Hager ECBB1102 4.5 X 4.5 US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Hager ECBB1102 hinge be used on a fire rated door?
Yes. The ECBB1102 complies with NFPA 80 for use on fire rated door assemblies, and it carries ANSI A8112. That combination is what a facility inspector looks for on a labeled opening, so it is a legitimate choice for corridor and stair doors in schools, hospitals and office buildings.
2) Do I need the NRP option on an out-swinging exterior door?
Yes, and it's the reason the option exists. The standard ECBB1102 uses a non-rising removable pin with tip and plug, which is fine on an in-swinging door where the barrel is on the secure side. On an out-swing, the pin is exposed and someone can drive it out, so order the Non-Removable Pin (NRP) version. It's available on both the 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 and 5 x 4-1/2 sizes.
3) What's the difference between the Hager ECBB1102 and a standard weight hinge like the Don-Jo BB74545?
Weight class. The ECBB1102 is a heavy duty full mortise ball bearing hinge; the Don-Jo BB74545 is a standard duty 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 steel, square corner, five knuckle hinge. Both are five knuckle full mortise, so they drop into the same style of prep, but a heavy or high frequency door wants the heavy weight. For a moderate use interior door the standard duty is the right amount of hinge.
4) I need power transfer through the hinge for an electric lock. Is the ECBB1102 the right one?
No. The ECBB1102 is a mechanical hinge with no electrical option, so it won't carry wire to an electrified lock or exit device. For a through-wire hinge, the ACSI 5BB1 is a five knuckle ball bearing full mortise hinge, 4-1/2 x 4-1/2, with concealed electric through-wire (4 wire, 28 gauge). Hang the door on standard hinges and put the electric one in the middle position.
5) I need the door to swing clear of the opening for ADA width - does the Hager ECBB1102 do that?
No. The Hager ECBB1102 is a conventional full mortise hinge and the door leaf stays in the opening when open. The BEST CB248 is a steel full mortise concealed bearing swing clear hinge for square edge doors, which moves the leaf out of the clear width path. Choose the CB248 where clear opening width is the controlling requirement; note it is rated medium duty rather than the heavy duty rating of the ECBB1102.
6) What should I use instead of the Hager ECBB1102 on a beveled edge door that needs pivot reinforcement?
The BEST CB223 is a stainless steel concealed bearing heavy weight pivot reinforced hinge made for beveled edge doors. The Hager ECBB1102 is a standard full mortise ball bearing hinge without pivot reinforcement, so for a beveled edge opening calling for a reinforced leaf the CB223 is the one to spec. For a square edge door with the same pivot reinforcement, the BEST FBB212 is the ball bearing version.
7) Is the Hager ECBB1102 heavy enough for a high traffic entry door?
That's exactly what it's built for. Heavy duty rating, full mortise, five knuckles and ball bearings for high frequency service. The bearings carry the door's weight instead of letting the knuckles grind, which is what keeps a busy entrance from sagging and dragging after a year. For a low traffic interior office door you don't need this much hinge.
8) What finish should I order to match the rest of my door hardware?
The ECBB1102 is offered in 626 satin chrome, which is the most common commercial finish and matches satin chrome levers, closers and exit device trim. Both hinge sizes are available in it, with or without NRP.
9) What else could I use if I want a heavy weight hinge from a different brand?
Two close ones. The McKinney TCA3386 is a square corner, five knuckle full mortise hinge, 4-1/2 by 4-1/2, heavy weight. The Stanley Security CB199 is a full mortise heavy weight hinge but uses concealed bearings rather than exposed ball bearings, so the barrel looks smooth instead of showing bearing races between the knuckles. If the specifier called out a visible ball bearing barrel, stay with the ball bearing type.
10) I'm replacing an old hinge and don't know what the Hager equivalent is. How do I cross it over?
Hager publishes a commercial hinge cross reference that maps competitor hinge numbers to the matching Hager part, which is the fastest way to confirm whether the ECBB1102 is the right swap for what's already in the frame. Measure the existing leaf height and width first, since a cross only helps if the mortise size matches.
11) What is the difference between the Hager ECBB1102 and the Don-Jo BB94545 or BB84545?
All three are 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 full mortise ball bearing hinges, but the material and weight class differ. The Don-Jo BB94545 is stainless steel with a square corner and the BB84545 is brass in satin chrome, both rated standard duty. The Hager ECBB1102 is a heavy duty commercial hinge with a 5-knuckle design and four ball bearings, offered in a 626 satin chrome finish in 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 and 5 by 4-1/2 sizes.
12) Can I use a BEST 1900R or Stanley CB1960R where the ECBB1102 is specified?
Only if the spec allows a lighter hinge. The BEST 1900R is a steel full mortise concealed bearing standard weight hinge with a removable pin and the Stanley Security CB1960R is a full mortise concealed bearing standard weight hinge, both rated medium duty. The Hager ECBB1102 is a heavy duty hinge built for heavy weight doors in high frequency service, so on an opening specified for heavy weight the standard weight hinges are not a like-for-like swap.
13) If I need a 4-1/2 by 4 inch hinge rather than a square 4-1/2, what replaces the ECBB1102?
The Hager ECBB1102 is offered in 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 and 5 by 4-1/2. For a narrower 4-1/2 by 4 inch leaf, the Don-Jo BB74540 is a full mortise ball bearing hinge in 4-1/2 by 4 inch, satin chrome, rated standard duty. Verify the existing frame mortise before switching leaf widths.
14) How do the McKinney TCA2314 and TCA2317 compare to the Hager ECBB1102?
The McKinney TCA2314 and TCA2317 are both square corner 5 knuckle full mortise hinges in 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 rated standard duty. The Hager ECBB1102 shares the 5-knuckle full mortise format in that size but is a heavy duty ball bearing hinge for heavy weight doors, and it complies with NFPA80 for fire rated door assemblies. For standard weight openings the McKinney pair is the lighter-class choice.
15) How do I lay out the hinge locations on the door and frame?
Hager publishes a standard hinge location sheet that gives the dimensions from the head and the floor for two, three and four hinge openings, and that's the layout to template from before you route anything. Mark the frame first, then transfer to the door so the leaves line up.
16) Is the ECBB1102 hinge handed?
No. It's a full mortise hinge with a five knuckle barrel and a removable pin, so the same hinge works on a left hand or right hand door. What you do have to decide is the pin: order NRP if the barrel ends up on the outside of an out-swinging door.
