HardwareSource, Inc.Security Stud for Hinges309252
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
Security studs are available to fit a #10 screwhole and a #12 screw hole
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.
A #10 countersunk head screw measures 11/32" across the head. A #12 countersunk head screw measures 3/8" across the head.
The larger studs (SKU 309250 and SKU 309252) are threaded with a 12-24 machine screw thread which matches the thread that is used on metal door frames. Both size studs will work on wood doors and frames.
They are sold by the pair (two studs)
Finishes:
Brass plated
Chrome plated
