    Hinge safety switches have a switch that automatically shuts off power to machinery when an access door opens. If your door requires more than one hinge, only one needs to have a safety switch; use hinges without a safety switch (sold separately) for the rest. Make sure to mount the safety switch on the rail that won't be moving.
    Nonremovable Pin—Since the pin can’t be removed, the door or panel can only be taken down by removing the hinge completely.
