The
CRL Geneva Series professional hinge (SKU: GEN545CH) fits 5/16" (8 mm) to 1/2" (12 mm) tempered safety glass. Six styles—three Wall Mount and three Glass-to-Glass—offer design flexibility for frameless shower doors. Geneva hinges are self-centering and include a reversible 5° pivot pin; custom pivot pins are available to handle off-angle installations. Constructed of solid brass with stainless steel pins and springs for corrosion resistance and long life.
Standard Reversible Pivot Pin: Each hinge includes a reversible pivot pin marked 90° on one side and 85° on the other. Standard models ship with the 90° side active. Offset models are factory-set to 85° for a 5° tighter closure into the shower interior. Rotate the pin (do not flip) to change the active side.
