FAQs
Do these hinges require any cutting into the door or frame?
No, these are flush hinges and are designed to sit flush with the surface without requiring any cutting or mortising into the door or frame.
What is the maximum weight these hinges can support?
These hinges are designed for light internal doors and cabinets, with a maximum door weight capacity of 10kg per pair.
What type of screws should I use?
The recommended screw diameter is 3.5mm, which corresponds to a No. 6 gauge screw.
Are these hinges suitable for exterior doors or bathrooms?
These hinges have a corrosion rating of 2, meaning they are suitable for occasionally damp/wet, rural, and sheltered areas. They are not recommended for high-humidity environments like bathrooms or exposed exterior locations.
Can I use these for a door that overlaps another door?
Yes, the design of the hinge knuckle being flush with the back of the hinge leaf makes them a popular choice for lay-over door applications.
What is the finish of these hinges?
The hinges have a zinc finish, providing a silver appearance and moderate corrosion resistance.
Troubleshooting
Hinge squeaking
Apply a small amount of lubricant, such as graphite powder or silicone spray, to the hinge knuckle. Avoid oil-based lubricants which can attract dust.
Door not closing properly
Check that both hinges are securely fastened and aligned. Ensure there are no obstructions. Verify the door weight does not exceed the 10kg limit.
Hinge feels loose
Tighten the screws securing the hinge to the door and frame. If the screw holes are stripped, consider using slightly larger screws or wood filler.
