Baldwin 1040031I – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Should I order the Baldwin 1040 with a removable pin or a non-removable pin?
Depends which way the door swings. On an outswing exterior door the hinge barrel ends up on the outside, and a removable pin can be tapped out to lift the door off its hinges, so that opening takes the non-removable pin version. Anything interior, or an inswing door where the barrel is on the secure side, is fine on the removable pin, and the removable pin is the one you want if you expect to pull the door for painting or moving furniture without unscrewing eight screws. Every finish the 1040 comes in is offered both ways, so the pin choice does not limit your finish.
2) Is a 4 x 4 hinge big enough for my door, or do I need 4-1/2 inch?
The 1040 is made in 4 inch by 4 inch only. That size covers standard 1-3/8 inch interior doors and lighter 1-3/4 inch doors, which is the residential range this hinge is meant for. Once you are hanging a solid core or heavy exterior slab, the usual call is 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, and the 1040 will not give you that. Square corner options in the larger size include the Orca Hardware 3535 Series 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch ball bearing hinge and the Deltana CSB45N 4-1/2 inch square hinge, which is the non-removable pin version.
3) Can I put a 4" x 4" radius corner hinge in a mortise cut for a square corner hinge?
No - a radius-corner leaf and a square-corner leaf are cut to different pockets, so the size matching alone is not enough. The Baldwin Reserve 1040 has square corners, while Orca Hardware's 4014 Series is 4" x 4" with a 1/4" radius corner, Delaney's exterior residential hinge is 4" x 4" with a 5/8" radius, and Deltana's DE44R5TA is a 4" x 4" x 5/8" radius steel security hinge sold in pairs. A radius leaf dropped into a square pocket leaves the corners open, and a square leaf will not seat in a router-cut radius pocket without re-chiseling the corners.
4) The Baldwin Reserve 1040 is a residential hinge - what carries a commercial traffic door instead?
Baldwin lists the Reserve 1040 for residential use, so an entry that cycles all day is usually specified with a bearing hinge from a commercial line. Staying at the same 4" x 4" square corner opening, Delaney's CH401X is a commercial ball bearing hinge with square corners. If the frame can take a larger leaf, Orca Hardware's 3535 Series is a 4-1/2" x 4-1/2" square corner ball bearing commercial hinge rated medium duty, and Ives 3CB1HW is a steel heavy weight concealed bearing full mortise hinge with 3 knuckles rated heavy duty. Moving to 4-1/2" changes the mortise, so confirm the frame prep before you switch sizes.
5) Which hinges offer a non-removable pin for an out-swing exterior door?
The Baldwin Reserve 1040 is ordered in either a removable pin or a non-removable pin version, so the security option is a pin-style choice rather than a different model. Across brands, Deltana's CSB45N is a 4-1/2" x 4-1/2" square hinge sold in pairs with a non-removable pin, and Hager's BB1168 NRP is a non-removable pin full mortise ball bearing hinge rated heavy duty. Deltana's DE44R5TA is a 4" x 4" x 5/8" radius steel security hinge in pairs, though its radius corner means a different mortise than a square-cornered opening.
6) Do Baldwin 1040 hinges come with screws, and will they work on a metal frame?
Screws are in the box: eight #12 flat head Phillips wood screws per hinge, poly-bagged with it. Nothing else to buy for a wood door in a wood jamb. Those are wood screws, though, so a hollow metal frame is the wrong application here. Hollow metal prep uses machine screws into tapped holes, and a commercial hinge like the Ives 3CB1 concealed bearing full mortise or the Delaney 4 inch by 4 inch commercial ball bearing hinge is what belongs on that opening.
7) I am replacing one worn hinge in a set. Will the Baldwin 1040 sit flush in the existing mortise without the door binding?
Check the leaf gauge before you swap. The 1040 leaf is .130 inch thick, and if the hinge coming out is thinner or thicker than that, the door will sit proud or shy of where it was and the strike may stop lining up. The mortise also has to be square cornered, 4 inch by 4 inch, for the leaf to drop in. Where all three match, it goes straight into the existing pocket. Mixing one 1040 into a set of two different hinges is asking for a bind at the top or bottom, so hanging the whole door on 1040s is the cleaner fix.
8) What finishes do Baldwin Reserve 1040 hinges come in, and will they match my Baldwin Reserve levers?
Fourteen finishes, all using Baldwin's standard finish codes, so they match the code on your Reserve trim: 003 Polished Brass PVD, 031 Non-Lacquered Brass, 033 Vintage Brass, 044 Satin Brass PVD, 050 Satin Brass and Black, 055 Polished Nickel PVD, 056 Lifetime PVD Satin Nickel, 060 Satin Brass and Brown, 076 Lifetime PVD Graphite Nickel, 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze, 112 Venetian Bronze, 151 Antique Nickel, 190 Satin Black and 260 Polished Chrome. Worth knowing before you order a whole house: 031 Non-Lacquered Brass is an uncoated living finish that darkens and patinas with handling, while the PVD codes are coated and hold their color. 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze also wears at the touch points by design.
9) Does the Baldwin 1040 hinge have to be mortised into the frame as well as the door?
Yes, both. This is a full mortise hinge, meaning one leaf lets into the door edge and the other lets into the jamb, and both pockets have to be cut to the leaf gauge of .130 inch so the leaves finish flush. On new wood doors and jambs that come pre-mortised for a 4 inch square corner hinge, the pockets are already there. On a door with no prep, someone is chiseling or routing two pockets per hinge, and the corners have to be square.
10) Is a non-removable pin hinge the same as a security hinge?
Not the same thing. A non-removable pin, which the 1040 is offered with, stops someone tapping the pin out and lifting the door off, and that is the common protection on an outswing exterior door. A true security hinge adds a stud or set screw in one leaf that engages the opposite leaf, so the door still cannot be pried off even with the pin gone. If that is what the spec calls for, the Deltana DE44R5TA is a 4 inch by 4 inch steel security hinge, though it has 5/8 inch radius corners rather than square, so it needs a routed mortise, not the square pocket the 1040 uses.
11) Are there plainer plated steel square corner hinges if a decorative brass finish is not needed?
Yes - the square corner profile is available in plated steel from several brands when the opening does not call for a decorative finish like the Baldwin Reserve 1040's polished brass PVD or oil rubbed bronze. Emtek's 91013 is a residential plain bearing square corner hinge in plated steel and the 92013 is the heavy duty plain bearing version, both 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" in pairs. Ives 1010RP is a steel plain bearing residential hinge with square corners sold in sets of three and rated medium duty. These are utility hinges rather than decorative ones, so the finish range is narrower.
12) What hinge should I use for a heavy solid-core or oversized door that a 4 inch hinge is too small for?
Once the slab outgrows a 4" x 4" leaf, the usual move is a wider, heavier ball bearing hinge. Don-Jo's HWBB74545 and HWBB84545 are heavy weight full mortise ball bearing hinges at 4-1/2" x 4-1/2" in satin chrome, and the HWBB75045 is a 5" x 4-1/2" steel version in satin chrome, all rated heavy duty. Don-Jo's HWBB85045 is the same 5" x 4-1/2" size in brass with a satin chrome finish. Each of these takes a larger mortise than the Baldwin Reserve 1040 in both leaf height and width, so the jamb and door prep both change.
13) Which comparable hinges come packed in pairs or sets rather than one at a time?
Packaging differs enough between brands to change what you order for a three-hinge door. The Baldwin Reserve 1040 is packed one per box, each hinge poly-bagged with its fasteners, so a standard door takes three boxes. Deltana's DSB35 and CSB45N, Emtek's 91013 and 94013, and Delaney's Castlegate 4" x 4" residential hinges are each sold as a pair, while Ives 1010RP comes as a set of three and Schlage Residential's S3P1010 in a pack of three. A pair covers two of the three leaves on a typical door, so count the openings before you order.
14) Is there a square corner hinge that closes the door by itself?
A self-closing opening needs a spring hinge, which is a different device from a butt hinge like the Baldwin Reserve 1040 - the 1040 swings the door and nothing more. Stanley Security's 2060R is a full mortise spring hinge with square corners at 4.5" x 4.5" on a ferrous steel base, rated heavy duty, and it provides the closing force from the hinge itself. Note the 4-1/2" leaf takes a larger mortise than a 4" x 4" prep.
15) What hinge carries power to an electrified lock in the door?
A standard butt hinge like the Baldwin Reserve 1040 has no wiring path, so an access-controlled opening needs an energy transfer hinge. Command Access ETH-CB70 is an energy transfer hinge with a 3 knuckle standard weight steel base rated medium duty, and the ETH-BB68 is the 5 knuckle heavy duty steel base version in the ETH 5 Series. BEST CECB179-12C is a steel full mortise concealed bearing electrified hinge with a 12-wire quick connect, rated medium duty, and Stanley Security's CECB1900R54L is a three knuckle concealed bearing concealed conductor hinge in steel full mortise, standard weight, 4-1/2" x 4-1/2", square corner, left-handed, 4-wire.
16) Why is one leaf of the Baldwin 1040 hinge beveled, and will the hinge show a gap when the door is shut?
The bevel is on the inside leaf and it is there so the two leaves close tight against each other, which is what you see from the room side with the door shut. On a decorative hinge that gap is the detail people notice, and the leaves are machined rather than stamped to keep the fit consistent. It is a cosmetic and fit feature, not a load feature, and it is the reason this hinge is specified on openings where the hardware is meant to be looked at.
17) Which hinge tells the access control system whether the door is open or closed?
Door position sensing comes from a monitor hinge, not from a decorative butt hinge. Command Access ETM-BB68 is an energy transfer monitor hinge with an integrated door position switch on a heavy duty ETM 5 Series base, and the ETM-CB70 is the 3 knuckle steel base version with door position sensing, rated medium duty in the ETM 3 Series. Both carry power and report position on the same leaf, where an ETH-series hinge only transfers power.
18) What other decorative hinge is available if I want a different barrel or knuckle look?
The Baldwin Reserve 1040 is a decorative square corner hinge with a beveled inside leaf that closes up tight when the door is shut. For a different profile, McKinney's SQ3331 is a square barrel 2 knuckle decorative hinge at 4-1/2" by 4-1/2" rated standard duty, which reads as a squared barrel rather than a rounded multi-knuckle one. McKinney's MP79 and MPB79 MacPro hinges are 5 knuckle standard weight full mortise hinges if you want the conventional knuckle stack. The SQ3331 and MacPro sizes are their own, so check the mortise before swapping.
19) What hinge works when the frame cannot be mortised for a full mortise leaf?
The Baldwin Reserve 1040 is a full mortise hinge, meaning both leaves sit in routed pockets in the door and the jamb. Where the frame will not take that prep, Hager's 1129 is a half mortise plain bearing commercial hinge, 4-1/2" standard weight steel, rated heavy duty, which mortises the door leaf and surface-applies to the frame. Hager's 990 STEEL is a full surface hinge at 3" x 4" with a welded tip, rated heavy duty, with both leaves applied to the face. Half mortise and full surface both change the leaf geometry and the fastener pattern from a full mortise install.
20) Do detention or high security hinges swap in for a standard residential butt hinge?
They do not - detention hinges are built for a different frame and a different threat, and they are not a size-for-size swap for a residential hinge like the Baldwin Reserve 1040. BEST's BB855 is a heavy-duty steel double weight concealed ball bearing prison hinge in the Detention Hardware series, and Stanley Security's double weight prison hinge is 5" by 6", furnished with no holes and not swaged, rated heavy duty. Unswaged, unbored leaves mean the frame and door are prepped and drilled to suit rather than dropped onto an existing hinge pattern.
