For over 40 years, we've helped design lovers transform houses into homes with customizable door and cabinet hardware. Customizing the details of your doors, cabinets, drawers, and closets expands far beyond defining how you can open, close, and secure a space. Each moment is an opportunity to express your taste and invite others to experience your home as only you can imagine it––like a handshake from your home as they enter. Make each choice a statement, your statement.
Description
Heavy-Duty Hinges
- Built to handle substantial weight and high traffic. Commonly used in commercial and industrial settings where doors are larger, thicker, and subjected to constant use and abuse.
- Constructed with durability in mind first. Often made from stronger materials, have reinforced components, and are designed to withstand the wear and tear of high-traffic environments.
- Typically made from tougher materials like stainless steel or other alloys. Design focuses more on strength and durability than aesthetics.
- Find applications in commercial and industrial settings, such as schools, hospitals, warehouses, and industrial facilities, where doors are larger, heavier, and experience frequent use.
Plain Bearing Hinges
- A simple and cost-effective design. Consist of a simple, unsealed, and non-friction-reducing pin that rotates within the hinge knuckles. Design does not incorporate any additional bearings or mechanisms to reduce friction.
- Do not provide the same level of smooth operation and long-term durability as ball bearing hinges. More susceptible to wear and friction, which can lead to squeaking.
- Generally suitable for doors with standard weight and usage. Often used in residential and light commercial applications.
- May require more frequent maintenance, such as lubrication, to prevent wear and ensure smooth operation
