Total Depth
Reach-In Hardware Terminology
(cont.)
•
Offset:
This applies to hinges. Reach-in hinge offsets are
measured differently by different manufacturers. We will refer
to “total depth” of the hinge when there is confusion. This
refers to the measurement from the back of the hinge (where
it touches the unit) to the front.
•
Straight Handle:
¬2EFERS¬TO¬A¬VERTICAL¬LATCH¬RUNNING¬mUSH¬
with the edge of the door. This provides additional protection
from abuse.
•
Offset Handle:
Refers to a vertical latch with a “dog leg”
lever. The lever extends past the door allowing easy access in
tight situations.
•
Screw Centers:
These measurements are helpful in identi-
fying hardware. The measurements are taken from the center
of the screw holes.
•
Surface Mount:
Refers to latches that mount horizontally
on the front face of the door.
