FAQs

What size Allen key is needed for adjustments?

A 5mm Allen key is required for all three-way adjustments (up/down, side-to-side, in/out).

Are screws included with the FixRello flag hinge?

No, screws for mounting the hinge to the door and frame are not included and must be sourced separately.

Can this hinge be used on wooden doors?

This hinge is specifically designed for uPVC and composite doors. Its compatibility with wooden doors is not guaranteed.

How much weight can two of these hinges support?

Two FixRello flag hinges can support a maximum weight of 80kg.

What is the purpose of the included rebate bushes?

The rebate bushes are used to ensure a snug fit and proper alignment when the door frame rebate is between 14mm and 24mm.

Is the white finish weather-resistant?

Yes, the white powder-coated finish is rust-resistant and has been tested for 480 hours in salt spray, making it suitable for outdoor use.

How do I know if I need the height packer?

The 4mm height packer is used to make minor vertical adjustments or to compensate for slight unevenness in the frame, assisting in achieving perfect door alignment.

Troubleshooting

Door is still sticking after adjustment.

Ensure the hinge is correctly seated and all adjustment screws are turned appropriately. Check if other hardware on the door, like the lock mechanism, might be causing the issue. Verify you are using the correct size Allen key (5mm).

Hinge pin feels stiff or difficult to turn.

Check for any debris or obstruction around the adjustment points. Lightly lubricate the adjustment screw mechanism if necessary, ensuring not to use excessive amounts that could attract dirt.

Hinge making noise during operation.

This may indicate a need for lubrication or that the hinge is not properly seated. Ensure screws are tight and consider applying a small amount of white lithium grease to the moving parts.

Door sags after installation.

Confirm the hinge is rated for the door's weight and that two hinges are used if supporting a heavy door (up to 80kg total). Ensure the frame and door are structurally sound.
