The Hager 780-113HD continuous hinge is designed for heavy-duty, high-frequency applications and can support doors weighing up to 200 pounds without the need for additional reinforcement. If the door weighs more than 200 pounds (up to a maximum of 300 pounds), reinforcement with a 16-gauge steel channel in both the door and the frame is required to ensure proper support and longevity. This hinge meets ANSI Grade 1 standards and includes multiple bearings along its length, each rated to support between 7.5 to 20 pounds depending on door use and frequency. For typical installations on an 83-inch door, the hinge can handle heavy loads effectively, but it is not recommended for doors exceeding 300 pounds.
