How to find the right hinges
When looking for the right hinges for a door or garden gate, it's not random which type you should choose.
The most commonly used type is a butt hinge, which you probably know from your current doors and kitchen cabinets. Is it a hinge you need for outdoor use? Then it's advantageous to choose a model made of hot-dip galvanized or stainless steel. This way, you avoid rust, and you also extend the lifespan of your new hinges.
For large gates, the hinges need to be large and sturdy to support heavy constructions. Here, it is ideal to use a T-hinge, as it distributes the weight better than a smaller butt hinge.
Does the outward appearance matter? We have door hinges in various designs and colors, so you can easily find the color that matches your door, gate, or portal. You can choose from gold-plated, white, and steel fittings on the page.
Also consider strong hinges for doors
In order to open a door, a door hinge is a necessity. It is because of the hinge that the door is attached to the door frame, and we have an open-close mechanism. There are countless variants you can choose from.
What you should look for depends on how wide your door is, as well as how much it weighs. If it is a heavy wooden door, the hinge must be able to withstand the many kilograms. If it is a door made of gypsum, PVC, or other lightweight materials, you might consider a smaller fitting that doesn’t need to hold many kilograms.
The hinges are subjected to a lot of stress, which means they can wear out over time. To avoid noisy and squeaky hinges, you might want to take a look at our hinge accessories. You can, among other things, find door rings and hinge aligners, so you install your door correctly the first time.
Discover fittings in good materials
Our door hinges are made from durable materials that can withstand certain loads over extended periods. Therefore, you can be sure that if you need to install a door, garden gate, or portal, our door hinges can handle it.
When shopping at Ahlsell, you should feel secure when installing a gate, door, or similar that requires a closing mechanism. Many of our fittings are also phosphated or hot-dip galvanized. This means they are more resilient to the Danish weather, as phosphating creates a corrosion protection on the hinge. Additionally, a treated hinge requires minimal maintenance.
We offer fittings and hinges from leading manufacturers. You can use them for wood, PVC, and other materials relevant to your task. For example, take a look at our solid mortise hinges. They work particularly well if you need to install a window or door made from different materials at the same time.
Find quality-assured hinges for windows
Is it time to replace the worn, squeaky hinges in your windows? Then you've come to the right place. We have a nice selection of corner hinges for your next task. This way, you can enjoy peace again when you open the window, while also making it harder for thieves to break in. A new hinge is indeed more resistant to break-ins, as they are made from strong and durable materials.
When installing a window, it’s often a corner hinge you should look for. It is typically taller and narrower than a butt hinge and is therefore better suited for smaller installations. Corner hinges are, like our other hinges, also treated with phosphating or hot-dip galvanizing.

Frequently asked questions
What screws should I use for my hinge?
Your choice of screws depends on what material the door is made of, as well as how heavy the door is. If the wall or door is made of gypsum, you should consider a set of rawlplugs. This way, you will achieve a stable installation without irritating surprises.
Should my hinge have sharp or rounded corners?
You can choose butt and corner hinges with rounded or sharp corners. Hinges with sharp corners can be mortised with a chisel. Models with rounded corners can be more easily mortised with a router. Therefore, it depends on which type of door it will be attached to and how it should look.
How do I maintain my hinges?
To avoid the door sticking and making noise, lubricating the hinges is a good idea. When you lubricate the hinge, you should use a non-acidic oil and a cloth to apply it to the sealing strips. If you don’t have oil available, you can also use silicone.
