FAQs
What is the main benefit of the 3D adjustment feature?
The 3D adjustment allows you to fine-tune the door's alignment (height, compression, and lateral position) while the door is closed, making it easy to achieve a perfect fit without needing to remove the door from its hinges.
Can this hinge be used on external doors?
This specific product description indicates suitability for internal doors made of wood or uPVC. It is not specified for external use.
How do I know which size hinge I need?
The hinge is available in sizes from 19mm to 23mm, referring to the rebate size of the door. You need to measure the depth of the rebate on your door and frame to select the correct hinge size.
Is this hinge reversible (non-handed)?
Yes, the hinge features a non-handed design, meaning it can be fitted to both right-hand and left-hand doors without needing to swap pins or make special configurations.
What are the warranty details for this hinge?
The hinge comes with a 5-year finish guarantee and a 10-year mechanical warranty.
What standards does this hinge comply with?
It is compatible with PAS 24:2016 and PAS 24:2022+A1:2024 security standards. It is also corrosion tested to BS EN 1670:2007 Grade 5 and BS EN 1191 compliant.
What maintenance is required?
Generally, no lubrication is required. Cleaning with a soft, damp cloth is sufficient. Periodically check that all screws remain tight.
Troubleshooting
Door does not align correctly after installation.
Use the 3D adjustment screws on the hinge to correct height, lateral, or compression settings. Ensure the hinge is securely fixed to the door and frame.
Hinge squeaks.
While designed for low maintenance, check for any debris lodged in the hinge mechanism. Clean with a damp cloth. Ensure all screws are tight.
Adjustment screws are difficult to turn.
Ensure you are using the correct tool (typically a screwdriver). Check for any obstructions or damage around the screw head. Confirm you are attempting to adjust the correct screw for the desired function (height, compression, or lateral).
Hinge feels loose or wobbly.
Verify that all fixing screws are fully tightened into the door and frame. If the screw holes are stripped, you may need to use larger screws or a wood filler/dowel method for a secure fit.
