Deltana S44HD 4" x 4" Square Hinge, Heavy-Duty, Steel (Pair)

The S44HD is a 4 x 4 inch full mortise hinge with square corners, so it drops into an existing square-cut 4 x 4 mortise with no re-routing. If the door and jamb are cut with radius corners instead, the square corner leaf leaves gaps at the corners and you'd want a radius corner hinge such as the Orca Hardware 4014 Series 4 x 4 with a 1/4 inch radius corner. Leaf thickness is .129 inch.

It's a residential-duty hinge. Deltana classes the S44HD as residential and it uses a plain bearing, which handles interior doors in a house or a unit but not the cycle counts a commercial corridor or an entry with a closer puts on a hinge. For those openings step up to a ball bearing commercial hinge, like the Orca Hardware 3535 Series 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 square corner ball bearing, or a heavy weight Don-Jo HWBB84545 4-1/2 x 4-1/2.

Not if pin security is the concern. The S44HD is supplied with a standard removable pin, no NRP option, so on an out-swing door the pin is reachable from the outside. Where that matters, use a non-removable pin hinge such as the Hager BB1168 NRP full mortise ball bearing.

No. The S44HD measures 4 x 4 inches and a 3-1/2 inch mortise is both shorter and shallower, so the leaf overhangs the cut. Match what's in the door: for 3-1/2 inch openings use a 3-1/2 x 3-1/2 square corner residential hinge such as the Emtek 91013 plain bearing pair or the Schlage Residential S3P1010 3-pack. 4 x 4 is the usual size for a 1-3/4 inch door, 3-1/2 inch for lighter 1-3/8 inch interior doors.

The Deltana S44HD is a 4 inch by 4 inch square corner plain bearing steel hinge sold as a pair and rated for residential use. For a commercial opening at the same 4 inch by 4 inch square corner size, the Orca Hardware 4040 Series is a 4 inch by 4 inch square corner plain bearing commercial hinge, medium duty. It keeps the same leaf size and mortise footprint and the same plain bearing action, so the existing 4 inch square corner prep carries over.

The Deltana S44HD uses a plain bearing. If the opening calls for ball bearing at the same size and corner, the Delaney CH401X is a 4 inch by 4 inch commercial ball bearing hinge with square corners. It matches the 4 inch by 4 inch leaf and square corner prep while changing the bearing type, which is the usual move on a door that sees constant traffic or carries a closer.

The Deltana S44HD is a 4 inch by 4 inch hinge and will not drop into a 3-1/2 inch mortise. For that prep, the Emtek 91013 is a residential plain bearing hinge pair, 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch with square corners in plated steel, and the Emtek 92013 is the heavy duty plain bearing version at the same 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch square corner size. The Schlage Residential S3P1010 is a 3.5 inch by 3.5 inch square corner plain bearing mortise hinge sold in packs of three, which suits a three-hinge door in one order.

No. The Don-Jo HWBB74545 is a heavy weight full mortise ball bearing hinge at 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, a larger leaf than the 4 inch by 4 inch Deltana S44HD, so it needs a wider and taller mortise in both door and jamb. Both are full mortise, but the sizes are different preps. If you are already cut for 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, the Don-Jo HWBB84545 is the same 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch heavy weight ball bearing hinge, and the Orca Hardware 3535 Series is a 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch square corner ball bearing commercial hinge.

The Deltana S44HD is supplied without a non-removable pin. For an out-swinging exterior door where the pin has to be defeated, the Hager BB1168 is a non-removable pin full mortise ball bearing heavy duty hinge. It is the same full mortise mounting method as the S44HD, so it goes into a routed mortise the same way, with the NRP set screw added at the barrel.

No. The Deltana S44HD is a plain bearing steel hinge with no conductor path. To carry power from frame to door you need an energy transfer hinge: the Command Access ETH-BB68 is a 5 knuckle heavy duty steel base energy transfer hinge, and the Command Access ETH-CB70 is the 3 knuckle standard weight version. If the opening also needs door position monitoring, the Command Access ETM-BB68 is an energy transfer monitor hinge with an integrated door position switch. The BEST CECB179-12C is a steel full mortise concealed bearing electrified hinge with a 12 wire quick connect for higher wire counts.

The Deltana S44HD is a standard plain bearing hinge with no closing mechanism. For a self-closing opening, the Stanley Security 2060R is a full mortise spring hinge with square corners at 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch on a ferrous steel base, heavy duty. It is a larger leaf than the 4 inch by 4 inch S44HD, so plan on a 4-1/2 inch mortise in the door and jamb.

No, they mount differently. The Deltana S44HD is a full mortise hinge, cut into both the door edge and the jamb. The Hager 1129 is a half mortise plain bearing commercial hinge at 4-1/2 inch, standard weight steel, which mortises into the door but surface applies to the frame. Half mortise is used on metal frames that are not prepped for a mortised leaf, so it is not a swap for a full mortise opening even though both are plain bearing.

The Deltana Steel Hinges are described as a value choice for indoor applications. For an exterior leaf, the Delaney RH45xx is a 4 inch by 4 inch exterior residential hinge pair with a 5/8 inch radius, and where the pin has to resist removal on an out-swing, the Hager BB1168 is a non-removable pin full mortise ball bearing heavy duty hinge. Check the corner first: the S44HD and the Hager route differently from the 5/8 inch radius Delaney.

S44HD hinges are sold by the pair, so one order line gets you two hinges. A standard interior door takes three hinges, so plan on two pairs per door and a spare leaf, or order in multiples that cover the count you actually need across the openings.

Both screw types ship with the hinge: #12 x 1 inch wood screws for a wood jamb and door, and #12 x 1/2 inch machine screws for a metal frame. That covers a wood door hung in either a wood or a hollow metal jamb without a separate fastener order.

No handing to specify. A full mortise butt hinge like the S44HD is symmetrical and works on a left or right hand door either way, so you order by size, finish, and quantity only. Handing only enters the picture on hinges built with a specific hand, such as the Stanley CECB1900R electrified hinge, which is a left-handed part.

Nine finishes across the S44HD: Polished Brass, Antique Brass, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Brushed Nickel, Antique Nickel, Polished Chrome, Brushed Chrome, Paint Black, and Prime Coat White. Prime Coat White is the one to order when the hinge gets painted to match the door or trim on site.

Yes, for interior unit doors that are already cut for a 4 x 4 square corner mortise. The same S44HD model runs across all nine finishes, so you can hold one part number and one screw kit for the fleet and vary only the finish by building or floor. Where a door carries a closer or sees corridor traffic, that opening needs a ball bearing commercial hinge instead of the plain bearing S44HD.

Both are steel plain bearing residential hinges with square corners. The Deltana S44HD is 4 inch by 4 inch and ships as a pair; the Ives 1010RP is sold as a set of three and is rated medium duty. On a typical interior door taking three hinges, the set of three covers one leaf in a single order while the S44HD pair covers two of the three positions.

The Deltana S44HD is a heavy duty steel plain bearing hinge rated residential, which suits unit doors and interior openings. For a high traffic commercial corridor, the Ives 3CB1HW is a steel heavy weight concealed bearing full mortise hinge with 3 knuckles, heavy duty, and the McKinney MP79 MacPro is a 5 knuckle full mortise standard weight hinge. Both are full mortise like the S44HD; the difference is a concealed or ball type bearing carrying the cycles rather than a plain bearing.

The Deltana S44HD is a 4 inch by 4 inch pair. On interior doors sized for 3-1/2 inch hinges, the Delaney RH35xx is a bulk steel residential interior hinge pair at 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch with a 5/8 inch radius. Note the corner: the S44HD is square corner and the RH35xx is radiused, so confirm which the existing jamb is routed for before ordering quantity.

The Deltana S44HD is 4 inch by 4 inch. If the door is prepped for a 5 inch leaf, the Don-Jo HWBB75045 is a heavy weight full mortise ball bearing hinge at 5 inch by 4-1/2 inch in steel with a satin chrome finish, and the Don-Jo HWBB85045 is the brass version at the same 5 inch by 4-1/2 inch size. Both are heavy duty and full mortise like the S44HD, just on a taller leaf carrying more door weight.

They are built for different openings. The BEST BB855 is a heavy duty steel double weight concealed ball bearing prison hinge from the detention hardware line, and the Stanley Security BB855 is a double weight prison hinge at 5 inch by 6 inch furnished with no holes and not swaged, meaning it is drilled and swaged to the frame shop's layout. The Deltana S44HD is a 4 inch by 4 inch plain bearing pair supplied with #12 x 1 inch wood screws and #12 x 1/2 inch machine screws ready to hang. For a secure but conventional door, the non-removable pin route is the closer fit than detention hardware.

No. The Deltana S44HD is a full mortise hinge and swings in one direction. For a door that swings both ways, the BEST DAP-3 is a heavy duty double acting pivot for commercial interior doors. A pivot mounts at the top and bottom of the door rather than in a hinge mortise on the edge, so it is a different prep entirely, not a hinge substitution.

Both are full mortise steel hinges. The Deltana S44HD uses a plain bearing, where the knuckles bear directly on each other. The Ives 3CB1 is a 3 knuckle concealed bearing full mortise hinge, medium duty, with the bearing hidden inside the knuckle rather than exposed as a visible ball bearing band. Concealed bearing is the usual choice where the barrel needs to look like a plain hinge but the door cycles like a commercial one.

Thickness of the leaf. The S44HD is the heavy-duty version in Deltana's S44 line, with a .129 inch steel leaf, which resists sagging on a heavier slab door better than a thinner standard residential leaf. It's still a plain bearing hinge, so the upgrade is in the metal, not the bearing.

The Deltana S44HD is a square corner steel hinge offered in finishes including oil rubbed bronze, polished brass, antique brass, polished chrome and brushed nickel. If the look you want is a shaped barrel rather than a standard five knuckle, the McKinney SQ3331 is a square barrel 2-knuckle decorative hinge at 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, standard duty. That is a larger leaf than the 4 inch by 4 inch S44HD, so the mortise differs.
