SELECT Hinge Performance

SELECT SL21 geared continuous hinges are listed and tested by Underwriters Laboratories to meet the Positive and Negative pressure requirements of UL10B and UL10C, and are in accordance with UBC 7.2 (1997). SELECT SL21 geared continuous hinges are for use on swinging single fire doors (max. door opening of 4'x10') or pairs of fire doors (max. door opening of 8'x10'), including double egress, installed in masonry or drywall. SELECT SL21 geared continuous hinges are rated for up to 1-1/2 hours for wood composite and wood core type fire doors. A special patented process can be added to increase the fire rating to 3 hours (NO FIRE PINS OR STUDS REQUIRED) for hollow metal or steel covered composite type doors.
