Beeswax Ball Bearing Hinges

These hinges feature concealed bearings that reduce friction between the hinge leaves—helping doors open and close more smoothly and silently over time. The beeswax finish provides a dark, hand-forged appearance ideal for cottages, barns, period homes, and other rustic spaces.

Simple Sizing, Strong Performance

Available in just the two most practical sizes: 3” x 2” for internal timber doors and 4” x 3” for heavier external or fire-rated doors. Though minimal in range, both sizes offer excellent performance and a distinctive look rarely found in standard finishes.

Why Choose Beeswax?

• Rich, blackened tone with a soft sheen—ideal for heritage ironmongery
• Ball bearing design for smoother door operation and less wear
• Pairs beautifully with forged black handles, bolts, and latches
• Recommended for wooden doors in traditional or farmhouse settings
• Durable enough for regular use on both internal and external doors

Using three hinges per door is typically recommended to ensure consistent operation, especially on heavier or solid-core timber doors. Beeswax offers a finish that’s both practical and visually authentic to traditional craftsmanship.
