Classical 180 deg cabinet door hinge has lift-off

Classical 180 deg cabinet door hinge design features lift-off and universal fitting - providing a smooth action and excellent wear characteristics - and are enhanced with a matched bearing washer.

This addition to the EMKA 1056 programme of hinges is an externally mounted 180 deg opening item specifically designed for the 'prominent' or 'dished' door configurations used on large custom cabinets. The classical design features lift-off capability and universal fitting (with M5 screws). Smooth action and excellent wear characteristics are enhanced with a matched bearing washer - especially important on heavier doors.

Finish is in matt black over a 'milled corner' hexagonal bar style of appearance for added safety, it also incorporates an off-centre hinge pin.

This pin offset adds clearance when lifting off/mounting doors and assists the gasket closure action.

Overall size is 64mm long - width is 15mm, which permits minimal frame margins and maximum door apertures.
