Emtek 96233US14 Solid Brass Mortise Hinge Pair

Product Description

The EMTEK 96233US14 is a solid brass plain bearing mortise hinge designed for residential and light commercial door installations. Measuring 3.5 inches by 3.5 inches with a 5/8-inch radius corner, this hinge delivers a clean, traditional profile suited to interior and exterior door applications. Sold as a pair, the 96233US14 is built from solid brass construction, offering durability and a consistent finish. Plain bearing operation provides smooth, quiet pivot action under normal door load conditions. Licensed locksmiths, carpenters, and finish hardware installers typically specify this type of hinge for mortise door preparations requiring precise fit and a refined appearance.

This hinge pair is appropriate for standard residential door frames and doors requiring a mortised hinge pocket. The 3.5 x 3.5 inch leaf size suits most interior passage and privacy door applications. The 5/8-inch radius corner profile matches common pre-cut mortise preparations in door blanks and frames, minimizing additional chiseling on standard installations. The US14 finish designation indicates a specific factory-applied brass finish suited to coordinated door hardware sets.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed carpenter, finish hardware installer, or skilled tradesperson. Power down any electric strike or access control hardware associated with the door before beginning work. Mortise pockets in both the door edge and frame must be clean and correctly dimensioned to accept the hinge leaf flush with the surface. Use manufacturer-supplied or appropriately sized screws and verify that hinge leaves seat fully flat before closing the door to check swing clearance.
