What are Frelan Hardware hinges used for?

Frelan Hardware hinges are used for hanging and supporting internal and external doors in residential and commercial settings. The range includes options designed for smooth movement, durability, and a clean architectural finish.

Are ball bearing hinges better for heavy or high-traffic doors?

Ball bearing hinges are commonly chosen for heavier doors and higher-traffic areas because they help the door operate more smoothly and can reduce wear over time compared to basic hinge designs.

How do I choose the correct hinge size?

Start by checking door thickness, approximate door weight, and how often the door is used. If replacing like-for-like, measure the existing hinge height, width, and leaf thickness to ensure a neat fit and consistent clearances.

What finishes are available for Frelan hinges?

Finishes vary by product but often include Satin Chrome, Polished Brass, and Polished Chrome, with selected designer finishes available in specific ranges. Matching hinge finish to your handles and latches helps maintain a consistent look.

How to choose the right hinge

For best results, confirm your door thickness, approximate door weight, and how frequently the door is used. Heavier doors and high-traffic areas typically benefit from ball bearing designs, while lighter internal doors may suit alternative styles.
