Deltana S44R5N 4" x 4" x 5/8" Radius Hinge, NRP, Residential, Steel (Pair)

If the existing pocket is a 4 x 4 full mortise cut with 5/8 inch radius corners, yes. The S44R5N is a 4 inch x 4 inch full mortise hinge with 5/8 inch radius corners and an arc hole pattern, so it lands in the same routed pocket a standard residential radius-corner hinge came out of. What it will not do is fill a square-corner mortise: the rounded corners leave a small gap at each corner unless the pocket is squared or the hinge is swapped for a square-corner version.

NRP is a non-removable pin, and the S44R5N has one. A set screw in the barrel bears on the pin so it cannot be tapped out from the hinge side. That matters on any door that swings out, because the barrels sit on the exterior: without NRP someone can pull the pin and lift the door off. On an in-swinging interior door the barrels are protected and NRP is not doing much for you. Note this is a residential-duty steel hinge with a plain bearing, so the security feature is on a light-duty hinge, not a commercial one.

Plain bearing, which is what the S44R5N uses, is the right call for interior residential doors in a house or apartment: light leaf, low cycle count, hollow-core or standard solid-core doors. Go to ball bearing when the door is heavy, has a closer on it, or sees traffic like an office, corridor, or unit entry in a multi-family building. Closers in particular chew through plain bearing hinges. For those openings ZenSupply carries the Orca Hardware 3535 Series 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 square corner ball bearing commercial hinge, or the Delaney CH401X 4 x 4 commercial ball bearing hinge in square corner if you want to stay at the 4 inch size.

No. The S44R5N is a residential-duty steel hinge with a plain bearing, and it should stay on house and apartment interior doors. For a commercial opening use a commercial hinge such as the Ives 3CB1 3-knuckle concealed bearing full mortise hinge or the Don-Jo HWBB84545 heavy weight full mortise ball bearing hinge at 4-1/2 x 4-1/2. If the opening is fire rated, buy a hinge specifically listed for that opening and confirm the listing with the door and frame labels.

Not without recutting. A 4 x 4 hinge needs a taller and deeper pocket than a 3-1/2 x 3-1/2, so you would be chiseling both the door edge and the jamb on every leaf, and the screw holes will not line up. Stay at 3-1/2 inch if you are only swapping hardware: the Delaney RH35xx 3-1/2 x 3-1/2 steel residential hinge is also a 5/8 inch radius corner, which matches most 3-1/2 inch residential pockets. The Emtek 91013 3-1/2 x 3-1/2 residential plain bearing pair is square corner, so that one needs a square pocket.

The Delaney 4 inch by 4 inch bulk residential hinge with 5/8 inch radius corners for exterior openings is the closest match on size and corner profile, and the Delaney Castlegate 4 inch by 4 inch residential hinge is offered in 5/8 inch radius and square corners. The Deltana S44R5N is a 4 inch by 4 inch steel plain bearing hinge with 5/8 inch radius corners and a non-removable pin, so if the opening needs the pin secured, the S44R5N carries that feature where the Delaney residential hinges are described as standard residential hinges.

Both are 4 inch by 4 inch plain bearing hinges. The Orca 4014 series has 1/4 inch radius corners and the Orca 4040 series has square corners, both rated medium duty for commercial use, while the Deltana S44R5N has 5/8 inch radius corners and is specified as residential steel with a non-removable pin. Corner profile is what decides the swap: a mortise cut for a 5/8 inch radius will not accept a square corner leaf without rework.

The S44R5N is sold by the pair, one pair per box. A standard interior door hangs on three hinges, so order two pairs per door and you will have one hinge left over, or plan two doors per three pairs. Two hinges is only enough on a light, short door. It ships bulk in case quantities of 50 pairs.

Wood screws are specified with the hinge at #9 x 1 inch. Those are fine into a solid wood jamb. If you are hanging a heavier door or a split jamb where the screw only catches the jamb material, run at least one long screw per leaf into the framing behind it instead; that is the usual failure point, not the hinge.

No handing to specify. A five-eighths radius full mortise butt hinge like the S44R5N is symmetrical and non-handed, so the same pair works on a left-hand or right-hand door. The only choice you make is finish.

Eight finishes: oil rubbed bronze, brushed nickel, antique nickel, paint black, polished chrome, brushed chrome, polished brass, and antique brass. That spread lets you match the hinges to knobs and levers already on the other doors, which is the usual reason a property manager is buying hinges in the first place. Match the finish name across all the doors you are doing at once, since brushed chrome and brushed nickel read differently side by side.

The S44 steel hinges are described as a value choice for indoor applications, so for an exterior opening look at the Delaney RH45xx 4 x 4 bulk residential hinge, which is the exterior version at the same 5/8 inch radius corner and the same 4 x 4 size. The one thing the S44R5N brings to an exterior door is its non-removable pin, which matters on an out-swing, so if you do use it there keep that in mind and expect indoor-rated plating.

For interior unit doors in a residential building, yes, and that is the case it is built for: one 4 x 4 size, 5/8 inch radius corners, eight finishes to match whatever trim package each unit has, and it ships bulk 50 pairs to a case. Unit entry doors and any door with a closer on it should not be on this hinge, though. Those want a bearing hinge, so plan on a second line item such as the Orca 4040 Series 4 x 4 square corner commercial hinge or a ball bearing hinge for those openings.

The Deltana S44R5N is a plain bearing steel hinge specified for residential duty, which suits ordinary interior and light traffic. For a heavy leaf or constant cycling, ball bearing options include the Emtek 94013 heavy duty ball bearing hinge at 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch with square corners, the Delaney 4 inch by 4 inch commercial ball bearing hinge with square corners, and the Don-Jo HWBB74545 heavy weight full mortise ball bearing hinge at 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch. Stepping to 4-1/2 inch or to a square corner changes the mortise, so confirm the existing prep before ordering.

No. The Command Access ETH-CB70 is an energy transfer hinge, a 3 knuckle standard weight steel base hinge that carries power through the door to an electrified lock or exit device. The Deltana S44R5N is a mechanical 4 inch by 4 inch steel hinge with no wiring path. They mount in the same family of preps but serve different jobs, and an opening that needs power transfer needs the ETH-CB70 or, where door position monitoring is also required, the ETM-CB70.

They are different bearing constructions. The Hager 920 is a full mortise concealed plain bearing hinge with 2 knuckle steel construction rated medium duty, and the Ives 3CB1 is a 3 knuckle concealed bearing full mortise hinge, also medium duty. The Deltana S44R5N uses a plain bearing with a non-removable pin and is specified as residential. Concealed bearing hinges hide the bearing inside the knuckle for a cleaner barrel; if the opening needs the pin secured against removal, the S44R5N carries NRP where the 920 and 3CB1 are described without it.

The Deltana S44R5N is sold as a pair of 4 inch by 4 inch steel hinges with 5/8 inch radius corners. The Ives 1010RP is a steel plain bearing residential hinge with square corners sold as a set of three, rated medium duty. Both are plain bearing residential hinges; the difference that matters when counting a job is the pack, since a standard door taking three hinges needs two pairs of the S44R5N per leaf or one 1010RP set.

The Deltana S44R5N is a plain bearing hinge with no spring, so it will not self-close a door. For that, the Stanley Security spring hinge is a full mortise square corner hinge at 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch on a ferrous steel base, rated heavy duty. Note the size and corner change from the 4 inch by 4 inch, 5/8 inch radius prep the S44R5N fits, so the frame and door mortises need to suit.

The McKinney MP79 MacPro is a full mortise 5 knuckle standard weight hinge, and the MPB79 MacPro is likewise a 5 knuckle standard weight hinge, so both answer a spec written that way directly. The Deltana S44R5N is a full mortise steel hinge specified for residential use with a plain bearing and a non-removable pin. Where the drawing calls out standard weight architectural hinges by knuckle count, the MacPro hinges are written to that language.

Leaf thickness is .085 inch on the S44R5N. That is worth checking against the hinges coming off the door: if the old leaf is noticeably thicker or thinner, the door will sit differently in the opening and you may need to shim or deepen the mortise to hold your reveal at the latch edge.

The Deltana S44R5N comes in oil rubbed bronze, brushed nickel, antique nickel, paint black, polished chrome, brushed chrome, polished brass, and antique brass. The Don-Jo HWBB74545 and HWBB85045 heavy weight ball bearing hinges are cataloged in satin chrome, so where a job calls for a bronze or brass decorative finish across the openings, the S44R5N range is what carries it and the Don-Jo heavy weight hinges hold the plated commercial look.

They address security at different scales. The BEST BB855 is a heavy duty steel double weight concealed ball bearing prison hinge from the detention hardware line, and the Hager 990 is a full surface prison hinge at 3 inch by 4 inch with a welded tip. Those are built for detention and correctional openings. The Deltana S44R5N handles the ordinary security concern on a residential outswing door, which is pin removal, by using a non-removable pin in a 4 inch by 4 inch steel hinge.
