Hager Hinge BB116841226D Ball Bearing Hinge 4.5x4.5 in

Product Description

The HAGER HINGE BB116841226D is a full mortise, heavy weight ball bearing hinge finished in satin chrome. It is designed for high-cycle commercial and institutional door applications where durability and smooth, consistent swing are required. The 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch leaf size suits standard heavy commercial doors. Ball bearing construction reduces friction and wear over the service life of the door, making this hinge appropriate for high-traffic corridors, stairwells, and entry points. Installation is typically performed by a licensed door hardware specialist, finish carpenter, or general contractor as part of a door and frame assembly.

This hinge is suited for full mortise installation on commercial-grade wood or hollow metal doors and frames. The heavy weight classification indicates reinforced leaf thickness appropriate for doors with greater frequency of use or increased door weight. The satin chrome finish provides a low-sheen appearance compatible with other 26D-finish hardware on the same opening. It is sold individually and is available in case quantities of 24 units for project-volume procurement.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation of full mortise hinges requires precise mortise routing into both the door edge and the frame jamb to achieve a flush leaf seam. Power down any electrified hardware on the opening before beginning work. Follow applicable building code and door hardware manufacturer guidelines for hinge quantity per door based on door height and weight. Use only fasteners appropriate for the door and frame material to ensure secure seating of the hinge leaf.
