Deltana SS44R5B-S 4" x 4" x 5/8" Radius Corner Hinge, Ball Bearing, Security, Stainless Steel (Pair)

If the existing pocket is a 4 inch by 4 inch cutout with 5/8 inch radius corners, yes. The SS44R5B-S is a full mortise hinge cut 4" x 4" with 5/8" radius corners, which is the common factory prep on pre-hung residential and light commercial doors. If your jamb and door are routed square-corner, this leaf will not fill the pocket cleanly and you want a square corner 4 x 4 instead.

That is what the SS44 Series is built for. Both the leaves and the substrate are stainless steel, which holds up far better than plated or painted steel hinges on waterside and outdoor openings. Plated steel residential hinges like the Emtek 91013 are interior-grade by comparison.

The Deltana SS44R5B-S is a 4 inch by 4 inch full mortise ball bearing hinge with 5/8 inch radius corners in stainless steel. If the door and frame are prepped for square corners, the Delaney CH401X is a 4 inch by 4 inch commercial ball bearing hinge with square corners. Corner prep has to match what is routed into the door edge and frame, so confirm that before ordering either one.

The SS44R5B-S uses a security tab and is not supplied with a non-removable pin. Where the drawing calls for NRP on an out-swinging door, the Hager BB1168-NRP is a full mortise ball bearing hinge with a non-removable pin, rated heavy duty. The security tab and the NRP set screw address the same exposed-pin concern by different means, so match whichever the spec names.

The Deltana SS44R5B-S is a 4 inch by 4 inch stainless steel ball bearing hinge. On a heavier or wider leaf the usual step up is a larger, heavier-weight hinge: 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 is 5 inch by 4-1/2 inch heavy weight steel. Those larger sizes need a wider mortise in the door edge and frame than a 4 inch hinge.

No. The SS44R5B-S is a mechanical stainless steel ball bearing hinge with no wire path. For an electrified opening, the Command Access ETH-BB68 is a 5-knuckle heavy duty energy transfer hinge and the ETH-CB70 is a 3-knuckle standard weight energy transfer hinge; the BEST CECB179-12C is a steel full mortise concealed bearing electrified hinge with a 12-wire quick connect. On most jobs one electrified hinge carries the power and the remaining hinges in the opening stay mechanical.

The Deltana SS44R5B-S is stainless steel throughout, which Deltana positions for waterside properties and outdoor use because of its corrosion resistance compared with regular steel hinges. The Emtek 94013 is a heavy duty ball bearing hinge sold as a pair in plated steel at 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch with square corners. Both use ball bearings, but the base material and the leaf size differ, and salt air is the deciding factor on material.

The SS44R5B-S is sold as a pair, one box being one pair, with 30 pairs to a case. Standard practice on a 4 x 4 hinge is three hinges per door leaf, so for a typical door you order two pairs and have one hinge left over, or plan bulk quantities in multiples that cover three per opening.

Both screw types are specified with the hinge: #9 x 1/2" machine screws for the metal frame side and #9 x 3/4" wood screws for wood jambs and doors. So you can hang either a hollow metal frame or a wood jamb without sourcing fasteners separately.

On any door that cycles hard or carries weight, yes. The SS44R5B-S runs ball bearings between the knuckles, which cuts friction and squeak and holds alignment under a closer far longer than a plain bearing barrel. Plain bearing options like the Orca Hardware 4014 Series 4" x 4" radius corner hinge or the Ives 1010RP are the lower-cycle choice for interior passage doors that see light use.

The SS44R5B-S is 4" x 4" only, so it will not fill a 4-1/2 inch prep. For that size, the Orca Hardware 3535 Series is a 4-1/2" x 4-1/2" square corner ball bearing commercial hinge, and Don-Jo's HWBB74545 is a heavy weight full mortise ball bearing hinge in 4-1/2" x 4-1/2". Match the corner style of your existing prep when you pick.

No. The SS44R5B-S is a commercial full mortise hinge whose security feature is a locking tab in the leaves. True detention hardware is a different class of product: the BEST BB855 is a heavy-duty steel double weight concealed ball bearing prison hinge, the Stanley BB855 is a double weight prison hinge at 5 inch by 6 inch furnished with no holes and not swaged, and the Hager 990 STEEL is a full surface prison hinge 3 inch by 4 inch with a welded tip. Those are specified for correctional openings, not standard commercial doors.

Yes. The Deltana SS44R5B-S is a commercial-rated stainless steel ball bearing hinge with a security tab option. For a plain interior residential opening, the Delaney RH35xx is a 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch steel interior residential hinge with 5/8 inch radius corners, sold as a pair, and the Delaney RH45xx is a 4 inch by 4 inch bulk residential hinge for exterior use with the same 5/8 inch radius. Note the RH35xx is a smaller leaf size, so it needs a 3-1/2 inch mortise.

The SS44R5B-S has ball bearings in the knuckles, which is what you want on doors that see steady traffic or carry a closer. The Ives 1010RP is a steel plain bearing residential hinge with square corners sold as a set of three, medium duty, and the Schlage Residential S3P1010 is a 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch square corner plain bearing mortise hinge in a pack of three, also medium duty. Plain bearing hinges suit lighter interior doors; they also come three to a box rather than as a pair.

Yes. The SS44R5B-S is a mechanical hinge with no switch or wiring. For door position monitoring built into the hinge, the Command Access ETM-BB68 is an energy transfer monitor hinge with an integrated door position switch rated heavy duty, and the ETM-CB70 is the 3-knuckle steel base version with door position sensing rated medium duty.

Brushed Stainless is the finish offered, which is the natural satin look of the stainless base metal rather than a plating over steel. Because the color is the material itself, wear at the knuckle will not expose a different metal underneath the way a plated finish does.
