Lift-off hinges are a type of hinge made up of two parts which allow door removal without the need to open the door. Australian building law requires that in an emergency, a toilet door can be removed by someone on the outside.
For example, in most cases, toilet doors must open outwards, slide, or be readily removable from the outside of the compartment. This requirement only applies if the space between the toilet pan and the door is less than 1200mm.
- Used to hang doors with a flush finish to jamb
- Designed for easy removal of hinged door in an emergency
- Commonly used on doors with self closers
- Door edge to be rebated to suit hinge style
An inward swinging toilet door with lift-off hinges will typically have a gap between the top of the door and the under side of the head of the door frame. This is to allow sufficient movement upward so the pin in the door hinges can slip out of the hinge-blades screwed to the side of the door frame or style.
