Frequently Asked Questions
How do I pick the right lateral opening door hinge?
Measure your door’s size—height, width, thickness, and weight—and match those specs to the hinge. The LIN-X450 is a reliable choice for compact and efficient designs.
Can this lateral opening cabinet door hinge work in small spaces?
Yes, it excels in tight areas. Its lateral pivot allows doors to open fully without needing wide clearance, making it ideal for corners or crowded layouts. It only requires 9-⅝” of clearance to open cabinet doors between 15-¾” and 19-11/16” wide.
What makes a lateral opening hinge different from a regular hinge?
Regular hinges swing outward, requiring more space, in fact, a 19” door requires 19” of space to open. A lateral opening door hinge opens to the side, saving space while offering full cabinet access. The LIN-X450 also adds conveniences like soft-close and easy adjustability, which you won’t find in standard hinges.
