Pemko FS-102 7FT C – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Pemko 102 continuous hinge work on a 1-3/4 inch hollow metal door I'm retrofitting?
Yes. The 102 Series full surface hinge is built for 1-3/4 inch thick doors and mounts to hollow metal, wood, or aluminum doors. Full surface means both leaves screw onto the face of the door and frame, so there's no mortising and no routing of existing prep. That's why it's the type to reach for on a retrofit: it goes over what's already there rather than requiring the door and frame be cut.
2) Do I need to order a left hand or right hand Pemko 102 hinge?
Neither. The 102 Series is non-handed, so one part covers both swings. For a property manager or a contractor stocking spares, that means a single item number covers every opening in the building instead of two.
3) Is the Pemko 102 hinge a geared continuous hinge or a pin and barrel type, and does the difference matter?
Pin and barrel, not geared. The 102 runs a continuous 3/16 inch diameter stainless steel barrel pin on medical bearings with aluminum end pins, rather than meshing gear teeth under a cap. It's extruded with 30 percent more aluminum than most geared hinges. If your spec sheet calls specifically for a geared continuous hinge, look at a geared model such as the Design Hardware Full Surface heavy duty geared hinge or the BEST 664HD full surface geared hinge instead.
4) Can one Pemko 102 hinge replace a set of three butt hinges that keep sagging?
That's the usual reason to switch. A continuous hinge like the 102 carries the door load along the entire 84 inch height instead of concentrating it on three butts, which is what stops the sag and the screw pull-out at the top hinge. Because it's full surface it goes over the existing butt hinge cutouts without the frame being repaired first, and it's non-handed so the same part fits whichever way the door swings.
5) What is the closest full surface continuous geared hinge to the Pemko 102 Series if I need a fire rated opening?
The Pemko 102 Series full surface continuous hinge is an aluminum pin and barrel hinge built to ANSI/BHMA A156.26 Grade 2 for 1-3/4 inch doors up to 4 feet wide. If the opening requires a fire label, the BEST 664HD is a heavy duty full surface continuous geared hinge carrying a 90 minute UL fire rating, and the NGP HD5700 is an 83 inch full surface continuous geared hinge that is 10C fire rated 90 minute on hollow metal and covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. Both mount full surface, so the retrofit approach stays the same as the 102.
6) The door frame has no face to mount a surface hinge against - what continuous hinge goes in instead of the Pemko 102?
The Pemko 102 Series mounts full surface, meaning both leaves fasten to the face of the door and frame. When the opening needs the hinge concealed in the mortise instead, the ABH A120HD is a full mortise heavy duty aluminum continuous geared hinge, the Design Hardware FMHD is a full mortise heavy duty continuous geared hinge, and the BEST 641 is a steel full mortise continuous hinge with hospital tips in a medium duty build. The NGP HD1100A is a concealed continuous geared hinge in an 83 inch length.
7) The Pemko 102 caps out at a 4 foot wide door - what carries a wider or heavier leaf?
The Pemko 102 Series is an aluminum hinge built to A156.26 Grade 2 and rated for a maximum door width of 4 feet at 1-3/4 inch thickness. For a heavier leaf, the ABH A460HD half surface and ABH A210HD full surface continuous geared hinges are both rated to 450 lbs capacity, and the Design Hardware FSHD full surface and FSOHD full surface offset hinges are heavy duty builds. The BEST 663HD and 664HD are also heavy duty, with the 663HD suited to 3/32 inch inset doors and the 664HD mounting full surface like the 102.
8) Are the mounting screws included with the Pemko 102 hinge, and what fasteners does it use?
A universal screw pack ships with the hinge, containing 1/4-14 x 3/4 security TORX TEK screws. TEK screws are self-drilling, so on hollow metal you're fastening through the face without pre-tapping, and the security TORX head resists removal from the door face. The mounting fasteners are concealed once installed, so nothing is exposed on the finished job.
9) Will installing a Pemko 102 hinge force me to redo the weatherstripping on the door?
No. The flush mount full surface design aligns over the existing door and frame, so weatherstripping and door prep don't have to be readjusted. That's the practical reason to pick full surface over a full mortise hinge on an occupied building: the opening comes back into service without re-cutting the frame or moving the seals.
10) Should I use a full surface continuous hinge or a full mortise one on my door?
Full surface, which is what the Pemko 102 is, mounts to the faces of the door and frame and needs no cutting, so it's the retrofit answer and the one for doors that are already hung. Full mortise sits between the door edge and the frame rabbet and gives a cleaner look on new work, but the frame has to be prepped for it. ZenSupply carries full mortise geared alternatives including the ABH A120HD and the Design Hardware full mortise heavy duty geared hinge, plus half surface options like the ABH A460HD if only the frame side can be surface applied.
11) Will an aluminum continuous hinge hold up on a high traffic entrance, or do I need steel?
The 102 is extruded 6063-T6 aluminum alloy with 30 percent more material than most geared hinges, and it's certified to A156.26 Grade 2, which puts it in commercial service on doors up to 4 feet wide at 1-3/4 inches. For an opening beyond that width or a heavier leaf, move to a heavy duty hinge: the ABH A460HD is rated at 450 lbs capacity, and BEST offers stainless steel full mortise in the 651.
12) Is a geared continuous hinge the same thing as the Pemko 102, or is it a different product?
They are not the same construction. The Pemko 102 Series uses pin and barrel construction with a 3/16 inch diameter stainless steel barrel type hinge pin running the length of the hinge. A geared continuous hinge instead meshes two toothed leaves together - the ABH A460HD, the Design Hardware FSHD, and the NGP HD5400A are all continuous geared hinges. Both types run the full height of the door and distribute weight along the edge, but the pin and barrel 102 and a geared hinge are different mechanisms, so confirm which one the door schedule calls for before ordering a swap.
13) I need a continuous hinge that will not corrode in a washdown or exterior opening - what are my options next to the Pemko 102?
The Pemko 102 Series is extruded 6063-T6 aluminum with a 3/16 inch stainless steel hinge pin, finished clear anodized or dark bronze anodized. If the specification calls for a stainless body rather than anodized aluminum, the BEST 651 is a stainless steel full mortise continuous hinge with hospital tips in a medium duty build. Note that the 651 is full mortise, so it requires frame and door preparation rather than the face mounting the 102 uses.
14) What is the difference between a full surface and a half surface continuous hinge when replacing the Pemko 102?
The Pemko 102 Series is full surface - both leaves fasten to the face of the door and the face of the frame, which is why it retrofits hollow metal, wood, or aluminum doors without new door preparation. A half surface hinge mortises into the frame and surface mounts to the door; the ABH A460HD and the NGP HD5400A are half surface continuous geared hinges. A half surface unit is not a drop-in for a 102 because the frame side needs to be prepped, so match the mounting type to what is already cut into the opening.
15) Can I standardize a facility on the Pemko 102 Series, or do I need more than one continuous hinge across the building?
The Pemko 102 Series is non-handed, so a single part covers both left and right hand openings, and it meets ANSI/BHMA A156.26 Grade 2 for commercial use on 1-3/4 inch doors up to 4 feet wide. Openings that fall outside that will need a second line item: fire labeled doors take the BEST 664HD full surface or NGP HD5700, both 90 minute rated; mortised frames take the ABH A120HD or Design Hardware FMHD full mortise units; and swing clear openings take the ABH A210HD. Spec the 102 as the base and add those where the opening schedule requires.
16) What finishes does the Pemko 102 continuous hinge come in?
Clear anodized (628) and dark bronze anodized (313) are the standard finishes. Clear anodized is what's stocked, and it's the one that matches the aluminum storefront and hollow metal frames most commercial openings already have. 628 and 313 are the BHMA finish codes, so they'll match to other hardware specified by the same numbers.
