National Marker N146258 Tight-pin Narrow Hinge 2.5 in Zinc 2-pack

Product Description

The NATIONAL MARKER N146258 is a tight-pin narrow hinge designed for light-duty door and cabinet installations in residential and commercial applications. Measuring 2.5 inches, this hinge is constructed from cold-rolled steel with a zinc finish, providing corrosion resistance suitable for interior use. The tight-pin design keeps the pin fixed in place, preventing accidental removal and maintaining hinge integrity over repeated use cycles. Each pack includes two hinges along with mounting screws, making it a complete installation kit. Licensed tradespeople and skilled DIYers alike will find this a straightforward drop-in replacement or new-installation component.

This hinge is suited for interior door, cabinet, and millwork applications where a narrow-profile hinge is required. The V518 series catalog designation identifies it within NATIONAL MARKER's standard hinge lineup. The zinc finish pairs with common hardware finishes found in residential interiors. A satin brass finish variant is also noted within the same series. Sold as a 2-pack with screws included, it is appropriate for single-door or paired-door installations where two hinges are needed at one location.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by carpenters, general contractors, or skilled tradespeople using a screwdriver or drill driver. Power down any electric door hardware or access control devices before servicing door frames. Ensure the mortise or surface-mount location is properly marked and squared before fastening. Do not overtighten screws, as this can strip the mounting surface and compromise hinge alignment.
