The earliest 100s have "flat" hinges. In addition to the 4 countersink
screws securing the hinges to the door post there is a single hex head
5/16" UNF screw in the center of the hinge plate.
These screws can cause problems after they are installed because they can
prevent the hinges from closing completely and can cause distortion of the
hinge mount(s).
I'm completely at a loss to understand a purpose for these screws ... does
anyone have any idea why they are there?

Thanks,

M
