GN 7231

Stainless Steel-Multiple-joint hinges GN 7231 are installed on the inside of flaps, hatches and doors to save space and ensure protection against vandalism. The hinges have a maximum opening angle of 90°, making them perfect for use with thick doors.

Use of this hinge type leaves housing exteriors free of attachments that do not match the design or that should be avoided entirely in the interests of fast and easy cleaning.

Stainless Steel-Multiple-joint hinges are generally used in pairs, meaning that one L type and one R type are used per opening. For higher loads, e.g. from large flaps or hatches, these can be supplemented with additional hinges of any type.

The Stainless Steel-Multiple-joint hinges can be adjusted in three planes during installation. For example, this allows tolerances to be adjusted or the required compressive forces for seals to be established.

Two planes can be adjusted via the parallel or perpendicular slots in the fixing angle pieces. In the third plane, position corrections can be made using the Stainless Steel-Spacer plates GN 2370 .

Stainless Steel-Plates with tapped holes GN 2372  as well as Stainless Steel-Plates with threaded studs GN 2376 are also available for fastening the hinges. The latter can be welded on or inserted through the wall from the outside and fastened in place. All accessory items are designed for use with both fixing angle pieces.

Flaps, hatches and doors can be inset, flush or mitered. The maximum wall thicknesses and bend sizes for sheet metal constructions given below arise from the respective installation type.
