What Are Projection Hinges & Parliament Hinges?

Projection hinges move the pivot point away from the door frame, increasing clearance and helping heavier timber doors open wider. Parliament hinges (sometimes called wide-throw hinges) use a traditional cut-away leaf to create extra swing space, making them a popular choice for doors that need to open flat against a wall.

Where These Hinges Are Commonly Used

• French doors & double doors: maximise opening width for everyday access.
• Deep skirting boards & wide architraves: reduce binding and improve clearance.
• Thicker timber doors (often 40mm+): projection designs can offer improved geometry and support.
• Internal doors in tight spaces: helps doors sit flatter to the wall when open.

Key Benefits of Satin Chrome Projection & Parliament Hinges

• 180° opening potential: improved movement for wide-reveal installations.
• Extra frame clearance: offset geometry helps avoid architrave/skirting clashes.
• Modern satin chrome finish: clean, contemporary look that suits modern joinery and chrome hardware.
• Practical for heavier doors: projection hinge styles can be ideal where strength and clearance are needed.

Typical Sizes, Fixings & Fitting Notes

Sizes vary by door weight and application, but common formats include 4" x 4" and larger wide-leaf projection styles, plus traditional parliament hinge patterns (often listed with three dimensions). For many timber doors, fitting three hinges per door helps increase stability and long-term performance.

Choosing the Right Hinge for Your Door

If your main issue is clearance around trims and you want a modern look, a satin chrome projection hinge is often the best match. If you need a more traditional wide-throw solution for doors opening back against the wall, a satin chrome parliament hinge may be ideal.
