Hager HAG-780-224-83-CLR – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Hager 780-224 continuous hinge work on a 1-3/4 inch door?
That's the only thickness it fits. The 780-224 is built for 1-3/4 inch (44 mm) doors, full stop, with a 3/32 inch (2 mm) inset. If your leaf is 1-3/8 inch, this is the wrong hinge and you need a different Roton model prepped for that thickness.
2) Which length of the Hager 780-224 hinge do I order for my door height?
Three lengths are made: 79 inch, 83 inch, and 95 inch. Measure the door leaf height, not the frame opening. A standard 6'8" door takes the 79 inch, a 7'0" door the 83 inch, and an 8'0" door the 95 inch. All three come in clear aluminum, dark bronze, and black.
3) Is the Hager 780-224 hinge rated for a fire door?
Fire rated up to 3 hours on metal doors, and 90 minutes on wood composite doors when studs are used. It meets ANSI/BHMA A156.26 Grade C. On the wood composite side, the stud requirement is not optional, so specify it when the opening is a rated wood assembly.
4) Do I need to reinforce the door for a Hager 780-224 continuous geared hinge?
No reinforcement is required up to 200 lbs of door weight. Above that, use a 16-gauge channel in the door. That 200 lb threshold is the number to check first on lead-lined, heavy wood, or oversized metal leaves.
5) Can I run power through the Hager 780-224 hinge for an electric strike or card reader?
Yes. The 780-224 can be ordered with power transfer preparation for EPT 2 or EPT 10, exposed electric contacts, through-wire, and door monitoring for access control. Electric modification is specified at time of order, not added later in the field, so decide the conductor count and function with the access control drawings in hand.
6) What is the difference between a concealed leaf continuous hinge and a full mortise continuous hinge?
A concealed leaf type like the 780-224 mounts inside the door and frame rabbet so the gear housing is hidden when the door is closed, and it carries a door edge protection lip plus a frame leaf alignment rib to set the door position. A full surface continuous hinge screws onto the face of the door and frame and is the retrofit choice when you cannot machine the edge. Choose concealed leaf when appearance matters and the opening can be prepped; choose full surface when you are hanging on an existing frame you would rather not cut.
7) What fasteners come with the Hager 780-224 hinge and do I need anything else?
Standard fastening is 1/4-20 x 1-1/4 inch sexbolts (fastener plus post), which pull through the door for a clamped connection. Dril-Kwik screws or wood screws are available instead when the substrate suits them. Hager publishes templates, and you drill to those before mounting, so plan the door and frame prep as part of the job.
8) How much clearance do I need on the hinge side for a Roton 780-224?
1/16 inch on the hinge side, plus your normal lockside clearance. Get that gap right at hanging, because a geared continuous hinge runs the full height of the leaf and a tight hinge edge will bind along the whole door rather than at one knuckle.
9) Is there a version of the Hager 780 continuous hinge for a hospital x-ray room door?
A lead lined model is offered, ordered by specifying "LL". It uses a double row of fasteners so they straddle the lead in the door. That is the version for x-ray and imaging rooms, where a standard single row would land in the shielding.
10) Should I choose standard duty or heavy duty on the Hager 780-224?
Standard duty covers medium frequency openings. Heavy duty is for high frequency doors, or for heavy doors that only see medium traffic. Both are for 1-3/4 inch doors. Think entrances, stairwells, and restrooms in a school or hospital as high frequency; a tenant suite door is medium.
11) Will a continuous geared hinge stop my high traffic doors from sagging?
That's the reason to use one. A Roton geared hinge spreads the door weight along the entire length of the leaf instead of concentrating it at three or four butt hinges, which is what causes sag and screw pull-out on high traffic openings. The 6063-T6 aluminum body also won't rust, so it holds up on exterior and washdown-adjacent doors.
12) What finishes does the Hager 780-224 continuous hinge come in?
Three: clear aluminum (CLR), dark bronze (DBZ), and black (BLK). All three are offered in every length, so a building standardizing on dark bronze can carry it across 79, 83, and 95 inch openings without a finish break.
13) Can I add a hospital tip to the Hager 780-224 hinge?
Hospital tip is available as an option on the 780-224. It's the specification for healthcare and behavioral health corridors where a square hinge end can catch a gown, IV line, or bedding.
