Hinges Drilled for Projection

  The ‘P’ symbol shown next to various hinges throughout the price list highlights our Projection Hinges. These are drilled with holes towards the edge of a broad hinge leaf enabling the hinge to clear obstructions when fully open beyond 90º.
  It is recommended that the backset should not be less than 12mm
(14mm if using an intumescent strip).
  When a door is to be opened beyond 90º the width of a hinge can be calculated as follows:
Door thickness plus inset (Normally 1/8” 3.2mm) less backset.
Double this and add clearance required.
