Emtek 2242US15 Extended Button Tip Hinge Pin Satin Nickel

Product Description

The EMTEK 2242US15 is an extended button tip hinge pin finished in satin nickel (US15). It replaces a standard hinge pin and installs into the barrel of a butt hinge to add a decorative tip detail at the top and bottom of the hinge. The satin nickel finish provides a brushed, low-sheen appearance that coordinates with a wide range of door hardware finishes. This component is typically installed by finish carpenters, locksmiths, or experienced DIYers during door hardware upgrades or decorative hinge replacements.

Extended button tip hinge pins are used on residential and light commercial interior or exterior doors where standard hinge pins are being replaced for aesthetic purposes. They fit into the existing hinge barrel without requiring modification to the hinge leaves. This part is sold as a single unit and is suited for projects where a coordinated, finished look across door hinges is the goal.

Confirm the barrel diameter of the existing hinge matches the pin diameter before installation.
