Hager EC1105 4-1/2" x 4-1/2" Single Acting Spring Hinge
The Hager EC1105 is a high-performance self-closing door hinge designed to automatically close doors in hotels, motels, institutions, and commercial buildings. Engineered for reliability and safety, this single acting spring hinge ensures that fire-rated doors return to the closed and latched position as required by law. As a critical component of commercial door hardware, it provides an efficient alternative to overhead door closers.
Fire Safety and Code Compliance
Compliance is the top priority in commercial construction. The Hager EC1105 meets ANSI K81071F standards and is tested for use on labeled fire doors. While NFPA 80 generally restricts architectural spring hinges to 3'0" x 7'0" openings, the Hager EC1105 has been tested and labeled for larger doors up to 4'0" x 8'0" when a minimum of three spring hinges are installed. This makes it a versatile solution for high-traffic fire-rated openings.
Engineered for Performance
Constructed from durable steel with steel components, these hinges feature a .134 gauge thickness and are designed specifically for 1-3/4" thick doors. To ensure proper operation and longevity of the opening, spring hinges must be used in conjunction with ball bearing hinges. Using plain bearing hinges with spring hinges is not recommended and may void compliance.
