Cabinet hinges are the quiet drivers of smooth, consistent door movement, shaping how your kitchen, bath, workshop, or closet storage feels every day. This category brings together concealed European hinges, soft-close hinges, overlay and inset options, face-frame and frameless mounting plates, plus specialty choices like surface-mount, wrap-around, demountable, piano, and barrel styles. The right hinge improves alignment, protects doors from slamming, extends hardware life, and upgrades the look with clean lines and finishes that match pulls and knobs.

Choose hinges by door style and cabinet construction. Measure your overlay, confirm cup size (commonly 35 mm) and cup depth, and select an opening angle that fits the space—95°, 110°, 125°, or 165° for wide access and pull-outs. For face-frame cabinets, pair the hinge with the correct mounting plate; for frameless boxes, match the system holes. Soft-close mechanisms add a quiet, controlled close that’s great for busy kitchens and families. Look for 3-way adjustment (height, side-to-side, and depth) to dial in perfect reveals after installation.

Materials and finishes matter. Steel and stainless steel offer strength and corrosion resistance; brass and zinc alloys provide a classic feel. Popular finishes include satin nickel, chrome, oil-rubbed bronze, and matte black, letting you coordinate cabinet hardware across your space. Check door thickness compatibility, load rating, and the number of hinges required—two for most doors, three for taller or heavier panels.

Installing cabinet hinges is straightforward with the right tools. Use a 35 mm Forstner bit or hinge jig for cup holes, drill pilot holes for screws, and test-fit before final mounting. Clip-on designs speed up door removal and cleaning. For maintenance, tighten screws periodically and lubricate moving parts as needed. Shop this cabinet hinge selection to replace worn hardware, upgrade to soft-close, or outfit a new build with long-lasting, smooth performance. Find the right fit today.
