The Zero Hinge Set is self-centering within +/-60° of the closed position, ensuring precise alignment. It accommodates 3/8"" (10 mm) and 1/2"" (12 mm) glass and utilizes a rise-and-fall mechanism that lifts the glass door by 1/4" (6.35mm) upon opening. This provides the option to eliminate the need for a bottom sweep and reduces friction with the sweep, facilitating barrier-free wheelchair accessibility. The dedicated top and bottom Zero Hinges are position-specific and are not interchangeable.
Its versatile technology allows the Zero Hinge Set to suit multiple applications, whether glass-to-wall or glass-to-glass. It can be installed on the wall or floor (acting as a pivoting hinge). The integrated clamp feature for floor installations reduces the need for additional hardware, for 90°, 135°, or 180° applications.
Note: For 135° installations, use the glass cut-out specified in the Technical Documentation. For full-height installations, ensure a minimum clearance of 2 3/16” (56 mm) from the top hinge and allow an additional 1/8” space below the glass for the fully compressed sweep.
