Emtek 91033-US19 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What door sizes work with these 3.5 x 3.5 plain bearing hinges?
These hinges fit standard residential doors up to 32 inches wide and 80 pounds. Most interior and lightweight exterior doors work well. For heavier doors or high-traffic applications, consider ball bearing hinges instead.
2) Are these hinges handed or universal?
These plain bearing hinges are universal and work for both left-hand and right-hand doors. The pin removes from either direction for installation flexibility.
3) What finish options does Emtek offer for model 91033?
This model comes in plated steel finish. Check with manufacturer for additional finish availability. Emtek typically offers multiple decorative finishes across their hinge lines.
4) How many hinges do I need per door?
Standard residential doors require 3 hinges. This pair provides 2 hinges, so order additional hinges for complete installation. Heavy doors may need 4 hinges total.
5) What's the difference between plain bearing and ball bearing hinges?
Plain bearing hinges use metal-on-metal contact and work well for light-use doors. Ball bearing hinges have sealed bearings for smoother operation and longer life in high-traffic areas.
6) Do these hinges meet residential building codes?
These residential-grade hinges typically meet standard building codes for interior doors. Check local codes for specific requirements, especially for fire-rated doors or commercial applications.
7) What hardware comes with this hinge pair?
Verify with manufacturer specifications for included screws and hardware. Most residential hinges include mounting screws, but confirm screw length matches your door and frame thickness.
8) How do I install these hinges properly?
Mark hinge locations 7 inches from top, 11 inches from bottom, and center the third. Use sharp chisels for mortising. Pre-drill screw holes to prevent splitting. Check door alignment before final tightening.
9) How do I maintain plain bearing hinges?
Apply light machine oil to the pin area annually. Wipe clean with damp cloth. Avoid heavy grease which attracts dirt. Replace hinges if they develop excessive play or binding.
10) Can I use these hinges on exterior doors?
These work for lightweight exterior doors in protected areas. For heavy exterior doors or harsh weather exposure, consider heavy-duty ball bearing hinges with weather-resistant finishes.
11) What other Emtek hinge models are similar?
Emtek offers various residential hinge models in different sizes and finishes. Check our door hardware section for comparable options and ball bearing upgrades.
