Don-jo HS090PC Hinge Shim 13 Gauge Prime Coat

Product Description

The DON-JO HS090PC is a 13 gauge steel hinge shim designed to correct door alignment and fill gaps between hinges and door frames. At 1.625 inches wide and 4.5 inches long with a thickness of 0.06 inches, this shim fits standard full-mortise hinge cutouts on hollow metal and wood doors. The prime coat finish accepts field-applied paint, making it suitable for commercial and institutional installations where a finished appearance is required. Door hardware installers and locksmiths reach for this shim when correcting hinge-bound conditions or adjusting door swing geometry without remortising the frame.

This hinge shim is appropriate for commercial and residential door installations where hinge leaves require shimming to bring a door into proper alignment. Typical applications include hollow metal door frames in schools, office buildings, hospitals, and multi-family residential construction. It is sold individually and is also available by the case in quantities of 10, making it practical to stock on a service vehicle or in a shop inventory for recurring door hardware work.

Installation Notes

Ensure the shim does not obstruct the hinge barrel or prevent full leaf closure. Prime coat finish should be painted after installation to meet project finish specifications.
