Default Finding a hinge that matches what was on the door.

We have a project of changing the hardware on the doors in the house from brass to Satin Nickel. The problem that I have is that the hinges on the doors appear to be proprietary and I can't find a match in Nickel.

I have found that Deltana makes a hinge that matches the pattern but they don't carry it in Nickel, or at least the vendors on-line don't offer it in Nickel.

Here is a link to the hinge:
https://www.amazon.com/Deltana-S44R5.../dp/B00772VP4Y

Link to spring loaded version:
https://deltana.net/catalog/steel-st...l-listed/print

Needs to be 4 x 4 x w/5/8 inch Radius and have a "Bench Mark" hole pattern.
The spring-loaded (self-closing) version that I removed from on of the doors has a brand name of "Boomer", and the non spring loaded hinges have brand name of "Seigles".

From what I can tell, BenchMark is a door manufacture with a specific/proprietary hole pattern that only a handful hinge manufactures make.

I need a few that are spring loaded and some that are not.

If anyone could help me find a version of these hinges in Nickel, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You.

Yes, I was able to find the spring loaded version, here is a link to the best price that I can find: https://www.windowdoorparts.com/part...nickel-finish/

Its the non spring loaded hing that I can't find in Nickel.

Thank you.

By the ones with the spring and rip out the spring, or cut off its end.

If the hinge pin comes out, that should be easy, but even if it doesn't.

Thank you.

Thanks, but no.
Pay attention the hole pattern, they are not the same.
Holes should line up with: https://www.doorware.com/site/product.cfm?id=376923

Likely the wrong screw pattern - but that's generally not a deal
breaker - the door CAN be re-drilled.

The doors are steel w/machine threaded screws. Don't want to try and change that placement of the screws ?

Have had to do it in the past.(worked for 2 window/door companies)
Install screws in existing holes to make sure the threaded plate
doesn't move, re-drill and re-tap. Perhaps countersink 2 existing
holes that won't be re-used and permanently install flush screws to
hold the plate. (often 2 holes on each leaf WILL line up)

I guess he could try spray painting the existing ones and see if it might
be good enough. Nothing to lose.

Just tell your wife the current hinges are really just fine- and that
reflected glare from those new ones would make her look 10 years older
and 20 pounds heavier.

Problem solved...

Finally broke down and painted the hinges after I cleaned them really well.
The first one looks good !
I did finally find an article on Benchmark doors, appears they filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2016. So my my guess is that all the hinges that are available are surplus inventory ?

Thanks to everyone who contributed.
