. Overview
These instructions are for installation of TENSOR Double-Acting
Hinges for the following mounting and style versions:
1. Frame mount
1.1.1 General information
• dormakaba requires use of tempered monolithic glass.
• dormakaba glass hardware is not suitable for harsh
environment; for example, applications where chemicals (e.g.
chlorine) are used such as indoor swimming pools, saunas, or
salt-water pools.
• Do not swing doors with excessive force. Ensure proper
installation of limiting stop to prevent door from opening too
far.
1.1.2 Intended use
• For swinging doors in dry indoor and covered areas only.
• For manual slow opening and closing only.
1.1.3 Glass requirements/fittings/mounting
• The substructure/wall must be able to bear permanent loads,
be level (max. tolerance: 1/16” [2] per 39” [1m]).
• Fasteners must be sufficiently dimensioned for the
substructure/wall and weight of the door.
• When adjusting glass elements, always stick to the required
clearance for the respective hardware. Adjust clearance so
glass does not come in contact with any hard surfaces such
as glass, metal or concrete.
• Do not use excessive force when installing the glass (avoid
over tightening screws.)
1.1.4 Requirements for glass panel
• Heat-soaked thermally tempered monolithic glass
• Clamping area must be flat and uncoated (no self-cleaning
coating!)
• Never use glass with conchoidal fractures and/or damaged
edges.
1.1.5 Safety instructions
• Installation requires two people.
• Only properly qualified and specially trained staff are
authorized to mount dormakaba glass hardware.
• Due to crushing hazards and possible injury caused by
breakage of glass during mounting, corresponding protective
clothing (especially gloves and protective goggles) is required.
• Never clamp metal fitting hardware directly to glass surface.
1.1.6 Symbols used - Safety/Installation
CAUTION
Mounting components must meet the requirements of
substructure/wall and door weight. Please read the
technical information for fittings.
WARNING
Risk of breaking glass. When installing the door,
support the door panel with a block of wood or similar
object.
CAUTION
Due to the reset-mechanism, a low degree of
operational sounds can be expected.
TIPS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Information note
TIPS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
No further warranty is provided if the identification
label has been damaged or removed.
CLOSING EDGE OF DOOR
1.1.7 Maintenance, care, repair
• Immediately replace damaged parts.
• Always use original dormakaba parts.
• Clean clamping area with alcohol-based standard commercial
cleaning agent before mounting the glass hardware.
• Use a damp cloth for occasional cleaning.
• Always use silicone - and oil-free cleaners (e.g. acetone).
• Lightly grease bushings during maintenance using multi-
functioning oil (silicone-, resin-, teflon-free, acid-free only)
(example: white lithium grease).
• Check glass hardware at regular intervals for proper
positioning, smooth operation and correct adjustment.
• High traffic door systems require inspection by properly
qualified staff (specialized companies or installation firms.)
• Function of fittings is recommended to be inspected annually
or every 100,000 movements by a specialist.
1.1.8 Disposal
Disposal in accordance with local, state and national regulations.
