Antique Brass Washered Hinges

Quiet Movement with Vintage Aesthetics

Washered hinges are fitted with internal steel or phosphor bronze washers, placed between the hinge knuckles to minimise friction and improve longevity. This design ensures a quieter swing and reduces long-term wear—making them ideal for everyday use.

The Beauty of Antique Brass

The antique brass finish delivers a timeworn, aged look that’s perfect for period properties or anyone seeking a classic feel. Slightly darker than polished brass, it offers a richer tone with a soft, brushed surface that hides fingerprints and adds character to any door.

Sizing Options for Interior and Exterior Doors

For standard internal doors (around 35mm thick), 3" x 2" (75mm x 50mm) hinges are the typical choice. Heavier or thicker external doors should use 4" x 3" (102mm x 75mm) hinges for extra strength. Three hinges per door is the recommended setup for reliable, stable hanging.

Where and How to Use Them

Antique brass washered butt hinges are available in various formats including parliament and projection hinges—ideal when you need wider door clearance or want to replicate traditional fittings. All styles offer the same reduced-friction benefit thanks to their washered construction.

Please note: these hinges are not fire-rated. For fire doors or public building compliance, see our ball bearing hinges collection.

Whether you’re restoring a vintage property or upgrading a classic interior, our antique brass washered hinges deliver authentic design with modern functionality.
