Pemko CFM83SLI-HD1 Full Mortise Continuous Hinge 83 in

Product Description

The PEMKO CFM83SLI-HD1 is a full mortise continuous hinge designed for heavy-duty commercial door applications. Measuring 83 inches in length, it runs the full height of the door frame for even load distribution and long-term structural integrity. The short leaf inset configuration allows the hinge to sit flush within a mortised pocket on both the door and the frame. Rated Grade 1, this hinge meets the performance demands of high-traffic entryways where standard butt hinges are not sufficient. The satin aluminum clear anodized finish provides corrosion resistance and a clean, low-profile appearance suited to commercial interior and exterior openings.

Full mortise continuous hinges of this type are used in commercial and institutional construction, including schools, hospitals, government buildings, and retail facilities. The 83-inch length accommodates standard full-height door frames. This hinge is installed by finish carpenters, door and hardware specialists, or commercial contractors during new construction or door replacement projects requiring a Grade 1 rated continuous hinge with a mortised installation profile.

Installation Notes

Installation of full mortise continuous hinges requires precise routing of the door edge and frame stile to the exact leaf dimensions. Power should be disconnected from any electric latch or access control hardware before beginning door work. A licensed door and hardware installer or experienced commercial carpenter should perform the mortising and fastener installation. Follow local building codes and manufacturer fastener patterns to ensure proper load transfer and door operation.
