Description
The HAGER HINGE 12794123 is a full mortise, five knuckle, plain bearing hinge in a standard weight configuration with a bright brass finish. Designed for door hardware applications, this hinge measures 4.5 inches by 4.5 inches and weighs 1.13 pounds per unit. The plain bearing design provides reliable pivot action suited to standard-duty door cycles. Licensed door hardware installers and finish carpenters select this hinge for installations where a polished brass aesthetic is required alongside proven mechanical performance. The full mortise mount allows the hinge to sit flush within routed pockets on both the door and frame, resulting in a clean finished appearance.
This hinge is appropriate for standard-weight interior or exterior door applications in residential and light commercial settings. The five knuckle configuration distributes load across multiple pivot points, which supports consistent alignment over the service life of the door. It is sold as an individual unit, making it straightforward to source exact quantities for retrofit or new construction projects. The bright brass finish suits architectural hardware specifications that call for a polished metal appearance.

Installation Notes
Installation is typically performed by a licensed finish carpenter or door hardware technician. The door must be fully removed or secured before mortising the hinge pocket into the door edge and frame jamb. Use a router or sharp chisels to achieve a clean mortise depth that allows the hinge leaf to sit fully flush. Verify door alignment and swing clearance before fastening all screws to final torque.
