Detailed Product Information

Understanding Double Action Hinges in the UK

Double action hinges, also called two-way hinges, swing door hinges, or double acting hinges, are designed for high-traffic environments where doors need to open both ways and close automatically. Using a spring-loaded twin pivot design, they ensure smooth operation and reduce wear compared to standard hinges.

These hinges are widely used in:

  • Commercial kitchens and hospitality venues for hands-free access
  • Retail stockrooms and public buildings for improved traffic flow
  • Healthcare facilities for hygiene-friendly entry points
  • Workshops and factories for easy equipment movement

Available in electro brass and grey finishes, and in sizes from 3” (76mm) for light saloon doors to 7” (179mm) for heavy-duty industrial doors.

For more hinge types, see our ball bearing hinges, projection hinges, and parliament hinges.
