Note: Before Fitment of any Intastop Hinge, the frame needs to be checked to ensure it is square and true, if the frame is not, the hinge may be stiff in operation or squeak. When fitting to a metal frame ensure minimum 2mm material or sufficient reinforcement for screw fixings.
-
If the hinge needs cutting to length, use the height of the door opening minus 3mm clearance at the bottom. Ensure when cutting the hinge to length, to not cut the end with the tip off.
-
Position the door face down on the leading edge and lay the hinge on the door edge.
Note: In a Mental Health application, the hinge can be tipped. In this application he hinge must be fitted flush with the frame, leaving no more than 0.5mm of a gap. A dome cap can also be fitted into the frame in which the hinge is to be fitted up into the dome cap. -
Once happy with the positioning of the hinge on the door, drill 2 pilot holes at the top, bottom and centre using a 3mm drill bit. The pilot hole should be square with the hinge face.
-
Using the supplied security screws, fix the hinge through the pilot holes using the T20 security bit, ensuring the torque setting on the driver is low.
-
Now the hinge is fixed, check the positioning of the hinge is central and straight.
-
Swing the hinge from one side to the other, this should be a free movement with no tight spots, if not, the hinge is not set correctly on the door.
-
Pilot drill all of the other holes in the door, ensuring they are square with the hinge face and then fit all screws in the door.
-
The hinge should be within 0.5mm of the frame head in mental health applications.
-
Once the hinge is positioned on the frame, drill 2 pilot holes at the top and bottom of the hinge and then fit the 2 screws. See step 4.

Drill remaining pilot holes.
