GENERAL INFORMATION

NOTES:1. All hinges or pivots, except spring hinges, shall be of the ball

bearing type. Hinges or pivots employing other anti-friction bearing surfaces shall be permitted if they meet the requirements of ANSI A156.1, Standard for Butts and Hinges. Spring hinges shall be labeled.

2. Hinges 41/2” (114mm) high, 0.180” (4.57mm) thick shall be permitted for use on wide and heavy doors or doors that are subjected to heavy uses.

3. Some manufacturers can provide fire doors with hinges of lighter weight that are not of the ball bearing type where they are part of a listed assembly and meet the requirements of ANSI A156.1, Standard for Butts and Hinges, and have been tested to a minimum of 350,000 cycles.

4. Pivot sets made up of components that are smaller or of a lighter gauge, provided they meet the requirements of ANSI A156.4, Door Controls (Closers) and are in accordance with the manufacturer’s label service procedures.

DETERMINE THE SIZE OF HINGEThe first thing to find is the height of the hinge. Follow the examples below. These are examples only.

The Full Mortise hinges are there two dimensions, suchas a 41/2” x 41/2” (114 x 114 mm). The first dimension indicatesthe height and the second dimension indicates the width when thehinge is in the open position.

DETERMINE TYPE OF HINGE

•What isthedoormaterial(wood,stainless,fiberglass,orhollowmetal)?

• What is the frame material (wood, stainless steel, channel iron, or hollow metal)?

Hinges are manufactured in accordance with ANSI/BHMA A156.1. Self- closing hinges and pivots are in accordance with ANSI/BHMA A156.17 using three hinges per opening on a 3’0” x 7’0” x 1 3/4” (91x213 x 4.4 cm) door.

Full mortise - Both leaves are mortised one leaf in the door and one leaf in the frame (wood door or hollow metal door with wood frame or hollow metal frame).Example: - SPX2BB5191, 4 1/2 (114 x 114mm), US32D

SELECT THE PROPER WEIGHT AND BEARING STRUCTURE

Hinges are placed into three groups because of the various door sizes and weights:

Heavy Duty- Ball BearingExample –– SPX4BB5191, 5” x 5” (127 x 127 mm), US32DStandard Weight –– Ball BearingExample –– SPXBB5191, 41/2” x 41/2” (114 x 114 mm), US32DStandard Weight –– Plain BearingExample –– SPXBB5191, 4 1/2” x 4” (114 x 102 mm), US32D

There are two factors that determine the weight and structure of the hinge: weight of the door and frequency of use. It is advisable to include the approximate weight of additional hardware that will be installed on the door.

Underwriter’sLaboratoriesdoesnotspecificallyapply UL listing to hinges. Instead, their Builders Product Directory refers to NFPA80 Standard for Fire Doors and Fire Windows 1999 Edition, listed below.

Doors up to 60” (1.52 m) in height shall be provided with two hinges and an additional hinge for each additional 30” (0.76 m). Where spring hinges are used, at least two shall be provided.

Once these dimensions are known, the formula can then be applied. Take the door thickness, minus the backset, times two, plus the clearance required. If the hinge size is not standard, then go to the next larger hinge width. If the width of the hinge is greater than the height of the hinge (example: 41/2” x 6” (114 x 152 mm) this is referred to as a Wide Throw Hinge. This would apply only to full mortise hinges.

Antimicrobial ProtectionSimplex full line of US32D Stainless Steel Architectural Grade Hinges are available with Saniguard Antimicrobial protection.

Simplex uses a Saniguard coat process to apply the antimicrobial treated coating to guarantee durability and protection. Antimicrobial resistance on products is affected by moisture in the air. Silver ions interact with humidity and are released creating clear surface.

DETERMINE TYPE OF MATERIALSteel — This has great strength but it is a corrosive material. If theatmosphere that steel is used in is not stable, steel will begin to rust. The best application for steel is in a controlled environment, such as inside a building where the temperature and humidity are controlled.

Stainless Steel — This also has great strength. It is rust resistant and can be polished to a satin or bright finish. For highly corrosive areas, 316 grade may be recommended.Simplex standard grade stainless steel is 304L.

Brass — This material is noncorrosive, rust resistant, and very decorative. However, it has less strength than the steel or stainless steel material. Brass is often used where appearance is of great concern as it may be polished and plated in various finishes. Both steel and stainless steel hinges may be used on listed fire rated or labeled door openings. Brass material may not be used on fire rated or labeled openings because of the low melting point.

DETERMINE TYPE OF FINISHAll steel and brass material hinges can be plated to match the available finishes that are listed in the American National Standards Institute, standard ANSI/BHMA A156.18 Materials and Finishes.

Special Rust-Resisting FinishesWhen using steel base material hinges, special finishing processescan be provided that will afford additional protection to the product.A nickel undercoat may be applied prior to plating. Although this will give added protection and is considered rust-resistant, it is not to be considered rust-proof. If a true rust-resisting hinge is needed, consider using a non-ferrous metal such as brass or stainless steel.DOOR

There are three dimensions to know in order to determine the minimum width of the hinge: door thickness, backset and clearance required.1. When figuring the calculations for a wood door and wood frame,

the door is flush with the casing or face of the frame. When figuring the calculations for a wood or metal door with a hollow metal frame, the door is inset approximately 1/8” (3.2 mm).

2. For doors up to 2 1/4” (57 mm) thick, the hinge is set back 1/4” (6.4mm) from the back face of the door.

3. For doors over 2 1/4” (57 mm) thick, the hinge is set back 3/8” (9.5 mm) from the back face of the door.

SWAGING

Swaging is a slight offset of the hinge leaf at the barrel. This is offset permits the leaves to come closer together when the door is in the closed position. If the hinge were to be left in the natural state after the knuckle was rolled, the hinge would be referred to as a “flatback“. A flatback hinge has a gap between the leaves of approximately 5/16” (7.9 mm). This would allow heat and air-conditioning to escape, not to mention the unsightly gap between the door and frame.

The swaging on standard weight and heavy weight full mortise hinges provides 1/16” (1.6 mm) clearance between the leaves when the leaves are in the closed position. Full mortise hinges used on beveled doors will affect lockside clearance, especially for wide throw applications.

GUIDELINES FOR ARCHITECTURAL HINGE METAL

1. Interior doors or non-corrosive areas use: Plated or painted steel2. Interior labeled door use: Plated or Painted Steel, Stainless Steel3. Interior doors in corrosive areas use: Stainless Steel, Brass, Bronze4. Exterior doors use: Stainless Steel, Brass, Bronze

Top hinge 5” from jamb rabbet to top of barrel

Bottom hinge 10” from bottom edge of barrel to finished floor

Third hinge centered between top and bottom hinges

Note: Certain Western states use a standard 7” from top and 11” from the bottom
