Your Ray-Bans are built to last—but even durable frames can develop hinge problems over time. Whether you’re dealing with a loose screw, wobbly arm, or a broken hinge, the good news is: we can fix it.

At All-American Eyeglass Repair, hinge issues on Ray-Bans are one of our most common daily repairs, and we’ve mastered the process.


🔍 Why Do Ray-Ban Hinges Break?

  • Wear & tear: Screws loosen over time with daily use.
  • Accidental damage: Sat on your sunglasses? You’re not alone.
  • Corrosion: Moisture can cause rust or deterioration on metal frames.

🔧 What We Can Do

We offer expert-level hinge repairs for all Ray-Ban styles, including:

🕶️ Classic Metal Aviators – (RB3025, RB3030)

Known for their thin wire frames and teardrop shape, aviators can easily warp or crack at the hinge if dropped or bent.

😎 Wayfarer Acetate Frames – (RB2140, RB2132)

These iconic thick-plastic frames often experience stress at the hinge from opening/closing or improper adjustment.

🧷 Clubmaster Styles – (RB3016, RB5154)

Clubmasters have a combination metal/plastic construction, making them more prone to hinge cracks and barrel separation.

🧳 Folding Styles – (RB4105, RB3477)

Folding Ray-Bans have additional hinge points—each one a potential weak spot if not maintained properly.

Depending on the issue, we may:

  • Tighten or replace screws
  • Install new hinge barrels
  • Laser-weld broken hinges
  • Realign and reshape the frame for perfect fit

Even if your frames are cracked at the hinge, we have micro-welding equipment that allows us to rebuild the hinge connection—no matter how bad it looks.


⏱️ Fast Turnaround, Local or Nationwide

We offer same-day hinge repair at many of our locations. Not near us? No problem—just mail them in. Our technicians will inspect, repair, and return your Ray-Bans fast.
