Pemko CFM83SLFHD1 Full-Mortise Heavy Duty Short Leaf Flush Continuous Hinge
The Pemko CFM83SLFHD1 is a high-performance Full Mortise Continuous Geared Hinge specifically engineered for new door installations where a "short leaf" and "flush" configuration are required. Unlike standard full mortise hinges, the Short Leaf Flush (SLF) design is optimized for bifold door applications and double doors, ensuring that door faces remain perfectly aligned and flush with one another. Constructed from heavy-duty anodized aluminum, this 83" hinge supports doors up to 540 lbs, making it the ultimate "set-it-and-forget-it" hardware for institutional environments.
High-Performance & Security Features
- Flush Alignment Design: Specifically engineered to keep the faces of bifold or double doors perfectly flush, providing a seamless, architectural look and preventing binding.
- Short Leaf Versatility: The short leaf configuration accommodates door thicknesses ranging from 1-3/4" to 2-1/4", making it adaptable to a wide variety of commercial hollow metal and wood doors.
- Uniform Load Distribution: Distributes door weight evenly along the full length of the frame, eliminating the sagging and pivot-point stress common with traditional butt hinges.
- Smooth ADA Operation: Requires an operating force of 1/2 lb or less, ensuring compliance with accessibility standards while providing effortless movement for heavy doors.
- Life Safety Certified: Fully tested to UL 10C Positive Pressure fire standards and ANSI/BHMA A156.26 Grade 1 certified, ensuring your facility meets the most stringent building codes.

Pro-Tip for Architects & Facility Managers
The Pemko CFM83SLFHD1 is the industry standard for child care centers, hospitals, and schools because the continuous geared design eliminates the gap between the door and frame, significantly reducing the risk of pinched fingers. For fire-rated openings that require a 3-hour rating, ensure you specify the addition of FirePins. This hinge is also available in a modular "PemKonnect" version if you need to transport hardware into restricted spaces or through elevators where an 83" box is too large.
