4 Inch Self Closing Door Hinges Satisfy Many Residential Uses

Generally, newer construction over the past decade uses round radius hinge corners on the door and square corners on the frame side. Waterson provides the 4” height leaf size with 1/4” or ⅝” corners with zig-zag or architectural arch patterns for easily fitting these modern residential specs. Thus, Waterson hinges can be easily adapted to current patterns.

Moreover, Waterson also provides highly effective self-closing functionality that helps to satisfy fire rated garage doors and fire rated apartment complex entries. Waterson’s 4-inch self closing spring door hinge meets ADA requirements, making heavy door use easy and safe. This best-in-business hardware item boasts adjustable speed to prevent slamming, making it the ideal product for residential corners and exterior doors. The self-closing spring hinge ships globally, ensuring meeting ADA’s 5-second closing time – a need for safety in homes with children or the elderly.Waterson  4 inch door hinges are perfect for your business needs.

Waterson offers adjustability features that most hinge companies do not, but everyday users may want, such as “hold open.” The hold-open feature stops doors in place exclusively at 90 degrees. When you open doors with Waterson hinges to 90 degrees, they will stay in that position without moving.

Spring-loaded, 4-inch self-closing door hinges enable doors to swing beyond 90 degrees but self-close beyond the perpendicular. This feature works excellently when bringing groceries or supplies into your home. However, it must be noted that fire-rated garage doors cannot have a hold-open feature as per regulations. It’s up to the homeowner to make his final decision.
