Adjustable Hinges

Adjustable Cabinet Door Hinges – Adjustable Torque and Lift-off Hinges

Our range of adjustable cabinet door hinges includes two advanced hinge types designed for precision alignment and long-term performance. These are suitable for commercial and industrial environments where component access and reliable functionality are critical.

Adjustable Torque Positioning Hinge

An adjustable torque positioning hinge is a friction-control hinge that holds doors, lids or panels at any required angle without extra support hardware. This type of hinge allows for smooth controlled movement and free-stop positioning. It is ideal for cabinetry, electronic enclosures, access hatches, display screens and control panel doors.

The friction level is set via an integrated torque mechanism that can be adjusted to increase or reduce resistance. Once configured, it holds the panel securely in place at any angle from fully open to fully closed without drifting. This eliminates the need for gas struts or mechanical props.

Key Features

  • Adjustable torque resistance for tailored motion control

  • Holds position without springs or catches

  • No slamming or accidental closure

  • Compact design suitable for small to medium panels

  • Can be re-adjusted after installation

Industries and Use Cases
Torque positioning hinges are widely used in the medical equipment sector to hold access covers open for maintenance. In the retail and kiosk industries they are used to support screen covers and folding display units. For electronics and manufacturing they provide an easy way to secure access panels without tools or latches.

Metal Adjustable Inline Lift-off Hinge

The metal adjustable inline lift-off hinge is designed to accommodate misalignment in panel installations or door frames. It features a base plate with a 90° range of adjustment relative to the hinge leaf allowing for better fit and sealing tolerance especially when gaskets are used.

This hinge also allows for the door or panel to be removed without tools by lifting it off the hinge pin. This is especially helpful in commercial or industrial applications where access is needed for regular maintenance.

Key Features

  • 90° adjustable base plate for alignment flexibility

  • Lift-off design enables fast door removal

  • Robust metal construction for durability

  • Easy to install with standard fasteners

  • Suitable for sealing and gasketed applications

Industries and Use Cases
These hinges are commonly used in IT server cabinets HVAC access units and telecom enclosures. Their lift-off feature allows engineers to service units without removing full panels. In industrial equipment they help to align doors on irregular floors or uneven frames without complex realignment of the enclosure.

Case Study
A facilities maintenance contractor upgraded HVAC access doors in a commercial office with inline lift-off hinges. These allowed doors to be installed over gasketed frames while offering engineers fast removal when required for filter changes.

Why Choose Adjustable Hinges?
