TYPES OF HYDRAULIC HINGES Hydraulic hinges which can close automatically a door and firmly hold the door at a certain open position without any conventional door closer or door checking device. CORNER HINGES These are typically used on metal cabinets and machine covers and sit flush to the surface. To prevent tampering, they’re mounted internally, though external metal corner hinges - usually used on machines – are an exception. Corner hinges contain a pin that you can take out when the door is open. This, in turn, allows you to remove the door for maintenance or access. LIFT-OFF HINGES Think of heavy doors in frequent use. For applications like this, you want lift-off hinges that simplify the removal of doors to parts of HVAC system or industrial generator parts, when you need easy access to maintenance and repair. These are also known as door-removal hinges. Stainless steel lift off hinges, in particular, will give you a long service life. OFFSET HINGES A 90-degree offset corner hinge is an example. Offset hinges help when manoeuvring through narrow doorways. With offset hinges, also known as swing-clear hinges, you can open the door so that it’s out of the way, giving you complete access to the entire width of the doorway. Without them, you’d need to create a larger opening and install a larger door. LEAF HINGES Concealed mounting screws prevent external access to the hinge, making it ideal when security matters. Leaf hinges suit plain/flush-mounted doors and left- and right-handed applications. CONCEALED HINGES Concealed cabinet hinges types are widely used. These are installed inside enclosures such as an outdoor telecom equipment cabinet to stop anyone from tampering with them from the outside. Aesthetically, concealed hinges provide a minimalist look and feel by not showing any hardware. Keeping your enclosures, cabinets, HVAC and industrial units secure and safe.
