EPD: Aluminium continuous hinges, 10.05 kg/unit (Allegion)

IVES offers a variety of Aluminum Geared Continuous hinges that will cover any need in commercial applications while also exceeding code requirements. Geared continuous hinges utilize a single gear section for the leaf and a separate gear section for the frame side of the door. The two are held in place together by a full-length cover channel and rotate on a series of bearings. It is important to consider the door width, thickness, weight, and clearance when choosing a hinge. With tested durability and consistent superior performance, IVES Aluminum Geared Continuous hinges get the job done. The products covered in the EPD include aluminum hinges with length ranging from 83 to 120. We´ve taken the approach to present results for the lightest and heaviest products in the IVES Aluminum Geared Continuous Hinge product line. Moreover, impacts from aluminum far exceed that of plastics such as polyethylene in this case. Results presented in the following sections represent worst case scenario in terms of impacts.
