FAQs
What material is this hinge made from?
The hinge is made from stainless steel, which provides excellent durability and rust resistance.
Is this hinge suitable for all types of windows?
This hinge is specifically designed for casement window series with a 23-groove system. It is suitable for inner opening, outer opening, and European groove types.
How do I clean and maintain the hinge?
Clean the hinge with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents. A light lubricant can be used if stiffness occurs.
What does 'professional deburring treatment' mean?
This refers to a finishing process where the edges of the hinge are smoothed to remove any sharp or rough spots, ensuring a safer and more refined feel.
Can this hinge be used in bathrooms or kitchens?
Yes, the stainless steel construction makes it resistant to rust, making it suitable for environments with moisture like bathrooms and kitchens.
What is the significance of the '23 grooves'?
The 23 grooves refer to the specific design pattern required for secure and precise installation onto the window frame and sash.
Does the hinge allow for full 180-degree opening?
This is a 90-degree concealed hinge, meaning it is designed to open to a 90-degree angle and remains concealed when closed.
Troubleshooting
Hinge feels stiff or noisy
Ensure the hinge is properly aligned and free of debris. Apply a small amount of suitable lubricant to moving parts if necessary. Check for any obstructions in the window's opening mechanism.
Window does not close properly
Verify that the hinge is correctly installed and that all screws are tight. Check for any warping of the window frame or sash, or obstructions preventing full closure.
Signs of corrosion or rust
While made of stainless steel, prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or very corrosive environments could still cause issues. Clean the affected area with a mild detergent and water, then dry thoroughly. Avoid future exposure to harsh cleaning agents.
Hinge appears loose or wobbly
Re-tighten all mounting screws. Ensure the hinge is seated correctly within its intended grooves and that the surrounding frame material is sound.
