Selection Tips
In order for the purchased loops to fully satisfy the user's needs, you need to learn how to choose them correctly. In this case, it is important to choose the optimal version of the AGB hinges.
For example, if you need to install them on interior doors, then reinforced options for the front door will not work here. There is no point in overpaying a lot of money, given that half of the possibilities of such loops will not be used.
The material of manufacture is important. Most of the steel variants are distinguished by a noticeable backlash, which can sometimes reach several millimeters. That is why brass hinges are the most optimal solution today. However, they must be checked for backlash before purchasing.
If you need to install interior doors, then overhead butterfly hinges are also not suitable for such purposes. They can only be used during repairs as a temporary measure. The fact is that with such a detail, the door will spring.
Installation and adjustment
Installation of AGB hinges and their adjustment should be carried out according to the recommendations and instructions of the manufacturer. Correct installation provides for the preliminary implementation of all design parameters for the height, width and weight of the doors. Before starting the installation work, it is best to make a markup that will allow you not to make mistakes when working with a drill. In addition, ready-made insertion templates can be used, which greatly simplify the installation process.
After installation, you will definitely need to check the correctness of opening and closing the doors. If there are any difficulties or inaccuracies, then it is necessary to adjust the discrepancies. With the help of competent adjustment, you can get rid of squeaks when opening or closing doors.
