Path & Clearance for Doors
Invisible Hinges-Solutions For Small To Full Size Doors
Recommended Spacing
Notice in the illustration showing three hinges, that the
“center" hinge is not shown in the usual location near the
center of the door. The “center" hinge should be located
one-half the distance from the horizontal center line of the
door to the center line of the top hinge.
On installations requiring four SOSS Invisible Hinges, the
second hinge from the top should be located one-half
the distance from the door’s horizontal center line to the
center line of the top hinge. The third hinge from the top
should be located one-quarter of the “A" dimension below
the horizontal centerline of the door.
The diagram below shows the typical path of a SOSS hinged door. The table
shows the door clearance when fully opened for each SOSS hinge.
