FAQs

Are these hinges suitable for external fire doors?

These hinges are primarily designed for internal fire-rated timber doors. Consult local building regulations before external use.

Do I really need intumescent hinge pads?

Yes, to meet BS EN1634 standards and ensure the fire rating is valid, intumescent pads are required.

Can these be used on hollow-core doors?

These are intended for heavy-duty timber doors. They may be overkill for lightweight hollow-core doors, which are typically not fire-rated.

What is the weight capacity per hinge?

The hinges are rated for standard fire-door weights; typically, three hinges are recommended per door to ensure stability.

How do I clean the silver finish?

Use a soft, dry lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or strong solvents.

Troubleshooting

Door is sagging after installation

Check that the hinges are flush with the mortise and all screws are fully tightened. Ensure the hinge pads are not preventing a flush fit.

Hinge is squeaking during operation

Apply a light, non-greasy lubricant to the pin area, ensuring no lubricant leaks onto the intumescent pads.

Difficulty closing the door correctly

Verify that the door, frame, and hinges are perfectly aligned; check for debris in the mortise gaps.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets strict BS EN1634 fire safety standards
  • Certified for 1-hour fire resistance
  • Robust build quality for heavy timber doors
  • Professional silver finish suitable for most interiors

Cons

  • Requires intumescent hinge pads for fire rating compliance
  • Not suitable for non-timber door types
  • Limited to specific fire-door applications only

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Ensure the door and frame are pre-drilled to the correct depth to avoid splitting the timber.
  2. Intumescent Protection: You must place intumescent hinge pads between the hinge leaf and the timber door/frame to maintain the integrity of the fire rating.
  3. Alignment: Use a chisel to ensure the hinge sits flush within the mortise, as gaps can compromise fire performance.
  4. Maintenance: Regularly check that the screws are tightened and there is no sagging. Periodically clean the silver finish with a soft, dry cloth to prevent oxidation; avoid harsh chemicals that may strip the protective coating.
