Screw-on hinges 

What are screw-on hinges?

  • Screw-on hinges are a type of door or furniture hinge known for their ease of installation and versatility. They are attached to the surface of the door and frame (or cabinet body), as opposed to mortise or concealed hinges, which are recessed into the material. Screw-on hinges consist of two parts: one part that is attached to the door leaf and another part that is attached to the frame or cabinet body. Both parts are connected by a joint that allows the door to open and close.

Advantages of screw-on hinges:

  • Easy installation: as screw-on hinges are screwed directly onto the surface, they are relatively easy to install. They do not require complex routing or recessing into the material, making them particularly suitable for DIY projects and quick repairs.
  • Adaptability: These hinges can be used on a variety of door types and materials, including wood, metal and plastic. Their flexibility makes them a good choice for numerous applications, from kitchen cabinets to lightweight interior doors.
  • Maintenance and replacement: Screw-on hinges are easily accessible, which simplifies maintenance and replacement. If a hinge becomes damaged or worn, it can be replaced quickly and easily.
  • Cost: In general, screw-on hinges are less expensive than some other hinge types, such as concealed or mortise hinges. Their cost-effectiveness, coupled with ease of installation, makes them an attractive option for budget-conscious projects.
  • Adjustment options: Many screw-on hinges offer adjustment options that allow the alignment of the door to be fine-tuned after installation. This is particularly useful to ensure a perfect fit and flawless function.
