Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These hinges are designed for installation on doors that do *not* have a rebate. This means the edge of the door is straight and flat, without a groove. The hinge mechanism will be mortised into both the door edge and the door frame. Precise measurement and routing are critical for proper installation and function. Always ensure the door and frame are capable of supporting the weight and dimensions of the hinge.
Compatibility:
- Door Type: Best suited for solid wood or composite doors without pre-existing rebates.
- Frame Type: Compatible with standard door frames, provided a mortise can be accurately cut.
- Finish Matching: The matt nickel finish complements other hardware in similar tones.
Care:
- Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the matt nickel finish.
- Regularly check that screws remain tight, especially after the initial installation period.
- Ensure no obstructions prevent the full swing of the door, which could stress the hinges.
