Deltana DSB4R5B3 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Deltana DSB4R5B hinge drop into an existing 4 inch mortise with rounded corners?
If the existing pocket is a 4 x 4 inch mortise cut with 5/8 inch radius corners, yes. The DSB4R5B is a full mortise hinge measuring 4 x 4 inches with 5/8 inch radius corners, which is the standard rounded-corner routing most residential prehung doors are machined for. If your existing hinge has square corners, the leaf will not sit flush in the corners without recutting.
2) Are these Deltana brass hinges rated for a commercial opening?
No. The DSB4R5B is classified residential. It is a solid brass ball bearing hinge meant for house and light multi-family use. For a commercial door with a closer or heavy traffic, look at a steel commercial ball bearing hinge instead, such as the Orca Hardware 3535 Series 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 inch square corner ball bearing hinge or the Delaney CH401X 4 x 4 inch commercial ball bearing hinge.
3) The Deltana DSB4R5B has a removable pin. What hinge should I use on an outswing exterior door for security?
The DSB4R5B is not supplied with a non-removable pin. Where an outswing door exposes the hinge barrel, the Hager BB1168 NRP is a non-removable pin full mortise ball bearing heavy duty hinge. It is a heavier steel commercial hinge rather than a solid brass residential one, so verify the mortise size and finish against the other doors in the opening.
4) My doors are prepped for 3-1/2 inch hinges, not 4 inch. What should I order instead of the Deltana DSB4R5B?
The DSB4R5B is a 4 inch by 4 inch hinge and will not fit a 3-1/2 inch mortise. For a 3-1/2 inch radius-corner prep, the Delaney RH35xx is a 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch residential interior hinge with 5/8 inch radius corners sold in pairs. For a 3-1/2 inch square-corner prep with ball bearings, the Emtek 94013 is a 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch heavy duty ball bearing pair in plated steel.
5) What is the closest 4 inch ball bearing hinge to the Deltana DSB4R5B if I need a commercial-rated option?
The Deltana DSB4R5B is a 4 inch by 4 inch full mortise ball bearing hinge in solid brass with 5/8 inch radius corners, rated residential. If the opening calls for a commercial hinge at the same 4 inch by 4 inch size, the Delaney CH401X is a 4 inch by 4 inch commercial ball bearing hinge with square corners. Note the corner change: square corners need a square-cut mortise, so it is not a drop-in for a door already routed with 5/8 inch radius corners.
6) Which hinge matches the 5/8 inch radius corner prep of the Deltana DSB4R5B without the solid brass?
The Delaney RH45xx is a 4 inch by 4 inch residential hinge with the same 5/8 inch radius corners, sold in pairs and intended for exterior doors, and the Delaney RH40xx is a 4 inch by 4 inch residential pair offered in 5/8 inch radius by square. Both drop into the same radius mortise as the Deltana DSB4R5B, which is a 4 inch by 4 inch solid brass hinge with 5/8 inch radius corners. The Deltana carries ball bearings; specify bearing type separately when ordering the Delaney.
7) I need a heavier hinge than the Deltana DSB4R5B for a high-traffic commercial door. What are my options?
The DSB4R5B is a residential-rated 4 inch by 4 inch ball bearing hinge. For heavy weight commercial openings, the Don-Jo HWBB74545 and HWBB84545 are heavy weight full mortise ball bearing hinges at 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch in satin chrome, and the HWBB75045 and HWBB85045 are 5 inch by 4-1/2 inch. The Ives 3CB1HW is a heavy duty steel concealed bearing full mortise hinge with 3 knuckles. All of these change the hinge size or leaf width, so the frame and door prep have to be cut or replaced accordingly.
8) Does the Deltana DSB4R5B work for an electrified or monitored opening?
No. The DSB4R5B is a mechanical full mortise brass hinge with no wiring provision. For power transfer through the hinge, the Command Access ETH-BB68 is a 5-knuckle heavy duty steel energy transfer hinge and the ETH-CB70 is a 3-knuckle standard weight version. If you also need door position monitoring, the Command Access ETM-BB68 includes an integrated door position switch and the ETM-CB70 adds door position sensing on a 3-knuckle steel base. The BEST CECB179-12C is a steel full mortise concealed bearing electrified hinge with a 12-wire quick connect.
9) How many Deltana DSB4R5B hinges do I need to hang one door?
The DSB4R5B is sold as a pair, so a typical interior door hung on three hinges takes two packs (you will have one spare leaf pair left over), and a door hung on two hinges takes one. Mounting screws are #12 x 1-1/4 inch wood screws, so you are fastening into the jamb stud framing, not just the casing.
10) What is the difference between a ball bearing hinge like the Deltana DSB4R5B and a plain bearing hinge?
Ball bearings sit between the knuckles and carry the door's weight on rolling elements, so the hinge turns quietly and resists sag on heavier doors like solid core and slabs with heavy trim. Plain bearing hinges run metal on metal and are fine for light hollow core interior doors. If you want the cheaper plain bearing route in the same 4 x 4 size, the Orca Hardware 4040 Series square corner plain bearing hinge is the alternative.
11) How thick is the leaf on the Deltana DSB4R5B hinge?
The leaf gauge is .129 inch solid brass. That matters when you are swapping into an existing routed pocket: a thicker or thinner leaf changes how the door sits against the stop and can throw off the reveal at the latch edge.
12) Is the Ives 3CB1 a substitute for the Deltana DSB4R5B?
They are different hinge types. The Deltana DSB4R5B is a full mortise ball bearing hinge in solid brass with visible ball bearings between five knuckles and 5/8 inch radius corners. The Ives 3CB1 is a 3-knuckle steel full mortise hinge with concealed bearings at a medium duty rating, so the bearings are hidden inside the knuckle and the barrel profile looks different on the door edge. If the decorative brass barrel matters on the job, the concealed bearing hinge will not match it.
13) I need the door to self-close. Is there a hinge alternative to the Deltana DSB4R5B?
The DSB4R5B is a standard full mortise ball bearing hinge with no closing mechanism. For a self-closing leaf, the Stanley Security 2060R is a full mortise spring hinge, square corner, 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch on a ferrous steel base. The larger leaf and square corner mean a different mortise than the 4 inch by 4 inch radius prep the Deltana uses.
14) What is a comparable ball bearing commercial hinge if I can move up to 4-1/2 inch?
The Orca Hardware COM3535 is a 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch square corner ball bearing commercial hinge at a medium duty rating. Compared with the Deltana DSB4R5B, which is 4 inch by 4 inch solid brass with 5/8 inch radius corners, the Orca is a larger leaf with a square corner, so both the door and frame mortise have to be enlarged and squared.
15) Is the McKinney T2314 an alternative to the Deltana DSB4R5B if I want a non-ferrous hinge?
It is the closest non-ferrous option among the alternatives. The Deltana DSB4R5B is solid brass throughout, which is why it suits damp or coastal exposure. The McKinney T2314 is a non-ferrous standard weight 5-knuckle hinge at a medium duty rating. The Deltana comes as a pair in five finishes including oil rubbed bronze, polished brass, polished chrome, brushed nickel and paint black, so finish matching across a set of doors is the deciding factor between them.
16) Can I add decorative finials to the Deltana DSB4 hinges?
Yes. The DSB4 Series solid brass hinges accept Deltana decorative finials in place of the standard tips, which is the usual reason people specify solid brass over plated steel on a visible interior opening.
17) What finishes do the Deltana DSB4R5B 4 inch hinges come in?
Five: Polished Brass, Polished Chrome, Brushed Nickel, Oil Rubbed Bronze, and Paint Black. Because the base metal is solid brass rather than plated steel, the finishes hold up better on an entry door where the hinge is handled and exposed. Match the hinge to the lockset and door trim on the rest of the openings if you are standardizing a unit.
