Pemko CFS83CP-HD1 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I replace failed butt hinges without modifying the frame?
That's what the Pemko FS-CP-HD1 is built for. It's a full surface continuous geared hinge, meaning it applies to the exposed faces of the door and frame rather than into a mortise, so no frame adjustments and no special reinforcements are needed. On a retrofit where the old butt hinge cutouts are worn or the door has sagged, the full surface mount covers the existing condition instead of asking you to re-prep the frame.
2) Does the Pemko FS-CP-HD1 hinge carry a fire rating for a labeled opening?
The FS-CP-HD1 is UL 10C certified and meets ANSI/BHMA A156.26, and it also carries a Health Product Declaration. For an institutional spec that calls out A156.26 continuous hinges on rated openings, that's the pair of standards the submittal needs to show.
3) Full surface or full mortise continuous hinge, which one do I need?
Pick full surface, like the Pemko FS-CP-HD1, when you're retrofitting an existing frame and don't want to re-prep it, since it mounts on the exposed faces of door and frame. Pick full mortise when the door and frame are new or already prepped for a mortised hinge and you want the hinge concealed in the gap; ZenSupply carries the Design Hardware FMHD and the ABH A120HD in heavy duty full mortise. There's also a half surface middle ground, the ABH A460HD or the NGP HD5400A, where the frame leaf mortises and the door leaf surface applies.
4) Will the Pemko FS-CP-HD1 fit a 2-1/4 inch thick door?
No. The FS-CP-HD1 is rated for 1-3/4 inch doors. For a thicker leaf, the NGP HD5700 is a full surface continuous geared hinge listed for 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors. Confirm the leaf thickness with calipers before ordering, because a full surface hinge sized to the wrong thickness will not close the gap correctly.
5) The door is a 3/32 inch inset. Will a standard full surface continuous hinge work?
Inset dimension drives the selection. The Pemko FS-CP-HD1 is a full surface center pivot hinge specified with a 1/16 inch minimum hinge clearance. For a 3/32 inch inset door, the BEST 663HD heavy duty continuous hinge is built for that inset and is 90 minute UL fire rated. The NGP HD5700 full surface geared hinge is built around a 1/16 inch door inset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. Measure the gap between door face and frame before ordering, because a hinge cut for one inset will not sit flat on the other.
6) What full surface continuous geared hinge can replace butt hinges on a 1-3/4 inch door without frame prep?
The Pemko FS-CP-HD1 is built for exactly that swap. It is a full surface continuous geared hinge applied to the exposed faces of the door and frame, so no frame adjustment or special reinforcement is required, and it accommodates doors from 1-3/4 inches thick up to 4 feet wide with hinge lengths from 79 inches to 10 feet. Direct full surface peers include the Design Hardware FSHD heavy duty full surface continuous geared hinge and the BEST 664HD full surface continuous geared hinge, which carries a 90 minute UL fire rating. The NGP HD5700 is also a full surface geared hinge, sized for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors with a 1/16 inch door inset.
7) The frame is being replaced anyway and the hinge can be mortised in. What continuous hinge should be used instead of a full surface model?
When the opening allows mortising, a full mortise continuous geared hinge conceals the leaves in the door and frame edges rather than applying them to the faces the way the Pemko FS-CP-HD1 does. Full mortise options include the Design Hardware FMHD heavy duty continuous geared hinge, the ABH A120HD heavy duty aluminum continuous gear hinge with Easy Install Technology, and the BEST 651 stainless steel full mortise continuous hinge with hospital tips. The NGP HD1100A is a concealed continuous geared hinge in an 83 inch length. Full mortise requires edge prep on both door and frame, which is why the FS-CP-HD1 is the retrofit choice when that prep is not on the table.
8) Which continuous hinges hold a Grade 1 rating for a facility standardizing on heavy duty openings?
The Pemko FS-CP-HD1 is Grade 1, aluminum construction, certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.26 and UL 10C, rated at 1.29 lbs per foot, and carries a Health Product Declaration. Among the peers, the NGP HD1100A concealed continuous geared hinge is Grade 3. For heavy duty peers in the same class by duty level, the Design Hardware FMHD, FSHD and FSOHD and the BEST 663HD and 664HD are all heavy duty, and the ABH A120HD, A135HD, A210HD and A460HD are heavy duty aluminum gear hinges. If the spec sheet calls for Grade 1 specifically, the FS-CP-HD1 answers it directly.
9) An opening needs a hinge run taller than 83 inches. What are the options?
The Pemko FS-CP-HD1 covers hinge lengths from a 79 inch minimum up to 10 feet, and is stocked in 83 inch, 85 inch, 95 inch and 120 inch sizes in Clear Anodized Aluminum and Dark Bronze Anodized Aluminum. It can also be cut in the field for custom lengths. Several peers are catalogued at a single 83 inch length, including the NGP HD1100A, NGP HD5400A and NGP HD5700, so a tall opening in an atrium, warehouse or storefront is where the longer Pemko sizes matter.
10) Will this hinge let a door swing a full 180 degrees back against the wall?
Yes, 180 degrees is the maximum swing on the Pemko FS-CP-HD1. The center pivot geometry is what buys that, which matters on corridors and equipment rooms where a door needs to lie flat against the adjacent wall to move carts or beds through.
11) Is there a way to get a 10 foot continuous hinge shipped without a 10 foot crate?
Order the FS-CP-HD1 with the -M designation. That's Pemko's PemKonnect modular build: the hinge ships in a 45 inch box as segments that fit together on site without extra tools. On upper-floor work or anywhere freight on an oversize length is the problem, that's the version to specify.
12) I need to standardize hinges across a building with different door heights. Can I use one hinge model?
Yes. The Pemko FS-CP-HD1 covers 79 inches up to 10 feet in one model, in four stock lengths (83, 85, 95 and 120 inches), and it can be cut in the field for anything in between. Two finishes, Clear Anodized Aluminum and Dark Bronze Anodized Aluminum, cover most existing door hardware schemes, so a facility can carry one part across mixed openings.
13) Do I need to reinforce the door or frame before installing a Pemko full surface continuous hinge?
No special reinforcements are required. The FS-CP-HD1 mounts to the exposed surfaces of the door and frame with no frame adjustments, so on a retrofit you're working with the existing opening as it stands. Allow 1/16 inch minimum hinge clearance.
14) What is the difference between a full surface and a half surface continuous geared hinge?
A full surface hinge like the Pemko FS-CP-HD1 mounts to the exposed surfaces of both the door and the frame, so neither member needs mortising or special reinforcement. A half surface hinge mounts to the face of the door but into the frame rabbet, so it needs frame prep on one side. Half surface peers include the ABH A460HD heavy duty aluminum continuous gear hinge rated at 450 lbs capacity and the NGP HD5400A half surface continuous geared hinge in aluminum alloy, 83 inches, 10C fire rated 90 minutes on hollow metal. Choose by what prep the existing frame will accept.
15) For a psychiatric or behavioral health opening, which continuous hinge should be specified?
For those openings the geometry matters more than the mounting style. The ABH A135HD is a heavy duty aluminum continuous gear hinge with a safety design, and the BEST 641 steel full mortise and BEST 651 stainless steel full mortise continuous hinges are built with hospital tips. The Pemko FS-CP-HD1 is a standard full surface center pivot geared hinge intended for retrofit where butt hinges are being replaced without frame modification, so it is the right call for general commercial traffic rather than for a ligature-conscious or hospital tip specification.
16) Is a steel or stainless continuous hinge a substitute for an aluminum geared one?
They are different products. The Pemko FS-CP-HD1 is aluminum, Grade 1, certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.26 and UL 10C, and can be cut in the field for custom lengths. The BEST 641 is a steel full mortise continuous hinge listed at medium duty, and the BEST 651 is stainless steel full mortise, also listed at medium duty. Steel and stainless models are typically mortised into the door and frame edges and are not field cut the same way, so swapping material also changes the prep, the duty class and the mounting method. Match all three, not just the length.
17) Which continuous geared hinge ships in a short box for a job site with no freight dock?
The Pemko FS-CP-HD1 is offered with the -M PemKonnect designation, which ships in a 45 inch box in segments that fit together without extra tools, and the standard hinge can also be cut in the field for custom lengths. Peer heavy duty geared hinges are supplied in fixed lengths, such as the NGP HD1100A concealed hinge at 83 inches, the NGP HD5400A half surface at 83 inches and the NGP HD5700 full surface at 83 inches. The ABH A120HD full mortise gear hinge is offered with Easy Install Technology, which addresses install labor rather than shipping length.
