Don-Jo HWBB75045-652 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I need to order non-removable pins separately on the Don-Jo HWBB75045?
No. NRP is standard on this heavy weight hinge, so the pin cannot be driven out from the hinge side once the door is closed. That matters on any out-swinging exterior or tenant-entry door where the barrel is exposed on the outside, and it means you do not have to spec a security stud or a separate NRP suffix.
2) What should I use instead of the Don-Jo HWBB75045 if the door needs electrified power transfer through the hinge?
The HWBB75045 is a mechanical ball bearing hinge with no wiring provision. For power transfer to an electrified lock, the Command Access ETH-BB68 is a heavy duty 5-knuckle steel base energy transfer hinge, and the BEST CECB179-12C is a steel full mortise concealed bearing electrified hinge with a 12-wire quick connect. The Command Access ETM-BB68 adds an integrated door position switch if the opening also needs monitoring.
3) The frame is only prepped for a half mortise or full surface hinge - what replaces the Don-Jo HWBB75045?
The Don-Jo HWBB75045 is a full mortise hinge and needs both the door edge and frame rabbet mortised. Where the frame cannot be mortised, the Hager 1129 is a half mortise plain bearing commercial hinge in 4-1/2 inch standard weight steel, and the Hager 990 STEEL is a full surface prison hinge at 3 inch by 4 inch with a welded tip. Both trade the ball bearing action of the Don-Jo for a plain bearing.
4) Is a heavy weight ball bearing hinge the right choice, or will a standard weight hinge do?
Go heavy weight when the door is heavy, oversized, or takes high-frequency traffic, which is what the HWBB75045 is built for at 0.19 gauge steel with ball bearings and 5 knuckles. Standard weight is fine on ordinary interior commercial openings, and there are 5-knuckle standard weight options like the Stanley FBB191 in 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 or the McKinney MP79 MacPro if the leaf size and door weight allow it.
5) Does a 5 inch ball bearing hinge like the Don-Jo HWBB75045 have a handing?
No handing to specify. It's a full mortise butt hinge with five knuckles and a ball bearing barrel, symmetrical top to bottom, so the same hinge works on a left or right hand door. Handing only becomes an ordering question on electrified or concealed-conductor hinges, like the Stanley CECB1900R54L, which is sold left-handed with a 4-wire harness.
6) Does this Don-Jo hinge meet ANSI requirements for a commercial opening?
The HWBB75045 is built to ANSI A8111 and is a commercial-grade product, which is the reference most architectural hardware schedules cite for a heavy weight full mortise steel hinge. It's the size and duty level typically scheduled on school, healthcare, government and multi-tenant openings.
7) Can I use these hinges on apartment unit doors, or are they overkill?
They work well there. Heavy weight steel with ball bearings handles the cycle count of a tenant entry door, and the standard non-removable pin closes off the pin-pulling attack on out-swinging unit doors. If the doors are lightweight interior residential leaves with 3-1/2 inch preps, step down to something like the Emtek 94013 heavy duty ball bearing hinge in 3-1/2 by 3-1/2 square corner instead.
8) Which other hinges come with non-removable pins like the Don-Jo HWBB75045?
The Don-Jo HWBB75045 ships with non-removable pins as standard on its heavy duty hinges. Among comparable products, the Hager BB1168-NRP is a non-removable pin full mortise ball bearing heavy duty hinge, and the Deltana CSB45N is a 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch square hinge pair with a non-removable pin. The Deltana DE44R5TA is a 4 inch by 4 inch security hinge with a 5/8 inch radius corner in steel.
9) If a commercial door does not need heavy weight hinges, what is a lighter alternative to the Don-Jo HWBB75045?
For a standard weight opening, the Stanley Security FBB191 in 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch is a 5-knuckle full mortise standard weight hinge, and the McKinney MPB79 MacPro is also a 5-knuckle standard weight hinge. Both keep the 5-knuckle full mortise format of the Don-Jo HWBB75045, which is itself a heavy duty 5 inch by 4-1/2 inch hinge for heavy commercial doors.
10) Is a concealed bearing hinge like the Ives 3CB1HW the same thing as the Don-Jo HWBB75045?
No. The Ives 3CB1HW is a steel heavy weight concealed bearing full mortise hinge with 3 knuckles, while the Don-Jo HWBB75045 is a 5-knuckle ball bearing hinge. Both are heavy duty full mortise steel, but the knuckle count and barrel appearance differ, so mixing them on the same opening will not look consistent even though the mortise prep family is the same.
11) Does a plain bearing commercial hinge like the Orca COM4040 do the same job as the Don-Jo HWBB75045?
Not on a high-frequency heavy door. The Orca Hardware COM4040 is a 4 inch by 4 inch square corner plain bearing commercial hinge rated medium duty. The Don-Jo HWBB75045 uses ball bearings and is rated heavy duty at 5 inch by 4-1/2 inch, which is the configuration used where the leaf is heavy and the cycle count is high.
12) Can I use residential ball bearing hinges such as the Emtek 94013 in place of the Don-Jo HWBB75045?
They are not interchangeable on a heavy commercial door. The Emtek 94013 is a heavy duty ball bearing hinge pair at 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch with square corners in plated steel, sized for residential-scale doors. The Don-Jo HWBB75045 is a commercial 5 inch by 4-1/2 inch steel heavy weight hinge with non-removable pins for heavy commercial leaves, and the mortise prep sizes do not match.
13) What hinge should I specify instead of the Don-Jo HWBB75045 for a detention or correctional opening?
Detention openings call for a purpose-built hinge rather than a standard commercial ball bearing unit. The BEST BB855 is a heavy-duty steel double weight concealed ball bearing prison hinge, the Stanley Security BB855 is a double weight prison hinge furnished with no holes and not swaged at 5 inch by 6 inch, and the Hager 990 STEEL is a 3 inch by 4 inch full surface prison hinge with a welded tip. The Don-Jo HWBB75045 is a heavy duty full mortise commercial hinge.
14) If the door needs to self-close, is there a hinge alternative to the Don-Jo HWBB75045?
Yes. The Stanley Security 2060R in 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch is a heavy duty full mortise spring hinge with square corners on a ferrous steel base, so it closes the leaf without a separate closer. The Don-Jo HWBB75045 is a ball bearing hinge with no closing spring and would need a door closer added for the same behavior.
15) Does the Don-Jo HWBB75045 work on a double acting interior door?
No. The HWBB75045 is a full mortise hinge for single-swing commercial doors. A door that swings both ways needs pivot hardware such as the BEST DAP-3, a heavy duty double acting pivot for commercial interior doors.
16) What finish does the Don-Jo HWBB75045 come in?
As ordered it is 652 satin chrome on steel. Don-Jo builds this heavy weight hinge in 632, 633, 640, 651 and 652, so 652 is the one that lines up with the satin chrome and satin stainless-look trim most commercial jobs are specified in.
17) What's the difference between this ball bearing hinge and a concealed bearing hinge?
On the HWBB75045 the bearings sit in visible races between the five knuckles, which is the traditional architectural look and is what most commercial hardware schedules call out. A concealed bearing hinge hides the bearing inside the barrel for a cleaner butt line, as on the Ives 3CB1HW heavy weight or the Hager 920 2-knuckle. Both carry load the same way; it's mainly appearance and knuckle count.
