Kawneer KW050820-17 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door height does the Kawneer KW050820-17 continuous geared hinge cover?
The KW050820-17 is sized for door heights up to 7 feet. It is a full-length continuous geared hinge, so it runs the height of the leaf rather than using individual butt hinges. If your opening carries a taller leaf, this part number is not the one to order.
2) Is the KW050820-17 a genuine Kawneer part or an aftermarket hinge?
It is a genuine Kawneer service part, carried as a Kawneer replacement component for Kawneer door systems. For a property manager or glass front installer restoring an existing Kawneer entrance, that matters: the hinge is built to the original Kawneer specification so it fits the factory prep instead of requiring the leaf and frame to be re-machined.
3) What finish is the Kawneer KW050820-17 hinge and will it match my aluminum storefront doors?
Clear aluminum, factory applied. That is the standard mill finish on most commercial aluminum entrance and storefront systems, so it blends with clear anodized leaves and frames. If your entrance is dark bronze or black anodized, a clear aluminum hinge will read lighter than the surrounding metal.
4) Is a continuous geared hinge better than butt hinges for a high traffic aluminum entrance?
A continuous geared hinge like the KW050820-17 carries the leaf along its entire height instead of at two or three points, so the load is spread out rather than concentrated at each butt hinge. On aluminum storefront doors that see constant use, office entrances, schools, retail, healthcare, that is the usual reason to go continuous: the pivot points are where aluminum leaves sag and rack first. Butt hinges remain the simpler swap only when the door was originally prepped for them.
5) Will the KW050820-17 work on a door with a Kawneer exit device already installed?
Yes. The KW050820-17 is a hinge for Kawneer door assemblies that carry Kawneer exit devices, so it is compatible with an existing Kawneer panic on the same leaf. The hinge and the exit device are independent hardware on the door, one at the hinge stile and one across the leaf.
6) Is the KW050820-17 hinge rated for commercial use or is it a residential part?
Commercial. The KW050820-17 is a commercial-grade part intended for entrance and storefront door assemblies, including office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, government buildings, and warehouse access points. It is not a residential hinge.
