Hager RC1542 4" x 4" Non-Ferrous Hinge with 5/8" Radius Corners
The Hager RC1542 is a premium residential plain bearing hinge engineered specifically for high-moisture and coastal environments. Featuring 5/8" radius rounded corners, this hinge is designed to fit modern residential door preps commonly found in newer construction. Crafted from non-ferrous materials, the RC1542 is guaranteed not to rust, making it the ideal choice for exterior entryways, bathrooms, and laundry rooms.
Superior Corrosion Resistance for Coastal Living
Standard steel hinges eventually pit and rust when exposed to humidity or salt air. The Hager RC1542 solves this by utilizing solid brass or stainless steel construction. This non-ferrous build ensures that your hardware maintains its structural integrity and beautiful finish for the life of the home. Whether you choose the timeless US3 Bright Brass or the sleek US32D Satin Stainless Steel, you are investing in hardware that is impervious to oxidation.
Engineered for Precision Residential Preps
With a .085 metal gauge and a 4-inch profile, this hinge is perfectly balanced for standard residential doors. The 5/8" radius corners match the large-diameter router-cut mortises frequently used by door manufacturers, ensuring a snug, professional fit. To ensure a silent and smooth swing, Hager recommends lubricating the hinges with lithium grease during or after installation, as residential units are provided unlubricated from the factory.
