This Loops 2x 160 x 32mm Concealed Heavy Duty Hinge in Bronze is designed for homeowners and builders seeking robust and discreet door hardware for unrebated doors. Its key benefit is providing strong support while maintaining a clean aesthetic due to its concealed nature. A caveat to consider is that this pack contains two hinges, and they are specifically for doors that do not have a rebate.

Unrebated doors are doors that have a straight edge and meet the door frame directly without any overlap or groove. The hinge must sit flush within the door and frame.
The product description does not specify if screws are included. It is recommended to use appropriate screws suitable for your door and frame material, typically wood screws.
No, these hinges are specifically designed for unrebated doors and will not function correctly or provide a flush fit on a rebated door.
Clean with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap and water solution, then dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
While the brass plating offers some corrosion resistance, these hinges are primarily designed for internal doors. For external applications, consider hinges specifically rated for outdoor use.
The 'Heavy Duty' designation suggests they can support substantial weight, but specific weight ratings are not provided. Consult with a professional if installing on very heavy doors.
Ensure hinges are correctly mortised and aligned. Check for any obstructions or warping in the door or frame. Verify that the correct type of door (unrebated) is being used.
Apply a small amount of appropriate lubricant (e.g., silicone spray or light machine oil) to the hinge pin and joints. Avoid over-lubrication.
Check that all mounting screws are securely tightened. If screws do not hold, the mortise may be too large, requiring repair or a shim.
Clean the hinges with a soft cloth and a mild soap solution, then dry thoroughly. Avoid contact with moisture and harsh chemicals.
Setup: Installation requires precise mortising into both the door and the frame to accommodate the hinge leaves. Ensure the door and frame are prepared for unrebated doors. The hinges should be mounted securely with appropriate screws (not included).
Compatibility: These hinges are designed exclusively for unrebated doors. They are not suitable for rebated doors where a groove is present on the door edge. The 160mm x 32mm size may require specific cutout dimensions, so verify compatibility with your door and frame specifications before purchase.
Care: To maintain the brass-plated bronze finish, clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the plating. For deeper cleaning, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by thorough drying. Regular dusting will help prevent buildup and preserve the finish.
