Emtek 96314 Solid Brass Square Barrel Heavy Duty Hinges (Pair), 4" x 4" (Thinner Leaf Thickness 0.125")

Emtek's popular Heavy Duty, Square Barrel Solid Brass Hinge is now available in a new, thinner leaf option.

While similar in style, the new Square Barrel Hinge option has a more standardized thickness of 0.125" vs the original 0.180" and features a small step on the wing near the knuckle which provides a more pronounced square hinge profile when the door is closed.

The hinge barrel also features no exposed screws for an aesthetically clean look, unlike some other options on the market.

- Sold in Pairs, includes screws

Emtek 96314-US19 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will Emtek's 96314 square barrel hinges work on a standard 1-3/4 inch door?
Yes. The 96314 square barrel hinge is rated for doors up to 1-3/4 inches thick, which covers standard 1-3/4 inch entry and solid core doors as well as the thinner 1-3/8 inch interior doors most homes use. The hinge measures 4 inches by 4 inches, so both the door edge and the jamb need a 4 inch mortise. Leaf thickness is 0.125 inches. They ship as a pair with screws.
2) My existing hinge mortises are 3-1/2 inch. Can I use the Emtek 96314?
No. The 96314 is the 4 inch by 4 inch size, and a 4 inch leaf will not drop into a mortise cut for a 3-1/2 inch hinge without recutting both the door edge and the jamb. For a 3-1/2 inch opening, Deltana's DSB35 is a 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch square hinge sold in pairs, and Schlage Residential's S3P1010 is a 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch square corner plain bearing hinge sold three to a pack.
3) Are the Emtek 96314 hinges square corner or radius corner?
Square corners. That matters more than the finish does on a retrofit: if the mortises in your door and jamb were routed with a template, they have rounded corners, and a square corner leaf will not seat in them without chiseling the corners out square. Check an existing hinge first. If yours has a radius, Orca Hardware's 4014 Series is a 4 inch by 4 inch hinge with a 1/4 inch radius corner, and Delaney's exterior residential hinge is 4 inch by 4 inch with a 5/8 inch radius, sold in pairs.
4) Are plain bearing hinges enough for a heavy solid core or high traffic door?
The 96314 is a plain bearing hinge, meaning metal rides on metal in the knuckles with no bearing race. That suits normal residential door frequency. On a heavy solid core slab, a tall door, or an opening cycled dozens of times a day, a bearing hinge carries the load better and stays quieter over time. Delaney's CH401X is a 4 inch by 4 inch square corner commercial ball bearing hinge, so it drops into the same 4 inch square mortise. Ives 3CB1HW is a heavy duty concealed bearing full mortise hinge if the door is genuinely heavy.
5) Can I use Emtek 96314 hinges on apartment or office doors in a commercial building?
Emtek rates the 96314 as a residential hinge, and it's a decorative solid brass plain bearing product. Inside a unit, on closet, bedroom and bath doors, that's the right kind of hinge. For corridor doors, entry doors on a rental, and anything on a commercial opening or a labeled door, spec a commercial hinge instead: Orca Hardware's 4040 Series is a 4 inch by 4 inch square corner plain bearing commercial hinge in the same mortise size, and Ives 3CB1 is a medium duty concealed bearing full mortise hinge.
6) What square barrel hinge works when the mortise on the door is 4-1/2 inches instead of 4 inches?
The Emtek 96314 solid brass square barrel hinge is built as a 4 inch by 4 inch pair with square corners, so it will not fill a 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch mortise. The McKinney SQ3331 is also a square barrel hinge and is made in 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch as a 2-knuckle decorative hinge in a standard duty rating. The knuckle count differs, so the closed-door barrel profile of the SQ3331 reads as two segments rather than the stepped square barrel of the Emtek.
7) What square hinge should I order if the door takes a 3-1/2 inch or 3 inch hinge?
The Emtek 96314 square barrel hinge in solid brass is cut for a 4 inch by 4 inch mortise. For smaller openings, the Deltana DSB35 is a 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch square hinge sold as a residential pair, and the Deltana DSB3 is a 3 inch by 3 inch square hinge, also sold as a pair. Both hold the square corner appearance of the Emtek at the smaller leaf size.
8) My existing mortises are radius corner. What 4 inch hinge drops into that prep?
The Emtek 96314 square barrel hinge has square corners, which means a radius corner mortise would have to be squared out to take it. To match an existing radius prep at 4 inch by 4 inch, the Delaney RH45xx is a bulk exterior residential pair with a 5/8 inch radius, the Delaney RH40xx is a 5/8 inch radius by square pair for Castlegate doors, and the Orca Hardware 4014 series is a 4 inch by 4 inch plain bearing commercial hinge with a 1/4 inch radius corner. Confirm which radius the door was routed for, since 5/8 inch and 1/4 inch are not interchangeable.
9) Which hinge carries a bearing instead of a plain bearing for a heavy door that gets constant traffic?
The Emtek 96314 is a heavy duty solid brass hinge running on a plain bearing. Where a bearing hinge is wanted, the Ives 3CB1HW is a steel 3-knuckle concealed bearing full mortise hinge in a heavy duty rating, the Don-Jo HWBB74545 is a heavy weight full mortise ball bearing hinge at 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch in satin chrome, and the Don-Jo HWBB75045 covers the same construction at 5 inch by 4-1/2 inch. The Don-Jo sizes need a larger mortise than the Emtek's 4 inch by 4 inch prep.
10) Do the Emtek 96314 hinges come with a non-removable pin for an out-swing exterior door?
No. Finish is the only option on the 96314, so there's no NRP version of it. On an out-swing door the barrel sits outside, and a standard pin can be driven out, so that opening wants a non-removable pin or a security stud. Deltana's CSB45N is a 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch square hinge sold in pairs with a non-removable pin, and Hager's BB1168 is a heavy duty full mortise ball bearing hinge with NRP. Both are larger than 4 inches, so plan on recutting the mortise or building the opening around them.
11) What finishes does the Emtek 96314 square barrel hinge come in, and will it match my other Emtek hardware?
Ten finishes, and they use Emtek's own finish naming so they line up with the knobs and levers in the same collection: Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), 606 Satin Brass, French Antique (US7), Polished Nickel (US14), 619 Satin Nickel, Pewter (US15A), 613 Satin Bronze Oil-Rubbed, Flat Black (US19), and 625 Bright Chrome. Match the code, not the description, when you're pairing hinges to existing trim.
12) How many Emtek 96314 hinges do I need per door, and do screws come with them?
They're sold in pairs, and screws are included. A full height interior door normally hangs on three hinges, and a heavy or tall door on four, so figure two packs per three-hinge door with one hinge left over, or two packs exactly for a four-hinge door. If you're doing a run of doors, order in pairs and the spares even out. No separate screw pack needed.
13) Can I run power through the Emtek 96314 hinge for an electric strike or an access control lock?
No. The 96314 is a mechanical solid brass hinge with no wiring or transfer path through it. For a powered opening you need an electrified or energy transfer hinge in the top position: Command Access ETH-CB70 is a 3 knuckle standard weight energy transfer hinge, ETH-BB68 is the heavy duty 5 knuckle version, and BEST CECB179-12C is a steel full mortise concealed bearing electrified hinge with a 12-wire quick connect. If you also need door position monitoring, Command Access ETM-CB70 combines the transfer with a door position sensor.
14) Will the Emtek 96314 close the door on its own like a spring hinge?
No. The Emtek 96314 is a plain bearing square barrel hinge in solid brass and holds the door wherever it is left. For a self-closing opening, the Stanley Security 2060R is a full mortise spring hinge with square corners at 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch on a ferrous steel base in a heavy duty rating. That size takes a larger mortise than the Emtek's 4 inch by 4 inch cut.
15) The door needs three hinges. Is there a square corner hinge that comes as a set of three?
The Emtek 96314 solid brass square barrel hinge is sold in pairs with screws, so a three-hinge door takes two pairs. If a three-piece pack suits the door better, the Ives 1010RP is a set of three steel plain bearing residential hinges with square corners in a medium duty rating, and the Schlage Residential S3P1010 is a pack of three 3-1/2 inch by 3-1/2 inch square corner plain bearing mortise hinges, also medium duty. Both are steel rather than solid brass, and the Schlage set is cut for a 3-1/2 inch mortise instead of the Emtek's 4 inch by 4 inch.
16) What is a non-ferrous alternative to the Emtek 96314 for a coastal or high-humidity opening?
The Emtek 96314 is solid brass through the leaf and barrel, which is itself a non-ferrous base. If the schedule needs a non-ferrous hinge in a commercial 5-knuckle pattern instead, the McKinney T2314 is a non-ferrous hinge in standard weight with 5 knuckles at a medium duty rating. The difference is the barrel treatment: the Emtek is a square barrel with a stepped wing at the knuckle, while the T2314 is a conventional 5-knuckle profile.
17) What do I use when the door edge cannot take a full mortise hinge?
The Emtek 96314 is a full mortise hinge, so both the door edge and the jamb have to be routed for the leaves. When the door will not accept that prep, the Hager 1129 is a half mortise plain bearing commercial hinge at 4-1/2 inch in standard weight steel, and the Hager 990 is a full surface hinge at 3 inch by 4 inch with a welded tip in a heavy duty rating. Both mount to the face of the door rather than into the edge.
18) What does the square barrel hinge look like on a closed door, and is there anything else with that look?
With the door shut you see a clean square barrel: no screws exposed on the barrel itself, and a small step on the wing at the knuckle that sharpens the square line. That's the point of the style, a contemporary square profile instead of the rounded barrel on a standard butt hinge. The closest square barrel alternative is McKinney's SQ3331, a 2 knuckle decorative square barrel hinge in 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch and standard duty, though that larger size means a different mortise.
19) What is the difference between the Unlacquered Brass and Polished Brass finishes on the Emtek square barrel hinge?
Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) ships as bare brass with no coating, so it darkens and develops a patina from handling and humidity, and it will keep changing over the years. Polished Brass Lifetime (US3) is the coated version and holds the bright look it arrives with. Pick US3NL only if you want the living finish and your other hardware is going the same way, since a patinaing hinge next to a bright brass lockset will drift apart in a season or two.
20) Can the Emtek 96314 hang a door that swings both directions?
No. The Emtek 96314 is a full mortise hinge with a plain bearing and swings the door one way off the jamb. A door that has to push open in both directions runs on a double acting pivot such as the BEST DAP-3, a heavy duty double acting pivot for commercial interior doors in the emergency rescue hardware line. That is a different prep entirely, taken at the top and bottom of the door rather than at the hinge jamb.
21) Is the Emtek 96314 suitable for a detention or high-security opening?
No. The Emtek 96314 is a residential-rated solid brass square barrel hinge sized for doors up to 1-3/4 inches thick. Detention openings take purpose-built hinges such as the BEST BB855, a heavy-duty steel double weight concealed ball bearing prison hinge in the detention hardware line, or the Stanley Security BB855 double weight prison hinge at 5 inch by 6 inch, furnished with no holes and not swaged.
