Manufacturer References and Positions

Construction and Mounting

• Series: Kason 1556 pivot hinge brackets.
• Construction: High-strength steel.
• Finish: Chrome, as identified for these references in the manufacturer catalog.
• Fastener accommodation: Mounting slots for 1/4" (6.4 mm) screws.
• Order selection: Individual bracket configuration; select the required position.

Function and Commercial Application

The bracket establishes the pivot location and transfers door loads into the mounting structure. Correct alignment with the mating hinge components allows the door to move without binding.

These are replacement bracket components for compatible Kason 1556 hinge arrangements used in commercial refrigeration equipment. They are not complete spring-cartridge hinge assemblies. Equipment brand alone does not establish compatibility.

Common Reasons to Inspect the Bracket

• A bent bracket or damaged pivot connection.
• Excessive movement at the door pivot.
• Elongated mounting slots or loose attachment points.
• A door that sags, rubs or travels unevenly.
• Uneven gasket contact caused by hinge misalignment.

Inspect the mating hinge components, bushings and cabinet reinforcement along with the bracket. A new bracket will not repair a worn cartridge or damaged mounting structure.

Before You Order

• Match the full manufacturer reference to the original part or equipment documentation.
• Confirm top or bottom position and left- or right-hand configuration.
• Compare the mounting flange, pivot direction and bracket shape.
• Measure the mounting slots and pivot location.
• Check compatibility with the existing hinge cartridge or mating pivot component.
• Confirm order quantity and whether mounting hardware is supplied.

Installation and Service

Support the door before loosening or removing any hinge bracket. Install the correct configuration according to the equipment manufacturer's instructions, with the pivot aligned and the mounting surface sound.

After installation, check door movement, clearances, fastener security and gasket contact. Do not force a bracket into position to compensate for an incorrect configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the manufacturer part numbers?

The four references are 11556000021, 11556000022, 11556000023 and 11556000024. Each identifies a different mounting position.

Are all four brackets included?

No. This listing offers separate bracket options. Select the required configuration and quantity.

Can a top bracket automatically replace a bottom bracket?

No. Match the manufacturer's position designation and original geometry. Do not assume that rotating a similar-looking bracket makes it interchangeable.

Are these vertical-mount brackets?

Kason's catalog identifies these four references as horizontal-mount brackets. Vertical-mount configurations use other references.

Does the bracket include the spring cartridge?

The bracket and spring cartridge are separate components. Do not assume a cartridge is included with the selected bracket.

What screw size do the slots accommodate?

The bracket mounting slots accommodate 1/4" (6.4 mm) screws. Fastener length and attachment method must suit the original equipment.

What information helps confirm the correct option?

Provide the original part number, equipment model, bracket position, mounting measurements and photos of both the bracket and mating hinge component. Call 631-873-0509 for assistance.
