Hinge Height:
The appropriate hinge height for any job is dependent upon the door width, thickness and weight. The height of the hinge is the length of the flap, not including the tips of the pin, as shown in the diagram.
Hinge Width:
The door thickness and door jamb width (also trim size if applicable) determine the width of the hinge required. The width is measured across the leaves when the hinge is fully opened as shown in the diagram.
Fixing Screws:
Each butt hinge is supplied with the appropriate sized wood screws. Metal door screws are optional
- 8 Gauge screws for 76mm width hinges
- 10 Gauge screws for 102mm and greater width hinges
