Noiseless Self Closing Swing Door Hinges

Counter doors are popular in some workplaces, such as courtrooms, bank offices, factories, and even kindergartens. Sometimes, these commercial applications require swing door hinges with self-closing features. For example, half doors can provide security on playgrounds and keep small children safe by preventing them from freely coming and going. Additionally, the existence of anti-slamming ensures that no kids get hurt. No slamming also benefits courtrooms, where quiet is essential.

Swing Door Hinges: Perfect Product for Half Doors

Traditional door hinges can’t accommodate half-door applications. Moreover, spring hinges tend to cause counter doors to close fast and dangerously. Heavy-duty swing door hinges, on the other hand, are perfect for half doors because of their adjustable speed control and noiseless features, making them an attractive and effective solution.

Some key features include:

• ADA Door Clearance: ADA-compliant doors provide a clear opening width of at least 32 inches when the door is open to 90 degrees.
• Speed Adjustment: Equipped with 3 speed control settings for safe, controlled closing.
• Hydraulic Hinge: Uses an oil-controlled dynamic braking system to improve performance.
• ADA Compliance: Meets ADA requirements for slow closing, aiding accessibility for disabled individuals and young children.
• Hold Open: Stop doors securely at 85-90 degrees to prevent doors from slamming; not suitable for fire-rated doors due to safety regulations.
