Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a butt hinge, a concealed hinge, and a pivot hinge?
A butt hinge is mounted on the door edge and frame and is partially visible, a concealed hinge is mortised into the door edge and frame so it disappears when closed, and a pivot hinge relocates the swing axis to top and bottom points off the door edge. Casson Hardware carries all three formats from TECTUS, Sugatsune, and FritsJurgens.
How do I size hinges for a residential door?
Hinge size is selected based on door height, weight, and thickness — typical residential doors require three hinges sized between 3.5 and 4 inches. Casson Hardware lists exact dimensions, weight ratings, and recommended quantities on every hinge product page.
Are concealed hinges suitable for fire-rated doors?
Specific TECTUS and Sugatsune concealed hinge models are certified for fire-rated assemblies. Casson Hardware confirms fire rating and certification details on each applicable product page.
What weight of door can a TECTUS concealed hinge support?
