During the holiday season, we are always looking for the best deals on high-tech gadgets, games, and tools. At Omni Containment Systems, we pride ourselves on creating, designing, and offering products that provide restaurant owners, facility maintenance managers, and hood cleaners with products that are practical to use. It is this drive and philosophy that has brought to fruition all of Omni’s products. Our Quick-Fit Super Hinge is the epitome of practicality when it comes to hinging your kitchen exhaust fan.

Stability & Safety

When browsing your hinging options, stability and safety should be number one on your priority list. Your employees and customers shouldn’t have to worry about their safety while working; ensure they can give their best effort by making sure your restaurant is safe. Unlike most hinging solutions for exhaust fans, our Quick-Fit Super Hinges cover at least 60 percent of the fan base. This provides a stable weight distribution for the fan, causing less stress on its structure when it is open or being cleaned. This wide coverage also allows a tighter seal for increased airflow inside of the fan. Due to their innovative design, our hinges naturally re-enforce the base of the fan and make it safer for professionals to maintain and clean the fan on a regular basis.

Easy Installation

Our quick-fit style super hinges allow for single user installation and does not require you to turn off your up-blast fan like conventional hinging solutions. The unique mounting system uses a tab-based upper arm mounting system, pinching the walls of the fan tightly to secure a strong grip. The lower arm is fastened to the fan curb to keep it tightly anchored.

NFPA 96 Compliant

Our hinges are NFPA 96 compliant, which means that your restaurant or business will be up-to-code, provided that all other components of the system are compliant and correctly installed. The NFPA 96 standards state, “8.1.2.1 – Approved upblast fans with motors surrounded by the airstream shall be hinged, supplied with flexible weatherproof electrical cable and service hold-open retainers, and listed for this use,” to be considered compliant. Our built-in service hold-open retainer allows your business to be compliant with NFPA 96 regulations and allows easy access when cleaning a fan by yourself.

Conclusion

When selecting your next hinging solution, make sure you choose one that covers at least 60 percent of your fan base and is NFPA 96 compliant. Stability, safety, and compliance should be your top priorities. It can have a direct impact on your business, customers, and team. The Quick-Fit Super Hinge provides an easy installation with a step-by-step guide so your fan can be hinged in no time. Your business should be the best that it can be, with a safe, easy, and NFPA 96 compliant hinge.
