MERIT wide throw hinges are another example of function, quality and our commitment to manufacturing the most complete line of solid brass extruded hinges in the industry. These plain bearing, full mortise hinges feature wider than normal hinge leaves which positions the door out further, when open, than our conventional hinges. Wide throw hinges are normally used when doors are set in a reveal and are open 180°. The knuckle diameter of our wide throw hinges are consistent with the rest of our extruded hinge line. Hinges are supplied with button tips. Optional decorative brass finials are available at an additional charge.
