Most hinge pages are written for people building a door from scratch. This one is for the other job: you already have Schlage hardware on the door — an aged bronze lever or knob set — and one hinge has gone sloppy, stained or squeaky. What you need is the exact hinge that matches what’s already there, so the replacement disappears into the door instead of standing out from it.
That hinge is Schlage’s residential 3-pack: 3.5 × 3.5 inch steel hinges with 5/8 inch radius corners in Aged Bronze (Schlage’s 716 finish), model S3P1011FRP716 in the trade listings. It holds a 4.5 out of 5 average across 89 Amazon ratings — a small base, because most of these are bought through hardware channels rather than Amazon. See also: Schlage 3.5″ Door Hinge Review.

The short answer
Buy this 3-pack to replace or match existing Schlage aged bronze hardware: the manufacturer’s own residential hinge in the matching 716 Aged Bronze finish, standard 3.5 inch size with 5/8 inch radius corners, wood screws included, rated 4.5 out of 5 across 89 ratings. Starting a whole house from zero in a different finish? The bulk packs below will cost you less per door.
What you’re getting
Three full-mortise steel hinges — one door’s worth — built to Schlage’s residential pattern: five knuckles, a plain bearing with lubricated knuckles (Schlage’s stated way of preventing binding), a removable pin, and six screw holes per hinge in the brand’s arc pattern, with wood screws in the box.
The finish is the real product here. Aged Bronze is a living-finish look — dark brown with warm highlights — and Schlage makes these hinges specifically to coordinate with its own locksets, so the bronze on the hinge is the same 716 bronze as on a Schlage lever. A no-name “oil-rubbed bronze” hinge next to a Schlage aged bronze handle is where mismatches show; same-brand pairing is how you avoid that.

The good and the not-so-good
- The exact manufacturer match for Schlage aged bronze locksets — same 716 finish, no near-enough bronze.
- Lubricated knuckles, per Schlage, to prevent binding — the squeak fix is in the design.
- Removable pin, so doors come off for painting or flooring without unscrewing hinges.
- Wood screws included, and a 3-pack is exactly one door — no leftovers, no shortfall.
Worth knowing before you buy
- 89 ratings is a thin base — the trade buys this hinge elsewhere, so Amazon evidence is limited.
- Plain bearing, not ball bearing: right for standard interior doors, not the pick for very heavy doors.
- Sold only in 3-packs, so whole-house jobs mean many boxes at brand prices.
Matching, before you order
Replacement matching is three checks, in this order. First, size: measure the hinge leaf — 3.5 inch is the interior standard this pack matches. Second, the corner: hold a coin or the old hinge against the mortise corner — this is the 5/8 inch radius version, and Schlage also sells 1/4 inch radius and square-corner versions that will not sit in the same mortise. Third, the hole pattern: six holes in an arc is the Schlage residential pattern; if your old hinge’s holes don’t line up, you’ll be filling and re-drilling, which is a ten-minute job but worth knowing before the door is off.
Skip this pack if your doors carry a different brand’s bronze — finishes are brand-specific, and matching the brand matters more than matching the colour name. And if the job is a full house of new doors rather than matching existing hardware, per-door cost favours the bulk options below.
Fitting them
- Take one old hinge off and compare size, corner radius and hole pattern against the new hinge before opening the full pack.
- Swap one hinge at a time with the door still hanging, using the existing mortises.
- Drive the included wood screws; if a hole is worn, pack it with a glued matchstick first.
- To remove the door entirely, tap the removable pin up and out rather than unscrewing all three hinges.

Questions people ask
Will these match my Schlage aged bronze handles?
Yes — that coordination is the point of the line: Schlage finishes its hinges in the same 716 Aged Bronze as its locksets.
Are screws included?
Yes — the pack is packaged with wood screws, per Schlage’s retailer listings.
My mortises have square corners — will these fit?
No. This is the 5/8 inch radius version; Schlage sells a square-corner version of the same hinge for those doors.
Can I take the door off without removing the hinges?
Yes — the pin is removable, so the door lifts off its hinges once the pins are tapped out.
The bottom line
Replacement hardware succeeds when nobody notices it. A same-brand, same-finish hinge with the standard size, corner and hole pattern is how a repair disappears — and that’s exactly what this 3-pack is.
