Markar Continuous Hinges

Why Continuous Hinges?

Hinge failure most commonly begins when doors are opened beyond stop device limits. The resulting kickback shock to the hinges can surpass 1000 lbs. of force. Subsequent racking eventually loosens screws, distorts hinge leaves, pulls open knuckles, damages bearings or creates other serious damage to standard butt hinges as well as the door frame itself.

Markar Continuous Hinges provide the answer by distributing shock forces evenly, significantly reducing wear and tear to the frame and door.

Other important benefits include:

• Enhanced security prevents insertion of objects between the door and frame
• Easy alignment of electrical transfers and monitoring switches
• Reduced binding
• Less force required to open than butt hinges

There are many different models to choose from with a variety of configurations, options and materials.
