Dormakaba CB199 4-1/2x4-1/2 32D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Stanley Security CB199 hinge work on an office building entrance door that gets constant traffic?
That's exactly the opening the CB199 is built for. It's a heavy duty, heavy weight concealed bearing hinge intended for heavy doors or high frequency openings, the description calls out entrance doors to office buildings, stores, public buildings, and corridor entrance doors. The concealed LifeSpan bearing is maintenance free, so there's no oiling or greasing on a service schedule. If the door is a light interior one seeing normal traffic, a standard weight hinge like the Stanley Security CB1960R covers it without paying for heavy weight.
2) Do I need to specify handing when ordering a CB199 hinge?
No handing to call out. The CB199 has reversible flush tips and pins, so the same hinge works on a left hand or right hand door, you just orient it. What you do specify is size and finish. That also means one part number covers both swings across a building, which simplifies stocking a fleet of openings.
3) Can the CB199 hinge be used on hollow metal frames as well as wood doors?
Both. Every hinge in the line carries template screw hole location, which means the hole pattern matches the standard template used on wood and hollow metal doors and frames alike. It's a full mortise hinge, so both leaves mortise in, one into the door edge and one into the frame rabbet, and both members have to be prepped for it.
4) Square corner or radius corner hinge, which do I need to match my existing door prep?
The CB199 is a square corner hinge. If the existing mortise in your door and frame has square corners (typical of hollow metal and routered wood prep), it drops into the same pocket. A prep with rounded corners was cut for a radius corner hinge and a square corner leaf will not seat in it without reworking the mortise. Check one existing hinge pocket before you order.
5) Can I take the door down without removing the whole hinge on a CB199?
Yes, the pin is removable and there's a hole in the bottom tip so you can drive it out from underneath with a pin punch. Pull the pins and the door lifts off while the leaves stay screwed to the door and frame, which is what you want for painting, moving equipment, or swapping a door leaf. Note the pin is removable, not non-removable (NRP), so on an out-swinging exterior door where the barrel is on the unsecured side you want an NRP or security stud hinge instead.
6) Will a CB199 give the clear opening width needed for an ADA accessible route, or is a swing clear hinge required?
The CB199 is a conventional full mortise hinge, so the open door leaf still sits in part of the opening. Where the door has to swing fully clear of the opening to gain clear width, the BEST CB248 is the full mortise concealed bearing swing clear hinge for square edge doors, rated medium duty, and the Hager 1260 is the full mortise swing clear hinge with a 5 knuckle plain bearing design, rated heavy duty. Both are swing clear geometries the CB199 does not provide; the CB248 keeps the concealed bearing, and the 1260 keeps the heavy duty rating.
7) Does the CB199 support an electric transfer for an electrified lock, or is a separate hinge needed?
The CB199 is a mechanical hinge with a removable pin and a concealed bearing; power transfer through the hinge is a separate part. The ACSI 5BB1 is the 5 knuckle ball bearing full mortise hinge at 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 inches with a concealed electric through-wire, 4 wire at 28 gauge, in the 1100 Series. On an opening with an electric strike, electrified lever or card reader that needs power crossing from frame to door, that through-wire hinge is the one that carries the conductors, and the remaining hinges on the leaf can stay conventional.
8) What hinge should be used instead of the CB199 on a beveled edge door?
The BEST CB223 is the concealed bearing heavy weight hinge built for beveled edge doors, and it is pivot reinforced. The Stanley Security CB199 is a plain full mortise concealed bearing heavy weight hinge without a bevel or pivot reinforced designation, so the edge condition of the door leaf decides between them. For a square edge door needing the same pivot reinforcement, the BEST FBB212 is the square edge pivot reinforced hinge, though it uses a ball bearing rather than a concealed bearing and is rated standard duty.
9) What is the closest heavy weight full mortise hinge to the Stanley Security CB199 if a different brand is specified?
The McKinney TCA3386 is the nearest match in the square corner, 5 knuckle, full mortise heavy weight class at 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 inches, the same size as one of the CB199 sizes. The difference to check is bearing style: the CB199 uses a concealed bearing, so the knuckle reads as a plain barrel with no exposed bearing races, while the TCA3386 is catalogued as a heavy weight full mortise hinge without a concealed bearing callout. On an office building or corridor entrance opening where the hinges are visible, that changes the look of the barrel even though both carry heavy weight doors.
10) Can a standard weight concealed bearing hinge be used instead of the Stanley Security CB199 on an interior office door?
On a lower frequency interior door, the Stanley Security CB1960R is the standard weight concealed bearing hinge in the same Architectural Hinges family, carrying a medium duty rating rather than the heavy duty rating of the CB199. Both are full mortise concealed bearing hinges, so the mortise prep and the clean barrel appearance carry over. The CB199 is the one specified for heavy doors and high frequency openings such as building entrances, stores and corridor entrances to offices; the CB1960R is the medium duty member of that family. The BEST 1900R is the equivalent steel standard weight concealed bearing hinge with a removable pin, also medium duty and also in the Architectural Hinges series.
11) The door has to clear trim or open past 180 degrees. Is there a wide throw version of the CB199?
For a door that must swing past obstructing trim, the Hager WTBB1168 is the wide throw hinge in this class, 4-1/2 by 6 inches, heavy weight with 5 knuckles and a ball bearing. The extra leaf width is what throws the door clear of the casing. The Stanley Security CB199 comes in 4-1/2 by 4 inch, 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 inch and 4-1/2 by 5 inch sizes, all conventional throw, so a deep reveal or projecting trim is the case that moves an order from the CB199 to the wide throw hinge.
12) What sizes and finishes does the Stanley CB199 concealed bearing hinge come in?
Three heights, all 4-1/2 inches wide across the leaf pair: 4-1/2 x 4, 4-1/2 x 4-1/2, and 4-1/2 x 5 inches. Each of the three is offered in both finishes, 626 satin chromium plated (brass or bronze base) and 630 satin stainless steel. That's the full range, six combinations. The 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 is the common commercial size for a 1-3/4 inch door; go to 4-1/2 x 5 when trim, a wrap, or a heavier door needs more leaf.
13) Which CB199 finish do I order, 626 or 630, and what's the actual difference?
The difference is base material, not just color. 626 is satin chromium plated over a brass or bronze hinge; 630 is satin stainless steel, unplated. Visually they're close enough to sit next to each other in a corridor. For exterior openings, coastal sites, pool rooms, kitchens, or anywhere it gets wet, take 630 stainless. For dry interior work, 626 matches the satin chrome trim already on most commercial buildings. Pins in the non-ferrous hinges are stainless steel either way.
14) What is a concealed bearing hinge and is it better than ball bearing for a high traffic door?
They do the same job, carry the door's weight on a bearing so it swings freely, but the bearing sits inside the knuckle on a concealed bearing hinge rather than showing as a visible ring between knuckles. So the CB199 reads as a clean 5 knuckle barrel with no exposed bearing races, which architects usually want on a public-facing opening. Ball bearing heavy weight alternatives include the McKinney TCA3386 and the Hager WTBB1168. Skip plain bearing hinges like the Hager 1279 on a high frequency door, plain bearing is metal on metal and is meant for lighter, lower traffic use.
15) What is the difference between the Stanley Security CB199 and a plain bearing commercial hinge like the Hager 1279?
The Hager 1279 is a full mortise commercial hinge with 5 knuckles and a plain bearing, rated medium duty. The CB199 also has 5 knuckles and a full mortise leaf, but runs a concealed LifeSpan bearing that is maintenance free, needing no oil and no grease, and is rated heavy duty for entrance and corridor openings. A plain bearing hinge has no bearing element between the knuckles; that is the mechanical distinction, and it is what governs how the two behave on a door cycled all day. The Hager 1541 is the plain bearing residential hinge in stainless steel with a 5 knuckle design, while the CB199 is a commercial hinge.
16) Is a Don-Jo BB84545 or BB94545 a drop-in equal to the Stanley Security CB199 in 4-1/2 by 4-1/2?
They share the size and the leaf pattern but not the class. The Don-Jo BB84545 is a brass full mortise ball bearing hinge in satin chrome at 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 inches and the BB94545 is the stainless steel version with square corners, both rated standard duty, and the BB74545 is the steel square corner 5 knuckle version, also standard duty. The CB199 is rated heavy duty with a concealed bearing, and is offered in 626 satin chrome for the brass and bronze material and 630 satin stainless steel. So the finish and size line up with the Don-Jo hinges, while the duty rating and the bearing style do not. Where the specification calls for a heavy weight hinge on an entrance or corridor door, the Don-Jo standard duty hinges are a different class of part.
17) What matches a CB199 in 4-1/2 by 4 inch satin chrome across the doors of a building?
In that size and finish the Stanley Security CB199 is offered as 4-1/2 by 4 inch in 626 satin chrome, where 626 is the satin chromium plated finish on brass or bronze. The Don-Jo BB74540 is the other 4-1/2 by 4 inch full mortise ball bearing hinge in satin chrome, rated standard duty. Matching a fleet of doors on appearance, the two read the same at that size and finish; the CB199 is the heavy duty concealed bearing hinge, so on the high traffic leaves in the same building the CB199 is the one that carries the entrance and corridor door duty.
18) How many CB199 hinges do I need per door?
Standard practice on commercial openings is three hinges for a door up to 7 feet 6 inches tall, and one more for every additional 30 inches of height. Heavy or high frequency doors, which is what the heavy weight CB199 is meant for, are the ones where skimping to two shows up as sag. Hinges are sold individually here, so order per leaf and per opening.
19) Is the Stanley CB199 hinge suitable for residential doors?
It's a commercial hinge, heavy weight and heavy duty, and it's more hinge than a house door needs. It will work on residential doors, and some people use it on very heavy solid core or oversized entry doors, but for standard residential work a lighter hinge is the sensible spec. The Hager 1541 is a stainless steel 5 knuckle full mortise residential hinge if that's what the job calls for.
