The Hinge Matters

Take a look at our integrated claw hinge vs. a traditional metal hinge


The Hinge Matters More Than You Think

A small design change can make a big difference during installation.


Our innovative claw hinge helps reduce wear, corrosion, and long-term maintenance costs.



Traditional Metal Hinge

• Metal hinge riveted to the door and enclosure

• Hardware protrudes into enclosure

• Door remains attached during installation

• Opening radius is often limited

• More components to work around



THC Integrated Claw Hinge

• Cover completely removes & replaces in seconds

• No interior metal hinge for cleaner installation

• Better access for mounting readers and devices

• RFID-friendly design (no metal)


WHY INSTALLERS PREFER THE CLAW HINGE

Easier Installation - The removable cover provides unobstructed access while mounting readers, keypads, intercoms and other access control devices.

RFID Friendly - Unlike traditional metal hinges, our claw hinge eliminates unnecessary interior metal

Faster Service - Need to make adjustments later? Remove the cover in seconds without fighting a hinge

Designed & Manufactured in the USA - Thoughtfully engineered to simplify installation while maintaining the durability installers expect. All materials are sourced domestically
