Polished Chrome Washered Hinges

What Are Washered Hinges?

Washered hinges incorporate small washers—commonly made from phosphor bronze or steel—between their knuckles. These washers act as a buffer, reducing metal-on-metal contact. The result? A quieter, more fluid motion that extends the hinge's life, making them a perfect choice for anyone seeking long-lasting performance.

Polished Chrome for Modern Aesthetics

The polished chrome finish is ideal for contemporary homes, providing a sleek and reflective surface that pairs effortlessly with chrome handles and other hardware. Whether you're updating a minimalist interior or replacing old hinges on a modern front door, polished chrome washered hinges deliver both style and function.

Applications & Size Guidance

Use these hinges on both internal doors and external doors. For standard 35mm internal doors, we recommend 3" x 2" (75mm x 50mm) hinges. Heavier or thicker doors—typically external—will benefit from 4" x 3" (102mm x 75mm) hinges. Always use three hinges per door for better support and balance.

Types of Washered Hinges

Choose from various hinge types such as butt hinges, projection hinges, and parliament hinges. Each offers unique functionality, while maintaining the smooth performance of steel or phosphor bronze washer inserts.

Important Note: Washered hinges are not suitable for fire doors due to safety regulations. Please consider ball bearing hinges as an alternative for fire-rated applications.
