Godrej 2-Ball Bearing Hinges 5x10: Durable Door Solution
Godrej 2-Ball Bearing Hinges 5x10 SS 304: The Ultimate Door Hardware for Indian Homes
In Indian homes, offices, and construction sites, doors endure daily abuse from humidity, dust, and constant use. Standard hinges squeak, rust, or fail prematurely, leading to sagging doors, alignment issues, and endless maintenance headaches. The Godrej 2-Ball Bearing Door Hinges 5x10 SS 304 Finish solve these problems with superior strength, smooth operation, and long-lasting corrosion resistance, making them ideal for contractors, DIY enthusiasts, and homeowners across India.
Product Overview
These hinges measure 5x10 inches (125x75x3 mm), crafted from high-grade SS 304 stainless steel for unmatched durability. Equipped with two precision ball bearings, they ensure effortless door swinging even under heavy loads. The polished SS 304 finish resists rust in humid climates like Mumbai monsoons or coastal Kerala homes, while the robust 2.1-2.5 mm thickness handles doors up to 40-50 kg without bending. Perfect for main entrances, bedrooms, bathrooms, and cabinets, they install easily on wooden, steel, or flush doors common in Indian architecture.
Key Features of Godrej 2-Ball Bearing Hinges
Double Ball Bearing Mechanism
The dual ball bearings reduce friction dramatically, preventing the jerking motion of ordinary hinges. Doors open and close silently, solving the common complaint of noisy bedroom or kitchen doors that disturb sleeping kids or working family members.
SS 304 Stainless Steel Construction
Grade 304 stainless steel offers excellent resistance to corrosion, pitting, and oxidation. In dusty Delhi environments or salty Bangalore air, these hinges stay pristine, unlike cheaper mild steel options that pit and weaken within months.
Precise 5x10 Inch Dimensions
Sized at 125 mm length x 75 mm width x 3 mm thickness, they fit standard Indian door frames perfectly. The design supports heavy doors without sagging, crucial for builder-grade homes where doors warp over time.
Durable Polished Finish
The SS 304 finish provides a sleek, modern look that complements teak wood doors, modular kitchens, or contemporary interiors. It wipes clean easily, maintaining aesthetics in high-traffic areas.
- Load Capacity: Up to 50 kg per hinge pair.
- Thickness: 2.1-3 mm for superior strength.
- Mounting: Screw-fixed for wooden/metal doors.
- Pack Options: Sold in pairs or singles for flexibility.
Benefits for Everyday Indian Users
For busy Indian families, these hinges eliminate frustrating door issues. No more forcing stuck doors or fixing misaligned frames—smooth operation saves time during rushed mornings. Contractors appreciate the rust-proof build, reducing callbacks on humid coastal projects. DIY pros using a Bosch GSB 500 RE Corded Drill for installation love the precise fit, ensuring professional results without special tools.
Benefits extend to safety: stable hinges prevent door slams that pinch fingers, vital in homes with toddlers. Energy efficiency improves too—properly aligned doors seal better, cutting AC leaks in sweltering summers. Over years, they outlast competitors, offering ROI through zero replacements.
Real-World Use Cases for Contractors and DIYers
New Home Construction: Builders in Pune or Hyderabad fit these on entrance doors to handle frequent use by workers and families. The heavy-duty bearings withstand installation traffic without loosening.
Renovations and Repairs: Replace failing hinges on old bungalows in Kolkata. SS 304 fights back rust from Ganges humidity, restoring smooth motion instantly.
Modular Kitchens and Bathrooms: In compact Mumbai flats, pair with cabinets for silent, reliable operation. Ideal for wet areas where water splashes corrode standard hardware.
Commercial Spaces: Offices in Gurgaon use them on partition doors for quiet, maintenance-free performance amid high footfall.

Buying Guide: Choosing and Installing Godrej 2-Ball Bearing Hinges
Select based on door weight and environment:
- Light Doors (<30 kg): One pair suffices.
- Heavy Doors (30-50 kg): Use two pairs top and bottom.
- Humid Areas: SS 304 is non-negotiable.
- Quantity: Buy extras for spares—Godrej quality ensures longevity.
Installation Steps for DIY Success
- Mortise door and frame to 3 mm depth using a chisel or router.
- Position hinge 150 mm from top/bottom edges.
- Pre-drill 3-4 mm holes to prevent wood splitting.
- Secure with 4-5 mm screws (included or use stainless for outdoors).
- Test swing—adjust if needed.
Total time: 20-30 minutes per door. For power tools, a reliable drill from the Drill Machines Collection like the Bosch GSB 500 RE Corded Drill speeds it up.
Common pitfalls: Skipping mortising causes misalignment; use a template for precision. In rentals, non-marring screws protect deposits.
