Pitch
The Pitch of a hinge is the distance between the end of a knuckle to the same edge of its adjacent knuckle on the same leaf. This measurement directly correlates to the strength of the hinge in relation to its common wear and stressors. Translation -- a good hinge has a balanced pitch that is specifically designed for its application.
You need a company that knows hinge pitch and can advise you on both standard and custom hinge production for your specific manufacturing needs. Marlboro Manufacturing is that company.
