Hager CB1191 4/2x4/2 US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Hager CB1191 hinge be used on a fire rated door?
Only the stainless steel version. Hager states the stainless steel CB1191 complies with NFPA 80 for use on fire rated door assemblies. The brass body with stainless pin is certified to ANSI A2111 but the NFPA 80 statement is tied to the stainless model, so if the opening is a rated assembly, order the stainless steel material and a stainless finish such as 630 - Satin Stainless Steel or 629 - Bright Stainless Steel.
2) What size Hager CB1191 hinge do I need for my door?
The CB1191 comes in 4 x 4, 4.5 x 4, 4.5 x 4.5, 5 x 4, 5 x 4.5 and 5 x 5 inch sizes. Leaf height is driven by door thickness and width, and the leaf width has to be wide enough to clear the trim or frame reveal when the door swings, which is why the 4.5 and 5 inch heights are offered with narrower 4 inch widths. On a standard 1-3/4 inch commercial door, 4.5 x 4.5 is the usual starting point.
3) Can I run power through the Hager CB1191 for an electric lock or door position monitoring?
Yes, as an electric modification. The CB1191 is offered as EMN (monitor only), ETW (through-wire only), ETM (through-wire with monitoring), and with a Quick Connect configuration. Specify the modification with the hinge, since the wiring exits the hinge and needs matching door and frame prep. A plain CB1191 has no wiring in it.
4) I am replacing an existing hinge from another brand. Will the Hager CB1191 drop into the same mortise?
A full mortise hinge of the same leaf size and corner type will use the same pocket, so a 4.5 x 4.5 CB1191 goes into a 4.5 x 4.5 prep. Where it gets caught out is corner radius and screw pattern: confirm your existing prep is square corner or the matching radius before ordering. Hager publishes a commercial hinge cross reference that maps competitor model numbers to their equivalents, which is the fastest way to identify what the CB1191 replaces.
5) The CB1191 is specified but the door is heavier than medium weight - what should I use instead?
The CB1191 is built for medium weight doors or medium frequency openings. For a heavier leaf or high-traffic opening, step up to the Ives 3CB1HW, a steel heavy weight concealed bearing full mortise hinge with 3 knuckles, or the BEST CB1969R, a concealed bearing heavy weight pivot-reinforced hinge. Both keep a concealed bearing raceway while carrying a heavier duty rating than the CB1191's standard weight build.
6) I need the CB1191 with wires for an electric strike or electrified lock - what are my options?
The CB1191 is offered with EMN electric monitor only, ETW electric through-wire only, ETM through-wire with monitoring, and Quick Connect modifications, so the electrified version stays in the same 5 knuckle concealed anti-friction bearing body. If you prefer a purpose-built electrified hinge from another maker, the BEST CECB179-12C is a steel full mortise concealed bearing electrified hinge with a 12-wire quick connect, and Command Access offers the ETH-CB70 energy transfer hinge in a 3 knuckle standard weight steel base and the ETH-BB68 in a 5 knuckle heavy duty steel base. For door position monitoring, Command Access ETM-CB70 adds door position sensing on a 3 knuckle steel base and ETM-BB68 adds an integrated door position switch.
7) What is the closest equivalent to a Hager CB1191 from another manufacturer?
The Hager CB1191 is a full mortise, 5 knuckle, concealed anti-friction bearing hinge for commercial openings. The nearest cross-brand match on the same three counts is the McKinney T2314, a non-ferrous standard weight 5 knuckle hinge, and the Stanley Security FBB191 in 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch, a 5-knuckle full mortise standard weight hinge. If the knuckle count is not fixed by the rest of the opening, the Ives 3CB1 concealed bearing full mortise hinge is a medium duty concealed bearing alternative in a 3 knuckle configuration.
8) The opening needs self-closing or non-removable pin security - is the CB1191 the right hinge?
The CB1191 uses a non-rising removable pin with button tip and plug, which is a service feature, not a security or closing feature. Where the opening needs the door to close itself, the Stanley Security 2060R spring hinge is a heavy duty full mortise square corner spring hinge in 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch. Where an outswinging door needs a pin that cannot be pulled, the Deltana CSB45N is a 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch square hinge pair with a non-removable pin, and the Deltana DE44R5TA is a 4 inch by 4 inch 5/8 inch radius steel security hinge pair.
9) What looks like a CB1191 substitute but is not?
Decorative and residential hinges in the same nominal sizes are the common trap. The McKinney SQ3331 is a square barrel 2-knuckle decorative hinge at 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, which matches the CB1191 in one size but not in its 5 knuckle load-sharing barrel or its concealed anti-friction bearings. Likewise the Ives 1010RP steel plain bearing residential hinges and the Deltana DSB35 3-1/2 inch square residential hinge pair are plain bearing residential products, not commercial ANSI A2111 or A5111 hinges.
10) What is the difference between a concealed anti-friction bearing hinge and a ball bearing hinge?
The CB1191 uses two concealed nylon anti-friction bearings rather than steel ball races. The nylon is self lubricating, cushions the door, and wears very slowly, and because the bearings sit inside the knuckles there is no exposed bearing ring in the barrel, so the hinge reads as a clean 5 knuckle profile. Ball bearing hinges such as the Orca Hardware 3535 Series 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 square corner carry load on steel races instead. For medium frequency openings either approach works; the concealed nylon is chosen where appearance and quiet operation matter.
11) Does the Hager CB1191 have a removable pin, and can I service it without taking the door down?
The pin is non-rising and removable, with a button tip and plug, so it can be pulled for service with the door hung. Note that a removable pin on an outswinging exterior door is a security exposure; for those openings a non-removable pin hinge is the right call, such as the Deltana CSB45N 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 NRP square hinge.
12) Is the CB1191 brass or steel, and does it matter for a coastal or wash-down opening?
Two constructions are offered: brass with a stainless steel pin, and stainless steel with a stainless steel pin. Both avoid a plain carbon steel base, so both hold up better than a plated steel hinge in humid, coastal or frequently cleaned environments. The all stainless build, certified to ANSI A5112 with the stainless pin, is the one to specify for pool areas, kitchens and exterior salt-air openings.
13) What is a comparable 5 knuckle standard weight full mortise hinge to the Hager CB1191?
On a like for like basis, the McKinney MPB79 MacPro is a 5 knuckle standard weight hinge and the McKinney T2314 is a non-ferrous 5 knuckle standard weight hinge, which is the closest match to the CB1191 brass build. Stanley FBB191 in 4.5 x 4.5 is another 5 knuckle full mortise standard weight option. What the CB1191 adds over a plain 5 knuckle is the pair of concealed nylon anti-friction bearings.
14) Is there a simpler hinge than the Hager CB1191 for a light commercial interior door?
Yes. The CB1191 carries two concealed anti-friction nylon bearings and a 5 knuckle barrel, which is more hinge than a low-traffic interior opening needs. Orca Hardware offers medium duty plain bearing commercial hinges in 4 inch by 4 inch square corner and 4 inch by 4 inch with 1/4 inch radius corners, and the Orca 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch square corner ball bearing hinge sits between the two. Plain bearing hinges have no bearing raceway between knuckles, so they suit lighter, lower-cycle doors rather than the medium-frequency commercial service the CB1191 is built for.
15) What is the difference between the Hager CB1191 and the McKinney MP79 or MPB79 MacPro hinges?
All three are 5 knuckle standard weight full mortise hinges, so they cover the same class of opening. The McKinney MP79 and MPB79 MacPro hinges are rated standard duty. The Hager CB1191 is specified by its bearing type, two concealed anti-friction nylon bearings rather than an exposed raceway, and by its material options of brass with a stainless steel pin or stainless steel with a stainless steel pin, with the stainless build complying with NFPA 80 for fire rated assemblies.
16) Will a CB1191 work on a detention or correctional door?
No. The CB1191 is intended for medium weight doors or medium frequency commercial use in offices, schools, healthcare, retail and similar facilities. Detention openings take a purpose-built hinge such as the BEST BB855 heavy-duty steel double weight concealed ball bearing prison hinge from the detention hardware series, or the Stanley Security BB855 double weight prison hinge furnished with no holes and not swaged in 5 inch by 6 inch.
17) I need a concealed bearing electrified hinge in 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 with handing already set - is there an alternative to ordering a CB1191 with ETW?
Yes. The Stanley Security CECB1900R54L is a three knuckle concealed bearing concealed conductor architectural hinge, steel full mortise, standard weight, 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, square corner, left-handed, with 4 wires. The CB1191 route gets you a 5 knuckle barrel with two concealed anti-friction nylon bearings and your choice of ETW through-wire or ETM through-wire with monitoring, in brass with a stainless pin or all stainless. Choose on knuckle count, material and wire count for the device you are feeding.
18) Is a butt hinge like the CB1191 the right choice for a double acting door?
No. The CB1191 is a full mortise butt hinge that swings one direction. A door that must swing both ways rides on a pivot instead, such as the BEST DAP-3 heavy duty double acting pivot for commercial interior doors.
19) Which Hager CB1191 finish matches the rest of my building hardware?
Nine finishes are offered: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 629 bright stainless steel and 630 satin stainless steel. For a building standardized on US26D satin chrome levers and closers, 626 is the match; 630 is the one to pick where the rest of the openings are stainless.
20) How many CB1191 hinges do I need per door?
Hinge count follows door height, not the hinge model: three per leaf is the normal commercial practice on a 7 foot door, with a fourth added on taller or heavier leaves. Hager publishes a standard hinge locations sheet for the CB1191 that gives the layout dimensions from the head and sill, and a full mortise size chart for matching leaf size to the opening.
21) Can I use the Hager CB1191 on residential interior doors?
You can, but it is more hinge than the job needs. Hager classes the CB1191 as commercial, full mortise, and it starts at 4 x 4. For residential interior leaves at 3-1/2 x 3-1/2, plain bearing pairs like the Emtek 91013 or the Schlage Residential S3P1010 3-pack are the intended fit, and the Delaney RH35xx bulk steel residential hinges cover volume work.
22) I have brass-finished hinges on the rest of the doors - can I match them with a CB1191 or do I need a different line?
The CB1191 covers the brass and bronze range directly: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze and 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, alongside 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 629 bright stainless and 630 satin stainless. If the existing doors are lighter residential leaves rather than commercial, the Delaney CH401X 4 inch by 4 inch commercial ball bearing square corner hinge and the Emtek 96213 heavy duty hinge pair in 3-1/2 inch square corner cover that side of a building without changing the commercial doors.
