Installationsanleitung
Follow these steps for proper installation of your National Hardware T Hinges.
- Bereiten Sie die Oberfläche vor: Ensure the mounting surface (e.g., door, gate, frame) is clean, dry, and structurally sound. Mark the desired hinge locations.
- Position the Hinge: Place the rectangular leaf of the T hinge onto the frame and the triangular leaf onto the door or gate. Ensure the hinge is level and aligned correctly for smooth operation.
- Schraubenlöcher markieren: Use a pencil or marker to mark the positions of the offset screw holes on both the frame and the door/gate. The offset design helps prevent wood splitting.
- Pilotlöcher bohren: Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. The size of the pilot drill bit should be slightly smaller than the diameter of the screws to ensure a secure fit without splitting the wood. (Note: Mounting screws are not included and must be purchased separately.)
- Attach the Hinge: Secure the hinge to the frame and door/gate using appropriate screws. Tighten screws firmly but avoid over-tightening, which can strip the wood or damage the hinge.
- Ausrichtung prüfen: After installation, open and close the door or gate several times to ensure smooth operation and proper alignment. Adjust if necessary.

Wartung
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your T hinges, consider the following maintenance guidelines:
- Regelmäßige Reinigung: Die Scharniere regelmäßig mit einem Desinfektionsmittel abwischen.amp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the zinc-plated finish.
- Schmierung: If the hinges begin to squeak or feel stiff, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or light machine oil to the pin and barrel area. Wipe off any excess lubricant.
- Befestigungselemente prüfen: Periodically inspect all mounting screws to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten any loose screws to maintain stability and prevent hinge sag.
- Korrosionsinspektion: While zinc plating offers corrosion resistance, inspect the hinges regularly for any signs of rust, especially in outdoor or high-moisture environments. Address any corrosion promptly to prevent further damage.
