Details

Door hinges are designed for installation on the door edge and the corresponding frame. Placement and method depend on hinge type.

Tools You May Need

Screwdriver (Phillips or flathead)
Drill and drill bits
Chisel (for mortising)
Screws
Tape measure and pencil
Level or square
Hammer and mallet

A. Mortise Hinges

Step 1: Mark Placement

Measure and mark hinge positions on the door edge. Standard placement is:

Top hinge: 5–7 inches from the top of the door.
Bottom hinge: 10–12 inches from the bottom.
Third hinge (if used): centered between top and bottom.

Step 2: Mortise the Door and Frame

Trace the hinge outline. Chisel shallow recesses into the door edge and frame so the hinge leaf sits flush.

Step 3: Pre-Drill Screw Holes

Place the hinge in the mortise, mark screw locations, and drill pilot holes.

Step 4: Attach Hinges

Screw one leaf of each hinge to the door edge. Position the door in the frame and secure the other hinge leaf to the jamb.

Step 5: Test Door Swing

Open and close the door to ensure smooth movement. Adjust screws if necessary.

B. Concealed Hinges

Step 1: Mark and Cut Recess

Mark hinge placement on both the door edge and the frame. Use a router or chisel to cut recesses deep enough to house the concealed hinge body.

Step 2: Position and Pre-Drill

Insert the hinge body into the recess, align flush with the surface, and mark screw holes. Drill pilot holes.

Step 3: Attach Hinges

Secure the hinge body into both the door and the frame using provided screws. Ensure full seating for proper alignment.

Step 4: Adjust Alignment

Most concealed hinges include adjustment screws. Use these to fine-tune door alignment vertically and horizontally.

Step 5: Test Operation

Open and close the door fully to confirm smooth, quiet motion without rubbing or binding.

Important Tips

Always mark hinge locations carefully before cutting or drilling.
Mortising ensures hinges sit flush and the door closes properly.
Use a level to check vertical alignment.
For heavy doors, use at least three hinges.
Periodically tighten screws to maintain performance.
