Door Mounting Options
Both the ANGUTEC and Micromaster Series are designed with modular mounting fixtures. This enables hinges to mount to a diverse range of building materials with varying thicknesses and structure. All door mounting options allow for in-situ adjustment under full load and are capable of all panel installation types, such as inset, overlay and curtain wall. Please Note: All materials mentioned are specific to the door/panel. For frame materials and information please see Frame Mounting Options.
Door Mount D01 - Single Point Fixing
This door mount for glass is ideal for toughened or tempered glass panels.
Panel Thickness Range: 6mm to 19mm, however thicker panels are possible.
Recommended Panel Materials: Toughened / Tempered Glass Panels.
Door Mount D01 works with single point fixings that will suit any design. We have three options to choose from. Firstly, there are two clamping disc/plate fixings. These differ only in shape. One is radiused/domed and the second option is flat. Importantly, the outside disc diameter for both complies with the industry standard measurement of 50mm. The other option is the countersunk fixing, which features an outer acetal bush with an integrated stainless steel insert. Importantly, the screws for both the clamping discs and the countersunk fitting options are concealed by a tamperproof stainless steel cover. Furthermore, this cover is completely surface flush.
This door mount for glass is suitable for all frame mount sizes. Furthermore, it is available with our custom made door kit tool. This tool easily removes the clamping plate cap so that the hinge can be adjusted and the panel maintained.

Door Mount D03 - Key Slot Mounting
This key slot door mount is extremely flexible and will work with any door material.
Panel Thickness Range: 5mm to 30mm with thicker panels possible.
Recommended Panel Materials: Glass (toughened/tempered & float/non-tempered), Stone, Metal Panels, Extrusion of Various Shapes.
Door Mount D03 features a key slot design. The shoulders of the key shape provide a favorable mechanical load transfer. As a result, the main download forces of panels are carried by the key shoulders. This removes any stress on the mounting screws. Therefore, the mounting screws secure the door mount in place without taking on any panel weight.
The key slot design is an extremely versatile fitting that is used with a variety of adapters. For example, extrusions and bonding plates. Manfred Frank Bonding Plates are made of stainless steel with an accurately dimensioned key slot and two threaded mounting studs/rods. The bonding plates are typically bonded to the back of panels using a suitable bonding/glue product. Once hinges are mounted to the frame substructure, the door panel with the attached bonding plates is bolted to the D03 mount. This two-part assembly design ensures a most efficient and safe installation process.
Door Mount D04 - Surface Screw Mounting
This surface screw door mount is ideal for all non-glass doors or panels.
Panel Thickness Range: 10mm to 25mm, with thicker panels possible.
Recommended Panel Materials: Stone, Metal, Timber Panels. Importantly, this surface screw door mount is designed for all non-glass doors or panels.
The unique feature of this door mount is the protruding ø20mm stem. This stem is recessed into the panel surface as part of the installation process. Consequently, the main load forces of the panels are carried by the stem. As a result, there is no stress placed on the actual mounting screws. Therefore the mounting screws simply secure the door mount in place, without taking on any of the panel weight. The result is a more efficient hinging system that will last over decades of use without any loss of adjustment or unnecessary panel pressure.
Furthermore, this door mount is suitable for all frame mount sizes and is available with all Manfred Frank hinge models. It can be installed without the need for any special equipment and will work with all installation types. These include inset, overlay, curtain wall and curtainwall back to back.
Door Mount D05 - Mortised Insert Mounting
NOTE: This mortised door mount is exclusive to the ANGUTEC series.
Panel Thickness Range: 31mm to 51mm (thicker panels possible)
Recommended Panel Materials: Stone, Metal, Timber Panels. The D05 mortised is designed for all non-glass panels.
This door mount has an insert that is mortised into the door panel. These inserts(D50 and D51) are available in two sizes. The result is an easy snap-on two part assembly. Firstly, the hinge is installed onto the frame. Secondly, the mortised door insert is independently installed to the door. As a result, fitting the door panel to the hinge simply involves sliding the hinge door mount into the mortised door insert.
Furthermore, the mortised door insert features clearly marked, pre-aligned mounting locations. These indexed mounting locations allow for all installation types such overlay/inset and curtain wall with panel thickness from 31mm to 51mm to be achieved with a single fitting.
Manfred Frank patented load transfer technology ensures that the mounting screws simply secure the door mount in place without having to take any of the panel weight. This unique feature allows for heavy and ultra wide doors to be mounted easily and safely.
