Description
Description
- Security studs are used for exterior doors that open outward. Doors that open outward have their hinge pins on the outside of the building.
- If a potential intruder removes the hinge pins, the security stud protects the door from being removed by locking the leaves of the hinges together.
- To install the security studs, remove two screws from your hinge. These two screws must be aligned back to back when the hinge (or door) is closed.
- Replace one of the screws with a security stud and drill a receiving hole in the other empty screwhole
- When the door closes the security stud will slide into the receiving hole locking the two hinge leaves in place
- To determine your screw hole size it is best to take a countersunk screw with a known size and place it in the hinge screw hole.
- Installed with a slotted screwdriver.
- Use caution when installing not to break screwdriver slot tabs.
- We advise using a slightly oversized pilot drill prior to installation.
- Installing in hardwood jambs can be problematic, and it is a good idea to pre-form the pilot hole threads using a steel wood screw prior to installing the security stud.

When the unit of measure says “pair” that means two hinges. Usually you need one pair of hinges per door. When the unit of measure says “each” that means one hinge. You would usually order 2 “each” hinges per door.
I want to replace my hinges. How do I make sure the screw holes on the new hinge match the screw holes on the old hinge so I do not have to redrill the holes?
I want to replace my hinges. How do I make sure the screw holes on the new hinge match the screw holes on the old hinge so I do not have to redrill the holes?
Unfortunately, hinge manufacturers have never standardized the location of their screw hole patterns. Every manufacturer puts their screw holes in a slightly different place. This means that when you replace hinges you will almost certainly have to do some filling and redrilling. The exception to this is Architectural door hinges which are built to a standardized template for each size hinge.
