Choosing the Right Hinge for the Job The nomograph below has been developed to assist you in determining the correct size and number of hinges for your installation. If the information you need is off the chart, consult the factory. The general rule used to determine the number of hinges is: very door should be provided with at least one hinge for every thirty inches in height or portion thereof; however, more hinges may be required per chart below. For example, a 90 door needs three hinges and a 91 door needs four. irections After determining the weight and width of the door, draw a straight line through the door width and weight to line A, as indicated in the example. Continue with a horizontal line sideways from the point of intersection with line A until the door Hinge Number oor Material Minimum oor Thickness thickness is reached.
