QS Doorware Ball Bearing Hinge 100×76×2mm – Stainless Steel, Pair

QS Doorware Ball Bearing Hinge — 100mm × 76mm × 2mm | Stainless Steel | Sold as a Pair

The QS Doorware QS4417BB Ball Bearing Hinge is a premium stainless steel door hinge designed for smooth, quiet, and long-lasting operation. Sold as a pair, these hinges are suitable for interior and exterior doors where a durable, corrosion-resistant hinge is required. Backed by a 5-year warranty, they are built to perform in demanding residential and light commercial environments.

Key Features

• Ball bearing mechanism – Enclosed ball bearings reduce friction for smooth, silent door operation and significantly extend hinge lifespan compared to plain bearing hinges
• Stainless steel construction – Corrosion-resistant and suitable for humid or coastal environments where standard steel hinges would rust
• 100mm × 76mm × 2mm – A standard door hinge size compatible with most residential and commercial door frames
• 5-year warranty – Manufacturer-backed guarantee reflecting the quality and durability of the product
• Sold as a pair – Two hinges per pack; most standard interior doors require 2–3 pairs depending on door height and weight

Ball Bearing vs Plain Bearing Hinges — What’s the Difference?

A plain bearing (butt) hinge uses direct metal-on-metal contact at the pivot point. Over time, this causes wear, squeaking, and stiffness. A ball bearing hinge uses small steel balls between the bearing surfaces to reduce friction, resulting in smoother operation, less wear, and a longer service life. Ball bearing hinges are the preferred choice for heavier doors, high-traffic doorways, and any application where long-term performance matters.

Ideal Applications

• Interior and exterior residential doors
• Office and commercial doorways
• Coastal or high-humidity environments where corrosion resistance is essential
• Heavier solid core or solid timber doors requiring smooth, durable hinging
• Replacement hinges for worn or squeaking door hardware

Installation Notes

Standard door installations in South Africa typically use 2 pairs of hinges for doors up to 2032mm in height, and 3 pairs for taller or heavier doors. Ensure the hinge recess (mortice) depth matches the 2mm leaf thickness for a flush fit. Use stainless steel screws to maintain corrosion resistance throughout the installation.
