Swing Clear Door Hinges

What Are Swing Clear Door Hinges?

The swing clear door hinge, sometimes referred to as an offset hinge, is a smart solution for both homes and businesses. These innovative hinges allow doors to swing completely free of the doorway, creating a wider passageway for wheelchairs, gurneys, and bulky items. With a removable pin, they can easily be installed and removed.

These hinges are constructed from durable steel or stainless steel and feature ball bearings to ensure smooth, quiet operation and minimize dust accumulation - a common problem with traditional hinges.

Features of Swing Clear Door Hinges

Swing clear door hinges are innovative hinges that allow doors to swing completely clear of the opening, creating a wider passage for wheelchairs, gurneys, and other bulky equipment. These door hinges offer a range of features for diverse applications, such as:

• Improved Accessibility: Promoting greater accessibility for all, this type of door hinge is beneficial in homes, healthcare facilities, and public buildings as it creates wider doorways for wheelchairs, walkers, and hospital beds.
• Space Optimization: Swing clear hinges maximize space in narrow areas like hallways, entryways, or rooms with limited square footage by allowing the door to swing completely clear of the opening.
• Reduced Door Damage: Unlike traditional hinges that can damage walls and door jambs when fully opened, swing-clear hinges eliminate this risk, protecting your doors from scratches and dents.
• Hassle-Free Installation: Many swing clear hinges can be mounted on the surface of the door and frame, requiring no mortise cutting, making them perfect for DIY projects or quick upgrades.
• Durable Construction: Built to last, swing clear hinges are typically constructed from high-quality steel or stainless steel. These hinges ensure they can withstand high-traffic areas and provide long-lasting functionality.
• Stylish Design: Available in various finishes like satin chrome and sleek stainless steel, swing clear hinges complement any architectural style.
