Description The Gliderol Nylon Sectional Garage Door Hinge #1, a genuine replacement part designed for sectional garage doors. It is engineered from durable, lightweight plastic to provide quiet articulation between door panels. Specification Material: High-grade reinforced nylon/plastic Unit Weight: 68 grams (0.068 kg) Dimensions: ~190mm (Total Length) x ~70mm (Width at pivot) Thickness ~5mm to 8mm (Varies across the reinforced structural ribs) Color: Black Design: Two-piece pivoting assembly with pre-drilled mounting slots Compatibility This hinge is a direct replacement for Gliderol sectional doors. Door Types: Compatible with Gliderol residential sectional door panels. Positioning: Specifically designed as a Number 1 hinge; it is not interchangeable with higher-numbered hinges (#2, #3, etc.) that may have different offsets for the roller carrier. Identification: Ensure your existing hinge is stamped with the number "1" and matches the visual profile of this part. Maintenance Quiet Operation: Unlike metal hinges, these nylon parts do not require regular oiling to prevent squeaks. However, keeping them free of grit will extend their life. Lubrication: Periodically apply a silicone-based spray lubricant to the center pivot point every 6–12 months. Avoid using heavy grease or petroleum-based oils, as these can degrade the plastic over time. Inspection: During your annual door safety check, inspect for any visible cracks or stress whitening in the nylon, particularly around the mounting holes.Mounting: If replacing a broken hinge, ensure the mounting screws are tightened securely but not over-torqued to avoid stripping the panel's pilot holes. ⚠️ Disclaimer The company does not take responsibility for improper installation or usage of this product.
