Perry Fire Door Butt Hinge - 100mm - Silver

These hinges are made of mild steel and are primarily designed for internal fire doors; they may corrode if used outdoors without proper maintenance.

Yes, to achieve the certified 1-hour fire rating, you must install these hinges with the correct intumescent hinge pads.

They are tested to BS EN1634 standards for 1 hour of fire protection on timber doors.

While they can be physically attached, fire-rated hardware is intended for use with solid timber fire doors to ensure the complete door assembly meets safety regulations.

Standard practice for most fire doors is three hinges per door to support the weight and maintain the door's seal during a fire.

Check that the mortises are deep enough and that the hinges are aligned perfectly vertically.

Verify that all screws are fully tightened and ensure you are using the correct screw gauge for the door's weight.
