Hager Hinge 337D Template Hinge Shim 5in Prime Coat

Product Description

The HAGER HINGE 337D is a template hinge shim designed for precise door hardware installation in commercial and residential applications. Measuring 5 inches in length and 1.5 inches in width, this shim is manufactured to a 0.065 gauge thickness and finished in a prime coat that accepts field-applied paint. Door and hardware installers use this shim to fine-tune hinge alignment and eliminate gaps or misalignment at the hinge leaf. It ships as a single unit and is compatible with standard template hinge setups where consistent tolerances are required.

This shim is used in door hardware installations where hinge alignment must be corrected or shimmed to meet frame or door specifications. It fits into light commercial and residential door assemblies alongside standard template hinges. Installers working on new construction or retrofit projects use the 337D to achieve flush, properly tensioned hinge mounting without modifying the door frame or hinge itself. The prime coat finish makes it straightforward to blend into painted door assemblies after installation.
