Product Information

Full details

This Securit Door Hinge in Silver is designed for homeowners and contractors needing a reliable and durable hinge for wooden doors. Its key benefit is providing smooth, secure door operation while conforming to stringent safety standards. A potential caveat is that it requires screw holes for installation, meaning it is not suitable for surface mounting without modification. The hinge is constructed from stainless steel with a polished finish, offering both aesthetic appeal and corrosion resistance.

FAQs

What type of wood is this hinge suitable for?

This hinge is suitable for most types of wooden doors, provided they have been prepared with the necessary screw holes for mounting.

Are screws included with the hinge?

Screws are typically not included with this hinge and must be sourced separately to ensure compatibility with your specific door and frame.

Can this hinge be used for external doors?

Yes, the stainless steel construction offers good resistance to corrosion, making it suitable for external wooden doors, though regular maintenance is advised.

What does 'Certifire Grade 13' mean?

Certifire Grade 13 indicates that the hinge has passed rigorous testing and is suitable for use on fire doors, providing a specific level of fire resistance when installed correctly.

How many hinges do I need per door?

For standard interior wooden doors, two or three hinges are typically recommended. For heavier doors or fire doors, consult specific building regulations or a professional.

Is this hinge reversible?

This information is not provided in the product description. Typically, door hinges are designed to be reversible, but it is best to check the physical hinge for any markings or specific mounting instructions.

Troubleshooting

Hinge squeaks

Apply a small amount of lubricating oil (e.g., WD-40 or silicone spray) to the hinge pin and work the door back and forth.

Door is difficult to close or sticks

Check if the hinge is properly aligned and all screws are tightened. Ensure there are no obstructions or warping in the door or frame.

Hinge appears loose after installation

Verify that the screws are fully tightened and are the correct type and length for the door material. If the screw holes are stripped, consider using wood filler or larger screws.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the door and frame are prepared with appropriately sized screw holes for the hinge.
  2. Position the hinge accurately on the door edge and frame.
  3. Secure the hinge using appropriate screws (not included), ensuring they are long enough to engage firmly with the door and frame.

Compatibility:

Care:
