As a specialist manufacturer of high-quality glass door hardware, SVA has been providing reliable shower hinges, pivot door hinges, glass clamps, and other architectural glass products for over two decades. Our solid brass pivot door hinges are particularly recognized for their outstanding durability and performance, especially in European and American markets. Whether you are a distributor, contractor, or wholesaler, proper maintenance is key to maximizing the lifespan and functionality of glass door pivot hinges. Here are essential tips to help your end-users get the best results.

1.Regular Cleaning

It is important to clean the hinges periodically using a soft cloth and a mild detergent solution. Avoid harsh or abrasive chemicals, especially on premium finishes such as polished brass or stainless steel, to prevent surface damage. This helps maintain both the appearance and structural integrity of the hardware.

2. Lubricate for Smooth Movement

Apply a silicone-based lubricant to the pivot points every six months. This reduces friction, prevents squeaking, and ensures smooth 360-degree rotation. Silicone lubricant is recommended because it doesn’t attract dust or residue, which can affect performance over time.

3.Check for Loose Fasteners

In high-use environments, screws and mounting components may gradually loosen. Gently tighten any fasteners during routine inspections—but avoid over-tightening, which can strip threads or cause misalignment. This is especially critical for heavy duty door hinges that bear significant weight.

4.Inspect for Wear and Tear

Though our hinges are manufactured from robust materials such as solid brass and undergo rigorous quality testing, it’s advisable to periodically check for early signs of wear, corrosion, or stress, particularly in humid or heavy-traffic settings. Early detection helps avoid larger issues and maintains safety.

5.Ensure Proper Alignment

Misaligned hinges can cause uneven pressure on the glass door, leading to premature failure. If the door does not close smoothly, verify that all hinge components are correctly positioned and adjusted.
