Fully Concealed for an Uninterrupted Appearance

The TECTUS TE 527 3D hinges ensure that doors remain completely flush and free from visible hanging hardware when closed. Designed with precision, they allow for a smooth door aesthetic that suits modern commercial, hospitality, and high-end residential projects.

Available in either satin chrome or satin nickel look, these concealed door hinges can be readily matched with other hardware, such as door handles and latches. This provides both aesthetic and functional consistency. The included cover plates hide fixing screws, maintaining a neat overall appearance. If alternative finishes are required, models such as the TE 240 3D are available in bronze, matt black RAL 9005, and more.

3D Adjustment for Perfect Door Alignment

The Simonswerk TE 527 3D hinge provides independent adjustment in three directions, ensuring precision fitting and easy post-installation adjustments:

• Compression adjustment: ±1mm
• Lateral adjustment: ±3mm
• Height adjustment: ±3mm

This capability allows fine-tuning of door alignment for optimum operation. This is essential for heavier doors where any misalignment could affect both performance, appearance, and users. Simple Allen key adjustments help maintain the door’s smooth movement, even if the door shifts over time.

Designed for Heavy-Duty Door Installations

The TECTUS TE 527 3D is specifically engineered to accommodate large, heavy fire doors. With a maximum load capacity of 120kg per pair, these concealed hinges provide the strength needed for heavier doors without sacrificing aesthetic appeal. For doors with overhead fire door closers fitted, Simonswerk recommends fitting a third hinge. And, if dealing with heavier doors, consider the TE 640 3D with a load capacity of 200kg. 

Maintenance-free slide bearings eliminate the need for lubrication, reducing maintenance costs and ensuring long-term reliability. As part of ongoing door maintenance, hinges should be checked for smooth operation. And, with these 3D hinges, adjusted as needed, but they do not require oiling, this could result in damage to the hinge.

Flexible Installation Across Various Door Types

Suitable for use with timber, steel, or aluminium frames, the TE 527 3D offers installation versatility. These invisible hinges are suitable for unrebated doors, providing specifiers and contractors with the freedom to design flush-fitting door systems without visible hardware interruptions.

The door and frame pieces are both a narrow 26mm wide, with an overall faceplate height of 155mm. A cutter is required with a 24mm diameter, plus a 30mm diameter collar ring. A drilling jig is available for the TE 526/527 3D for block frame and blind frame installation. Contact our team for more information on fitting accessories for concealed hinges.
