Models 790-904 and 790-906 are Stainless Steel Continuous Half Edge Mount Hinges for 1-
3/4” (44.5mm) thick doors. The
frame face must have a flat surface at least 1-
5/8” wide. Clearance required between the hinge edge of the door and the frame rabbet
is 1/8” (3.2mm) minimum.
Model 790-906 features an integral protective corner guard and is
not
recommended for use on doors that
have a beveled edge on the hinge side
.
Hinge Length
All
HAGER
Stainless Steel Continuous
Hinges are supplied 7/8” to 1”
shorter than the nominal door height to avoid threshold or carpet
clearance problems. If the hinge must be trimmed shorter, first
determine the correct hand of the door and orientation of the hinge.
Remove the bottom pin cap and trim from the
bottom
end of the hinge
only to achieve the desired length
– do not cut the top end. Undercut
the pin 7/8” shorter for clearance and reinsert the bottom pin cap.
Total Clearance Between Door and Frame Width
*
For doors that are pre-
beveled 1/8”-in-2” on the hinge edge, add 1/32” (0.8mm) per door to the T
OTAL
clearance shown (Model 790-904 only).
For Model 790-906, the hinge edge of the door should not be beveled.
