Installation Notes

1. Confirm both panels are monolithic tempered glass within 10 mm (3/8″), 12 mm (1/2″) and the joint is a true 180° angle.
2. Mark the hinge position on both panels; the cup that takes the door weight goes on the fixed panel side.
3. Clamp both cups to the glass edges and snug the set screws evenly – the rubber liners grip, do not crush.
4. Level the door with the adjustment screws, then verify the gap line runs even from top to bottom.
5. Check swing and self-close through the full arc. Professional installation recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions

What glass thickness does the Z-9020 fit?

The Z-9020 is rated for 10 mm (3/8″), 12 mm (1/2″) monolithic tempered glass. Always use tempered (safety) glass – never annealed glass.

What is the Z-9020 made of?

The Z-9020’s hinge body is made of solid forged brass, with stainless steel return springs inside. Brass bodies take Zimmor’s full finish program, including PVD coatings for humid bathrooms.

Is the Z-9020 self-closing?

Yes. A spring inside the hinge starts closing the door from about 15° of opening, so the door returns to the seal line on its own.

Can the door position be corrected once fitted?

Yes – loosen the adjustment screws, level the door against the fixed panel, and re-tighten. Do the check with the door closed so the gap line reads true.

Do you supply the heavy duty shower hinge for wholesale and OEM programs?

Yes – this model is produced in Zimmor’s Foshan factory for wholesale and OEM sourcing: custom finishes, packaging and volume pricing are confirmed per order.
