Oily Hinges, Rusty Hinges, Doors Binding – a familiar complaint with your door?
Would you like to stop your door hinges from rusting, from leaking oil and from making your doors bind?
Ball bearing hinges were never designed for external doors! It’s why you quickly see oil leakage and rust streaks from a ball bearing hinge run down your nice, new front door. Ball bearing hinges are designed for internal fire doors. The images below may be a familiar sight to you on site call-backs!

The HQ4 hinge’s self-lubricating phosphor bronze washers means there are no ball bearings or oil lubricant required and means we can guarantee no oil will leak and stain your door.
We’re often asked why other manufacturers’ stainless steel hinges rust and this is usually because of two reasons:
- They’re made from a lower grade 304 stainless steel, or
- The hinge pin or ball bearings are not 316 Marine Grade Stainless Steel
