PGD Nylon Hinge Hush Sleeve Kit

Reduce Garage Door Noise. Protect Your Hinges. Extend Door Life.

After using these nylon hinge hush sleeves on garage doors for years, we’ve seen firsthand how effective they are.

On new garage doors, we typically notice around a 15% reduction in noise, helping create a smoother, quieter operation from day one. This should be standard but unfortunately a lot of new doors still come with metal on metal. 

Where these really shine is on older doors. Over time, the constant movement and weight of the door causes hinge barrels to wear and become oversized. This creates unwanted movement, rattles, vibration, and metal-on-metal contact.

By installing nylon hinge hush sleeves, we’ve regularly seen older doors become at least 50% quieter, especially on heavier doors where hinge wear is more noticeable. It just stops that’s metal to metal contact  noise . Super easy to install just un screw one hinge at a time. Never un screw all hinges (yes we have to say this) 

These are particularly effective on:

✔ Sectional garage doors

✔ Cedar garage doors

✔ Timber-look and architectural doors

✔ Large or heavy custom doors

✔ Older doors with worn hinges

The nylon sleeve sits between the hinge pin and hinge barrel, helping remove play, reduce vibration, and prevent direct metal-on-metal contact. Each kit also includes nylon washers to further reduce friction and noise.

Professional Tip

If your garage door has become noisier over the years, worn hinge barrels are often the cause. These sleeves are a simple, low-cost upgrade that can make a noticeable difference without replacing all of your hinges.
