The appropriate specification and correct selection of hinges is crucial to their performance and depends on the following factors; 1. Is it a fire, smoke or emergency escape door? 2. How heavy is the door and what are the door dimension (height, width and thickness)? 3. What is the door's construction and are there any unusal features that could affect the hinges? 4.

American National Standard Institute (ANSI) ANSI 156.1 This Standard establishes requirements for butts and hinges. Cycle tests, lateral and vertical wear tests, friction tests, strength tests, finish tests, and material and dimensional requirements are included.
