    Friction Hinges

    Hold lids, panels, and doors open without props, locks, or springs. These hinges move smoothly into position and resistance keeps them there.
    Painted Aluminum—Install these lightweight hinges where appearance and rust protection matter.
    Torque—When selecting a hinge to use with a lid, first find the torque force needed to move the lid. Multiply the weight of the lid (in pounds) by the distance between the hinge and the center of the lid (in inches). For example: if the lid weighs 3 lbs. and the distance between the hinge and the center of the lid is 12", the torque force is 3 lbs. × 12"= 36 in.-lbs. Divide the torque force by the number of hinges. For example, if using two hinges 36 in.-lbs. ÷ 2 = 18 in.-lbs. each.

    The pin is attached to the frame leaf, so you can take off doors without removing the screws or pin from the hinge. Surface-mount hinges are the standard for most enclosure doors, panels, and lids. Since they don’t need a cutout, they’re easier to install than mortise hinges but won’t sit flush with the edge of your door.
    To install hinges without mounting holes, weld into place or drill your own holes.
    Aluminum—One-third the weight of steel, these hinges are often used on enclosures, carts, and other equipment where you want to limit the load.
    Door Mounting Location—To choose a door mounting location, stand on the pull side of the door. Use a right-side hinge if the hinge is on the right, or a left-side hinge if it’s on the left.
