BEST BEST-CB199NRP-626-4.5x4.5 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the BEST CB199NRP hinge work on an outswing exterior door where the hinges are exposed?
Yes, that is exactly what the NRP suffix is for. The CB199NRP ships with a non-removable pin, so the pin cannot be driven out from the barrel side once the door is closed. On an outswing opening the knuckles sit outside the secure side, and a standard removable-pin hinge lets someone pull the pin and lift the door off. If your opening swings in and the hinges are on the protected side, you don't need NRP.
2) Do I need a heavy weight hinge or will a standard weight one do?
Weight and traffic decide it. The CB199NRP is a heavy duty, heavy weight concealed bearing hinge built for entrance doors on office buildings, stores, and public buildings, the openings that get cycled all day and hang thick or oversized leaves. For a standard weight commercial door at ordinary traffic, the BEST CB1960 series concealed bearing hinge is the standard weight version of the same design, and Don-Jo's BB74545 ball bearing hinge is a standard duty option in the same 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 square corner size. Undersizing a hinge on a heavy door shows up as sag and a door that stops latching.
3) Can the BEST CB199NRP be used on hollow metal frames as well as wood doors?
Both. The CB199NRP uses template screw hole locations, meaning the holes fall on the standard pattern that wood doors and frames and hollow metal doors and frames are prepped to. If your existing openings were prepped for a template hinge of the same size, the screw holes line up.
4) Is the BEST CB199NRP hinge handed, or does one part number cover both left and right doors?
One part number covers both. The flush tips and pins are reversible, so the same hinge installs on a left hand or right hand opening without ordering a handed version. You only need to pick size and finish.
5) Which hinge size do I order, 4-1/2 or 5 inch?
Hinge height follows door thickness and width, and hinge width follows how far the door has to clear the trim. The CB199NRP comes 4-1/2 x 4-1/2, 4-1/2 x 5, and 5 x 5. The 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 is the common commercial size. The 4-1/2 x 5 gives extra leaf width to push the door away from deep casing or a thick frame return. The 5 x 5 is for the tallest and heaviest leaves. If you need considerably more clearance than 5 inches of width gives, that is a wide throw hinge, like the Hager WTBB1168 at 4-1/2 x 6.
6) What do I order if the opening needs power transfer through the hinge instead of the CB199NRP?
The ACSI 5BB1 is a 5 knuckle ball bearing full mortise hinge, 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, with a concealed electric through-wire, 4 wire at 28 gauge, in the 1100 Series. That through-wire is what carries power across the gap to an electrified lock, exit device, or monitoring contact in the door. The CB199NRP is a mechanical concealed bearing hinge with a non-removable pin and does not transfer power, so an electrified opening takes the 5BB1 at the power transfer location and conventional hinges elsewhere in the set.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the BEST CB199NRP heavy weight concealed bearing hinge?
The CB199 from Stanley Security is the same architectural hinge in heavy duty concealed bearing form, sharing the CB199 full mortise concealed bearing heavy weight platform and the Architectural Hinges series. The difference sits in the pin: the CB199NRP carries a non-removable pin for openings where the hinge is exposed on the outswing side, while the CB199 is the standard version of that same heavy weight concealed bearing hinge. If an opening does not need the non-removable pin feature, the CB199 covers the same duty level.
8) What hinge gives an ADA clear opening width on a heavy door - can the CB199NRP do that?
The Hager 1260 is a full mortise swing clear hinge with a 5-knuckle plain bearing design, rated heavy duty. A swing clear hinge carries the door leaf out of the opening when it swings, which is how a corridor or patient room door recovers the clear width the door thickness takes away. The CB199NRP is a conventional full mortise heavy duty hinge and does not swing the door clear of the opening, so where clear width governs, the 1260 is the hinge that changes the geometry.
9) What concealed bearing hinge should I use on a standard weight interior door instead of the CB199NRP?
The Stanley Security CB1960R is the standard weight concealed bearing full mortise hinge in the same Architectural Hinges series, rated medium duty. The CB199NRP is a heavy duty hinge built for heavy weight doors and high-frequency entrance traffic; on ordinary interior office and tenant doors that do not carry that weight or cycle count, the CB1960R is the standard weight member of the same concealed bearing family.
10) I need a heavy weight hinge that clears trim or a thick jamb - what do I use instead of the CB199NRP?
The Hager WTBB1168 is a 4-1/2 inch by 6 inch full mortise ball bearing wide throw hinge, heavy weight, with 5 knuckles. The extra leaf width is what swings the door clear of projecting trim, a thick jamb, or a wall return. The CB199NRP is a standard throw heavy duty hinge sized 4-1/2 by 4-1/2, 4-1/2 by 5, and 5 by 5 inches, so it does not add throw; when the door needs to open past an obstruction, the wide throw WTBB1168 is the geometry that does it.
11) Is the McKinney TCA3386 an alternative to the BEST CB199NRP?
Yes, in duty class. The McKinney TCA3386 is a square corner 5 knuckle full mortise hinge, 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, heavy weight, rated heavy duty - the same square corner 5-knuckle full mortise format and duty level as the CB199NRP in its 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 size. Where they part company is security: the CB199NRP carries a non-removable pin to prevent the hinge being taken apart from the exposed side, so on an outswing exterior or a secured room the pin type is the deciding attribute rather than the duty level.
12) The existing hinge measures 4-1/2 by 4 inches - does the CB199NRP match that cutout?
No. The CB199NRP is built in 4-1/2 by 4-1/2, 4-1/2 by 5, and 5 by 5 inch sizes. For a 4-1/2 inch by 4 inch mortise the matching part is the Don-Jo BB74540, a full mortise ball bearing hinge in 4-1/2 inch by 4 inch, satin chrome, rated standard duty. Hinge leaf height has to match the existing mortise in the door edge and jamb or the prep has to be reworked, so the 4 inch leaf is the direct fit for that opening.
13) What sizes and finishes does the BEST CB199NRP heavy weight hinge come in?
Three sizes, 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 inches, 4-1/2 x 5 inches, and 5 x 5 inches, each in three finishes: 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 626 satin chrome, and 630 satin stainless steel. Every finish is offered in all three sizes, so you can standardize a building on one finish and still step up the hinge size on the wider or heavier leaves. All are square corner.
14) What is the difference between a concealed bearing hinge and a ball bearing hinge?
It is where the bearing sits. The CB199NRP carries a concealed LifeSpan bearing, so the bearing is hidden inside the knuckle rather than showing as a visible bearing race between knuckles, and it runs without oil or grease. A ball bearing hinge like the Hager WTBB1168 or the Don-Jo BB series carries the bearing openly between knuckles. Functionally both let a heavy door swing under load; the concealed version gives a cleaner knuckle line on an opening where the hinge is visible, and there is no lubrication to maintain.
15) Do the corners on the BEST CB199NRP need to match my existing door prep?
They do. The CB199NRP has square corners, which is the standard prep on hollow metal frames and most commercial wood doors. If your existing door and frame are routed with radius corner pockets, a square corner hinge leaves a gap at each corner and the leaf will not sit flush without re-routing. Pull one existing hinge and look at the pocket before ordering.
16) Will a non-removable pin hinge still let me take the door down for maintenance?
Not by pulling the pin from the barrel. The NRP pin is retained, so removing the door means backing the screws out of the hinge leaves at the jamb instead. On a fleet of units where doors come off routinely for turns, that is a real difference in labor. Where security on the swing side is not the concern, the same concealed bearing heavy weight hinge is offered without the NRP feature as the CB199.
17) Is a plain bearing hinge good enough for a commercial entrance door?
Not for a heavy, high-frequency opening. Plain bearing hinges such as the Hager 1279 (medium duty) or the Hager 1541 rely on metal-to-metal knuckle contact, which is fine on lighter or lower-traffic doors. The CB199NRP is a concealed bearing, heavy duty hinge intended for entrance doors on office buildings, stores, and public buildings, where the bearing is carrying constant cycling under real weight. If the opening is a low-traffic interior door, the plain bearing option is the right spend.
18) Is a ball bearing hinge like the Don-Jo BB74545 the same thing as the CB199NRP?
They are different bearing designs at different duty levels. The Don-Jo BB74545 is a full mortise ball bearing hinge, 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, steel, square corner, 5-knuckle, rated standard duty. The CB199NRP uses a concealed bearing rather than an exposed ball bearing knuckle and is rated heavy duty. Both are 5-knuckle square corner full mortise hinges, so the door and frame prep is the familiar full mortise cutout, but a standard duty ball bearing hinge is not a swap for a heavy weight opening.
19) What is the difference between the CB199NRP and a plain bearing hinge like the Hager 1279?
The Hager 1279 is a full mortise plain bearing commercial hinge with 5 knuckles, rated medium duty. Plain bearing means the knuckles ride on machined bearing surfaces rather than a bearing assembly. The CB199NRP uses a concealed LifeSpan bearing that runs without oil or grease and is rated heavy duty for entrance doors to office buildings, stores, and public buildings. For a medium duty commercial door at ordinary traffic, the 1279 is the plain bearing choice; for high-frequency heavy weight openings, the concealed bearing construction is what the CB199NRP brings.
20) Can I use the Hager 1541 in place of the CB199NRP on an apartment entry door?
The Hager 1541 is a full mortise residential hinge with stainless steel construction, 5 knuckle, plain bearing design. It is built for residential openings. The CB199NRP is specified commercial and heavy duty, for high-frequency applications such as entrance doors to office buildings, stores, and public buildings. On a multi-family building entry or a corridor door that cycles all day, the commercial heavy duty hinge is the one matched to the traffic; the 1541 suits residential unit doors.
21) I need a satin chrome full mortise hinge in stainless or brass - how do the Don-Jo BB84545 and BB94545 compare to the CB199NRP?
The Don-Jo BB84545 is a full mortise ball bearing hinge, 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, brass in satin chrome, and the BB94545 is the stainless steel version, 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, square corner. Both are rated standard duty. The CB199NRP is offered in 626 satin chrome as well as 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed and 630 satin stainless steel, and is a heavy duty concealed bearing hinge with a non-removable pin. If the requirement is matching a satin chrome finish on a standard duty door, the Don-Jo pair covers it; if the door is heavy weight or needs the non-removable pin, the CB199NRP in 626 is the heavy duty option in the same finish.
22) Do the hinge pins rust on a bronze or brass finish hinge?
Pins in the non-ferrous hinges are stainless steel, so the pin itself resists corrosion even in the 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed finish. That matters on exterior entrances and in humid interiors like natatoriums and kitchens, where a plain steel pin in a brass hinge is the part that seizes first.
23) Where can I get the BEST CB199NRP hinge templates and installation instructions?
BEST publishes the hinge installation instructions and the general hinge information sheet as PDFs, along with the 5 knuckle concealed bearing hinge literature that covers the CB199NRP. Use the manufacturer template to mark the screw hole locations rather than tracing the old hinge, especially if the frame prep is being cut new.
24) How do the McKinney TCA2314 and TCA2317 differ from the CB199NRP for a standardization package?
The McKinney TCA2314 and TCA2317 are both square corner 5 knuckle full mortise hinges, 4-1/2 inch by 4-1/2 inch, rated standard duty. They share the square corner 5-knuckle full mortise format with the CB199NRP, which means the same door and frame prep across a facility. The CB199NRP is rated heavy duty with a concealed bearing and a non-removable pin. A common approach is to standardize the prep across the building and specify the heavy duty concealed bearing hinge at entrances and high-traffic doors while the standard duty McKinney hinges carry interior openings.
