Concealed hinges – stainless steel ex-stock from FDB Panel Fittings

Internally mounting or concealment behind door returns ensures that the hinge is protected from attempts to force removal of hinge pins or mounting screws. In many cases appropriate hinge selection enables door demounting once the door has been opened – with easy post-operation refitting.

DIRAK and Pinet stainless steel concealed hinges in pin format or parallelogram designs are available ex-stock from FDB Panel Fittings, with opening angles of 90 deg to 180 degress. They are suited to single cabinets or rows with surface-mounted and flush doors. Fixing is by bolting, screws or welding.
