Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these hinges suitable for external doors?
No, these hinges have a Corrosion Rating of 2 and are specifically designed for internal applications. They are not built to withstand external weather conditions.
What size screws should I use?
The product information suggests using screws with a recommended diameter of 4.0mm, corresponding to an 8-gauge screw. You will need 16 screws per pair.
Can I remove the door easily with these hinges?
These are fixed pin hinges. To remove the door, you would need to unscrew the hinges from either the door or the frame. They are not designed for easy, tool-less removal.
What is the maximum weight capacity per pair?
Each pair of these hinges has a maximum door weight capacity of 30kg.
Are screws included with the hinges?
The product description does not state that screws are included. Typically, screws are sold separately for hinges.
What does 'uncranked' mean for a hinge?
An 'uncranked' hinge means it does not have any offset bends in the hinge leaves, resulting in a flat and flush profile when closed.
How do I clean the zinc finish?
Clean the zinc finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the protective coating.
Troubleshooting
Hinge squeaks or is stiff
Apply a small amount of appropriate lubricant (like graphite powder or a light machine oil) to the hinge pin. Ensure screws are tight.
Door does not hang straight
Check that the hinges are mortised correctly and are perfectly aligned. Loosen screws slightly, adjust alignment, and retighten.
Hinge pin is difficult to insert or remove
Ensure the hinge knuckles are clean and free of debris. If the pin is stuck, a light tap with a hammer might help. For removal, a pin punch can be used.
Visible rust spots on the finish
Clean the affected area gently with a soft cloth. For minor spots, a light application of lubricant might help protect the surface. Consider if the environment exceeds the recommended corrosion rating.
