Abstract:
Various embodiments for hinge arresting apparatuses are disclosed. The hinge arresting apparatus can include a first plate, arresting ribs, a second plate, and an elongated fastener. The first plate comprising a first longitudinal face. The arresting ribs each: includes a first-, second-, and a mid-section; each oriented perpendicularly to and affixed to the first longitudinal face of the first plate. The second plate includes an orifice and a second longitudinal face affixed to the second section of each of the arresting ribs. The orifice includes a threaded inner surface. An elongated fastener is positioned within the orifice and includes a threaded external surface complementary to the threaded inner surface. Each mid-section includes a notch configured to transition over a hinge knuckle. The elongated fastener extends through the orifice and contacts a leaf of the hinge when rotated in a predetermined direction and thereby arrest axial rotation thereof.
