Key Considerations When Choosing Emtek Door Hinges

• Door Weight and Traffic: For heavy solid-core doors or those in high-traffic commercial settings, opt for stronger materials like heavy-duty steel and consider ball bearing hinges for optimal performance.
• Security Needs: For out-swinging exterior doors, prioritize hinges with non-removable pins (NRP) to prevent unauthorized removal of the door.
• Corner Type: Verify whether your door and frame mortises have square or radius (rounded) corners to ensure the hinges fit perfectly without additional modification.
• Finish Integration: Select an Emtek hinge finish that precisely matches or beautifully complements your Emtek door levers, knobs, or handlesets for a truly coordinated architectural hardware statement.
• Quantity Per Door: Standard doors typically require three hinges. Taller or heavier doors may benefit from four or even five hinges for proper support and to prevent sagging.

Frequently Asked Questions About Emtek Door Hinges

Q: How does Emtek's quality distinguish their door hinges from others?

A: Emtek's door hinges are set apart by their **solid material construction** (premium brass or heavy-duty steel), precision engineering for smooth operation, and meticulous hand-finishing in the USA. This commitment ensures exceptional durability, consistent finish quality that matches their other hardware, and a superior aesthetic compared to mass-produced alternatives.

Q: Are Emtek door hinges suitable for exterior doors?

A: Yes, Emtek offers door hinges specifically suited for exterior applications. For enhanced weather resistance, consider hinges made from **solid brass** or **stainless steel**. For added security on out-swinging exterior doors, look for Emtek hinges with a **Non-Removable Pin (NRP)** feature.

Q: What's the difference between square and radius corner hinges for Emtek?

A: The difference lies in the shape of the hinge's corners where it fits into the door and frame. **Square corner hinges** have sharp, 90-degree corners, requiring a precise, square mortise. **Radius corner hinges** have slightly rounded corners, which are common for doors pre-machined with a router, offering easier installation if your existing mortises are rounded.

Q: Can Emtek door hinges help prevent door squeaks?

A: Yes, Emtek hinges are designed for smooth, quiet operation. Their precision engineering minimizes friction. For the best performance, especially on heavier or frequently used doors, Emtek's **ball bearing hinges** are highly effective at preventing squeaks by ensuring continuous, frictionless movement.

Q: Do Emtek hinges come with matching screws?

A: Yes. All Emtek door hinges typically come with matching wood screws, colored and finished to perfectly complement the hinge itself. This ensures a consistent and professional aesthetic upon installation without the need to source separate hardware.
