This primarily depends on the weight and size of the door you are hanging. Doors used in public buildings are generally larger and heavier than those used around the home and require stronger hinges to facilitate the extra weight. Internal doors around the home are generally hollow and in this situation using a pair of hinges will normally be sufficient, but for particularly heavy (over 20kg) or frequently used doors, fitting three hinges is recommended.

You should always try to use screws that match the material of the hinge you are using, i.e. brass screws with brass hinges. If for example you use two different metals such as aluminium screws with brass hinges, the two dissimilar metals coming into contact will cause corrosion. This is because a small electric current passes from one metal to the other causing a chemical reaction.

When a door is required to open up to 180? it usually needs to clear a projection such as the architrave around the door frame. In this situation you would use either "projection" or "parliament" hinges (difference explained below). The screw holes on these hinges are lined towards the edge of the hinge flap and so when fitted, the knuckle projects beyond the edge of the door. The further the projection, the greater the angle of opening achieved.

A We provide 3 flag hinges to each door leaf as standard on our french doors which allow simple adjustment using an allen key for vertical, horizontal and compression adjustment.

The CA hinges work wonderfully — if used properly, they have minimal gap, require little effort in installation, and are super strong and durable. Things to remember: Never just slop a hobby knife in to make a slot. Always clean out the left over wood to get a good socket. Don't over-enlarge the hole or the hinge will not fit snuggly and get a good gluing surface. The Slot Machine will cut perfect slots for you every time.

No. All that is needed is 1 inch on the top and 1 inch on each side for mounting . Our screens have 1 inch of hook fastener double stitched across the top and on both sides. If your opening is substantially shorter or narrower, you may have to add wood to you door framing, however, this is seldom needed.

We recommend that you use the existing screws as these should be the correct pitch and length to re-tighten. If the screw thread will not tighten it is possible to use repairs screws that can be purchased from the website under Accessories. Under no circumstances use a screw from a DIY outlet without the correct specification being observed. The wrong screws can lead to corrosion.

A chandelier should be chosen based on the width of the foyer, the ceiling height and any architectural details, such as double doors, or a window above the door. A general rule is the chandelier width should be at least the same size in inches as the diagonal measurement of the room in feet.

Roller locks are used to fix the last canopy section (next to the house) in a permanently extended position. This keeps the canopy from retracting against the house to allow for clearance of existing obstacles. Additional roller locks should be requested when ordering. A grommet hole will be added to the last panel of the canopy to allow for rain drainage (additional charge of $5 for each canopy with extra roller locks and drainage hole).

The most common type of hinge used for hanging doors around the home is the "butt hinge". They are available in many different materials and finishes including brass, chrome, plain steel, stainless steel, aluminium and cast iron. Some "soft metal" hinges, such as brass, are available with stainless steel or phosphor bronze washers between the knuckle joints. This increases their life, especially where the door is regularly used.

For coastal cruising, the simple answer is whatever boat strikes your fancy and satisfies your budget. People who strain their budget to buy expensive boats don't tend to use them that much, because they're busy earning money to keep both their boat and other aspects of their lifestyle afloat.

Measure the width of the dog's shoulders and the height of the shoulders, when the dog is standing (to the nearest half inch). Then add one inch to each of these measurements and adjust the door opening accordingly. The height is measured from the floor of the dog house to the bottom of the finished door opening, and the width is measured from the finished inside edges of the opening.

Pets such as cats under 7 lbs or toy breed dogs, such as Bichon Frise, Chihuahua, and Maltese can use the small size, the medium door can accommodate a dog the size of a Beagle, Brittany, or a Welsh Terrier or a cat over 7 lbs.

For 2100 and 3300 Series doors specify exact finished opening size only.
