We recently ran a job using institutional RPC 5-knuckle
hinges. In toolbox the door sizes and
location look fine. We have the proper
outside and vertical gap reveal.
During the install though we found that while physically hanging
the doors the 1/8ā center gap (pair of doors) was basically gone and the doors
were rubbing. This happened as well on
single doors but the finished edge reveals basically turned to ā0ā.
The only good explanation is variance in the manufacturing
of the RPC 5-knuckle hinges. The best solution
in our eyes would be to change the G!Door_Overlay_Institutional variable. But in doing this we lose the machining for
the hinge since it no longer touches the end panel.
Based on that the only solution for a pair of doors looks to be to change the G!Door_Gap. Iām not sure if this is the best way to make
these adjustments since this is simply a fixed number and not an automatically
adjustable variable base don the hinge type. Also this doesn't solve the issue with a single door or a drawer bank cabinet.
