#3 Garage Door Hinge – 14 Gauge Black Powder Coated Replacement for Sectional Doors
#3 Garage Door Hinge – 14 Gauge Black Powder Coated Replacement for Sectional Doors
This #3 garage door hinge connects adjacent door sections and supports the roller at the door’s side edge. Its black powder coat finish coordinates with matching black hardware, while the 14-gauge construction provides thicker material than 16- or 18-gauge hinges.
Use it to replace a worn, bent, or damaged matching #3 hinge on a compatible sectional overhead door.
PRODUCT DETAILS
• Hinge number: #3
• Material thickness: 14 gauge
• Finish: Black powder coat
• Style: Standard end hinge with roller carrier
• Application: Compatible sectional overhead garage doors
• Function: Connects door sections and maintains the required roller offset
HINGE POSITION
On doors using a conventional graduated hinge arrangement, #3 end hinges typically connect the third and fourth sections, counting from the bottom.
The #3 identifies the roller-offset configuration, while 14 gauge identifies material thickness. Always follow the door manufacturer’s hardware layout and match the original hinge requirements.
BLACK POWDER COAT FINISH
The black finish provides a coordinated appearance when paired with matching interior hinges, brackets, and other door hardware. This is a functional section hinge used in the door’s operating hardware.
COMPATIBILITY
Before ordering, compare:
• Number stamped on the existing hinge
• Mounting-hole spacing and overall dimensions
• Roller-carrier offset
• Roller-stem diameter
• Required hardware gauge
• Existing hardware finish
A matching hinge number alone does not guarantee fit. Proprietary door systems, specialty track arrangements, and unusual mounting patterns may require different hardware.
Do not substitute a #1, #2, or another numbered hinge where a #3 is specified. Confirm fit before changing material gauge; thicker hardware does not increase the door’s rated capacity.
INSTALLATION NOTES
Inspect the door reinforcement, mounting holes, roller, and fasteners before replacement. Repair damaged attachment points and use the fasteners specified by the door manufacturer.
After installation, confirm that the hinge pivots freely and the roller travels without binding. Track misalignment or damaged door sections must be corrected separately.
SAFETY
Disconnect opener power and secure the door against movement before servicing. Keep fingers clear of hinge pivots and section joints.
Do not loosen springs, lift cables, cable drums, or cable-connected bottom brackets during hinge replacement. Have a qualified garage door technician service doors that are off track, unbalanced, or structurally damaged.
