Hager 1744 4X4 US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How heavy a door will the Hager 1744 spring hinge hold?
The 1744 spring hinge is rated for doors of 45 to 75 lbs. That covers a typical hollow-core or solid-core residential interior door and most residential entry doors. Above 75 lbs you are outside what this hinge is rated to self-close, and heavier openings call for a full-size closer or a heavier hinge with a surface closer instead.
2) How many Hager 1744 spring hinges do I need per door?
Spring hinges work in sets, and the 1744 is packaged as a 2-pack with screws, or you can order a single piece. On a standard residential door hung on three hinges, the usual arrangement is two spring hinges carrying the closing force with a plain hinge in the third position, so one 2-pack finishes a door. Tension is adjustable on each hinge, so both should be set to the same tension to keep the closing speed even.
3) Is the Hager 1744 spring hinge rated for commercial doors or just residential?
It is a residential-grade hinge. The 1744 conforms to BHMA ANSI A156.17 Grade 1, which is the spring hinge standard, but Hager classifies it for residential use, so apartment and condo unit doors, interior room doors and single-family openings are its territory. For a commercial opening carrying traffic volumes and a fire door assembly, a ball bearing or concealed bearing commercial hinge with a surface closer is the correct route.
4) I need a hinge for a heavy commercial door - is the Hager 1744 the right choice?
The Hager 1744 is designated for residential use, so a heavy commercial door is outside what it is intended for. For that opening, look at heavy duty full mortise hinges such as the McKinney TCA3386, a 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch square corner 5-knuckle heavy weight hinge, the Stanley Security CB199 full mortise concealed bearing heavy weight hinge, or the BEST FBB212 steel ball bearing pivot reinforced hinge for square edge doors. Note that none of those are self-closing, so a heavy commercial opening that must close itself will need a door closer.
5) What is the difference between the Hager 1744 spring hinge and a standard ball bearing hinge like the Don-Jo BB74545?
The Hager 1744 is a spring hinge - it carries the door and closes it, so no separate closer is needed on the opening. The Don-Jo BB74545 is a full mortise ball bearing hinge in 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch steel with square corners and a 5-knuckle barrel, rated standard duty; it pivots freely and leaves closing to a door closer or nothing at all. The 1744 is a 3-knuckle hinge with 1/4 inch radius corners. If the door must self-close, the spring hinge is the one that does it; if the door should stay where you put it, the ball bearing hinge is the right pick.
6) I need a hinge that gives a wheelchair a clear doorway - does the Hager 1744 do that?
No. The Hager 1744 is a conventional full mortise spring hinge; its leaves stay in the opening when the door swings. To gain the extra clear width, use a swing clear hinge such as the BEST CB248, a steel full mortise concealed bearing swing clear hinge for square edge doors, rated medium duty. It swings the door fully out of the opening so the frame width is the clear width, but it is not a self-closing hinge.
7) Does the Hager 1744 spring hinge come with screws for both wood and metal frames?
Both sets are in the box. The 2-pack ships with 12-24 x 1/2" machine screws for hollow metal frames and 1-1/4" x 12 wood screws for wood jambs and doors, so you don't need to source fasteners separately for either substrate.
8) Is the Hager 1744 a ball bearing hinge?
No. The 1744 is a plain bearing spring hinge with a 3 knuckle barrel, the spring mechanism sits in the knuckle rather than a bearing race. If you need bearings for a heavier or higher-cycle door, the Don-Jo BB74545 is a 4-1/2" x 4-1/2" steel five knuckle ball bearing full mortise hinge, and the Don-Jo BB84545 is the brass version in satin chrome. Those are not self-closing, so they pair with a closer.
9) Do I need to order a left hand or right hand version of the Hager 1744?
No handing to specify. The 1744 is offered by size and finish only, 4" x 4" across six finishes, and full mortise hinges of this type mount to either jamb. Spring tension is set after installation to suit the direction of swing and the door weight.
10) Can I use the Hager 1744 on a stairwell or garage-to-house door that needs to self-close?
For a self-closing residential door in that weight band, the 1744 does the job, it is a spring hinge rated 45 to 75 lbs with adjustable tension. What it will not do is satisfy a fire door assembly requirement, since it is a residential-grade product under ANSI A156.17. Where a labeled fire door is involved, use hardware listed for that assembly.
11) Can the Hager 1744 carry electrified hardware power through the door?
No. The Hager 1744 is a mechanical spring hinge with no wiring path through the barrel. When the opening needs power transferred to an electric lock or exit device, use an electric through-wire hinge such as the ACSI 5BB1, an Ives-pattern 5 knuckle ball bearing full mortise hinge, 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, with concealed electric through-wire in a 4 wire 28 gauge configuration. It is a bearing hinge, so it will not close the door on its own.
12) For a coastal or wash-down opening, is there a stainless option instead of the Hager 1744?
The Hager 1744 is offered with a stainless steel body and stainless steel pin as well as brass with a stainless pin, so it can suit a damp environment while still self-closing the door. If you would rather have a bearing hinge in stainless, the Don-Jo BB94545 is a 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch stainless steel full mortise ball bearing hinge with square corners, and the BEST CB223 is a stainless steel concealed bearing heavy weight hinge for beveled edge doors.
13) What should I use instead of the Hager 1744 if I want to pull the pin to take the door off?
The Hager 1744 is a spring hinge and is set up for spring tension adjustment rather than quick pin removal. If servicing the door by lifting it off the hinges matters, the BEST 1900R is a steel full mortise concealed bearing standard weight hinge with a removable pin, rated medium duty. The Stanley Security CB1960R is the same family of full mortise concealed bearing standard weight hinge. Neither self-closes the door.
14) What finishes does the Hager 1744 spring hinge come in?
Six finishes on the 4" x 4" size: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 609 antique brass, US10A antique bronze, 625 bright chrome and 626 satin chrome. For a building where you are matching existing hardware across units, 626 satin chrome is the closest match to satin nickel style trim and 606 satin brass to brushed brass lever sets.
