Practical movement for doors and lids
A well-matched hinge helps a door or lid follow its intended opening path without rubbing against the surrounding joinery. When replacing existing hardware, compare the leaf shape, hinge position and fixing layout as well as the overall size. The correct arrangement is particularly useful where a locker sits close to a bulkhead, cushion or adjacent fitting.
Selection and fitting
Before fixing the hinge, offer it up to both surfaces and move the panel through its full travel. Allow room around the pivot and check that the closed panel sits evenly. Offset, separating and standard hinges serve different layouts, so retain the style required by your installation. After fitting, check the fasteners and movement periodically, especially on frequently used lockers.
Use the stated measurements to compare this version with the item being replaced. Overall dimensions, fixing centres and working clearances can describe different parts of a fitting, so check each relevant measurement separately. A quick comparison with the existing installation helps you choose the appropriate size before committing to new holes or changes to surrounding hardware.
For a refit, take measurements before removing the existing item and retain a note of its position and orientation. This gives you a useful reference when checking the replacement and helps keep related fittings aligned throughout the job.
