Yen Double Action Hinge – Mild Steel Spring Hinge for Swing Doors
A double action hinge lets a door swing open in both directions and then return to the closed position on its own. The Yen double action spring hinge does exactly that, with a pair of built-in springs that gently bring the door back to centre every time someone walks through. No door closer, no door stopper, no door left hanging open.
Made from mild steel with a brown powder-coated finish, this double action door hinge is the go-to choice for kitchen swing doors, café and restaurant doors, pantry doors, office passages and saloon-style half doors, anywhere people walk through with their hands full.
Why Choose a Double Action Spring Hinge?
- Opens both ways – push from either side. Ideal for busy kitchens and service areas.
- Closes by itself – the springs swing the door back to centre, so it never stays open.
- Hands-free movement – carry a tray or a laundry basket straight through.
- Adjustable spring tension – tighten or loosen the closing force to suit your door.
- Surface mounted – fixes onto the door and frame with screws, no special routing.
Fitting a heavy glass or main entrance swing door instead? A floor spring is the better choice there.
Yen Double Action Hinge Sizes – Which One Do You Need?
The size refers to the height of the hinge leaf. Bigger hinges carry taller, heavier doors more comfortably.
| Size | Best For |
|---|---|
| 75mm (3 inch) | Light half doors, café or saloon doors, cabinet-style swing doors |
| 100mm (4 inch) | Standard interior swing doors – kitchen, pantry, store room |
| 125mm (5 inch) | Taller or heavier doors, high-traffic restaurant and office doors |
Not sure? For a regular full-height kitchen or pantry door, the 100mm double action hinge is the most popular choice. Taller or solid-wood doors are better served by 125mm, and very tall doors may need a third hinge.
Mild Steel or Stainless Steel?
This mild steel version is the value pick for indoor doors in dry areas, and the brown powder coat blends nicely with wooden doors and frames. If the door is near water, in a commercial kitchen, or you simply want a brushed steel look, choose the Yen SS304 double action hinge, which is made from rust-resistant stainless steel.
