How many hinges are included in a pair?

A pair includes two hinges.

Can I use these hinges on a 30-minute fire door?

Yes, they are tested and certified for use on 30/60 minute fire doors, provided that three hinges are installed per door and intumescent hinge pads are used.

Do I need to lubricate the ball bearing mechanism?

No, the ball bearing mechanism is designed for maintenance-free operation and does not require lubrication.

What is the warranty period for these hinges?

Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's website for specific warranty information, as it is not detailed in the provided product description.

How do I clean the polished chrome finish?

Troubleshooting

Hinge squeaking after installation

Ensure the hinge pin is fully seated and that there are no obstructions. While designed for silent operation, check for any debris within the ball bearing mechanism. If the issue persists, the hinge may need replacement.

Door not closing smoothly

Verify that all hinges are correctly aligned and securely fastened. Check for any warping in the door or frame, or obstructions preventing the door from closing properly. Ensure the door weight does not exceed the 40kg limit.

Loose hinge screws

Tighten the screws gently. If the screw holes are stripped, consider using longer screws or wood filler and re-drilling to ensure a secure fit.

Fire rating compromised

Confirm that exactly three hinges are installed on the fire door and that certified intumescent hinge pads have been correctly applied according to manufacturer instructions.
