GENERAL INFORMATION

HOLES

Our standard hole pattern places holes on 3″ and 4″ centers, staggered on each leaf of the hinge. Most common hole sizes are .100, .156, .187 and .250 round.

We are able to provide hinges with plain round, elongated, square, or counter sunk holes to your specifications. A sketch or print should accompany all inquiries and orders requiring special holes, bends, cut-outs, or other special features.

DOUBLE PINNED HINGES

We also manufacture double pinned hinges for all applications. Must be .063 aluminum with .093 or .125 diameter aluminum or stainless steel pin.
