high-quality screws compatible with the 6.00mm diameter holes. For care and maintenance, wipe the bronze finish periodically with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. If the hinges begin to squeak, a small drop of silicone-based lubricant applied to the knuckle will restore silent operation. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can strip or tarnish the bronze coating.
