Kawneer KW050822-17 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door height does the Kawneer KW050822-17 continuous geared hinge cover?
The KW050822-17 is sized for door leaves from 8'1" up to 10' tall. If your Kawneer door is 8 feet or shorter, this is the wrong length part and you need the shorter hinge for that height range. Measure the actual leaf height, not the rough opening, before you order.
2) Is the KW050822-17 a genuine Kawneer part or an aftermarket hinge?
It is a genuine Kawneer service part, which is what you want when you are matching an existing Kawneer aluminum door assembly. Aftermarket continuous hinges are made to their own hole patterns and often force you to drill the leaf and frame; the Kawneer part is built to the tolerances of the original assembly.
3) What finish is the KW050822-17 continuous hinge, and will it match my storefront doors?
Clear Aluminum, applied at the factory. That is the standard mill-look anodized appearance on most Kawneer aluminum entrances and storefront framing, so it blends with clear anodized doors. If your building runs dark bronze or black anodized, this hinge will read noticeably lighter next to it.
4) Why use a continuous geared hinge instead of three butt hinges on a tall aluminum door?
A continuous geared hinge runs the full height of the leaf and spreads the door weight along the entire edge instead of concentrating it at three points. On a door 8 to 10 feet tall, that matters: butt hinges on a leaf that size tend to sag and elongate their screw holes over time. The full-length hinge also keeps the gap consistent top to bottom, which helps the exit device and closer keep working the way they were set.
5) Can I use the KW050822-17 to replace a failed hinge without pulling the whole door?
That is exactly what it is for. It is a replacement service part for Kawneer door assemblies, so on a hinge swap you are working to the existing prep rather than reworking the leaf and frame. Plan on supporting the door while the old hinge comes off, since a leaf in the 8 to 10 foot range is heavy and the continuous hinge carries it along its whole length.
6) Is this hinge rated for high-traffic commercial entrances?
Yes, the KW050822-17 is a commercial-grade part, catalogued for commercial rather than residential use, and Kawneer builds it for high-traffic door environments. It is the kind of hinge used on office building entries, school and healthcare doors, retail storefronts, and municipal buildings running Kawneer door systems.
