I never noticed the holes were threaded. I just used them to position the t=
hreaded plate while attempting to start the hinge screws. Maybe they were u=
sed for that and the extra screw removed after the hinge was in place.

Subject: [Healeys] Door Hinge center bolt
The earliest 100s have "flat" hinges. In addition to the 4 countersink scre=
ws securing the hinges to the door post there is a single hex head 5/16" UN=
F screw in the center of the hinge plate.
These screws can cause problems after they are installed because they can p=
revent the hinges from closing completely and can cause distortion of the h=
inge 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
