[Terms & Definitions] Concealed hinges

Terms & Definitions1

Legend with terminology used to better define Krona Koblenz branded concealed door hinges.

K distance

K distance is the distance between the door edge and the hinge edge. The K-Max means is the maximum K-distance that allows the correct rotation of the door (from 0 ° to 180 °).

Hinge centered on the door leaf

The installation with a hinge centered on the door leaf has the advantage of making the door leaf reversible. You have a centered hinge when the K distance is equal to the measurement on the opposite side.
