Industrial Hinges — Heavy-Duty Door Hardware

Yes, the Kason 1245 Series hinge features a reversible design that allows manual adjustment for either right- or left-hand door operation without special tools or replacement parts. This makes it highly versatile for different cooler door configurations and simplifies the installation or replacement process.

The Kason 1245 Series hinge is constructed from high-pressure die-cast zinc for structural strength and durability. The cam component is made from self-lubricating nylon, which ensures smooth, long-lasting door operation without the need for regular lubrication, even in demanding cold storage and food service environments.

Yes, the Kason 1245 Series allows doors to be lifted off without removing or disassembling the hinge. This feature is especially useful during cleaning, maintenance, or servicing of walk-in cooler and freezer units, significantly reducing downtime and simplifying routine maintenance tasks.

The Kason 1245 Series hinge holds the door open at angles beyond approximately 130 degrees. This wide hold-open angle is ideal for commercial kitchens and food service environments where hands-free, wide-open door access is needed for moving product, equipment, or carts in and out of cold storage areas.

The Kason 1245 Series hinge features a 1-5/8 inch offset. This offset is designed to accommodate the thickness of walk-in cooler and freezer door panels, ensuring the door hangs correctly, seals properly against the gasket, and swings freely without interference from the door frame or surrounding structure.

Yes, powder-coated finishes are available for the Kason 1245 Series hinge, making it suitable for severe environmental applications including high-humidity cold storage areas and commercial kitchens. Powder coating adds a protective layer that resists corrosion and extends the service life of the hinge hardware in challenging conditions.
