ABSTRACT:
A modification of the Z-bar mount portion of the door hinge mount to raise the hinge mount flat portion at its upper portion where the curvilinear bridge piece is located between the insulating mount portion and the hinge portion to extend the extrusion to form a cover stop around the hinge to a point essentially flush with a plane perpendicular to the door lateral edge and overlying the hinge is disclosed. This produces a rounded pleasing cover stop which masks the hinge from the exterior. Also, it inhibits the door from opening at an angle more than 90.degree. from the closed position, which with the pneumatic closer and safety chain produces a three-way redundant system to resist the door blowing off its mount or hinge. In addition, it further blocks the access of strong winds from penetrating the areas between the knuckles of the hinge and the space between the door and mount.
