cabinet hinge

Cupboard door joint

A cabinet hinge is the hardware that attaches a cabinet door to its frame and allows it to swing open and close.

Cabinet hinges come in many styles—concealed hinges hide inside the cabinet, while exposed hinges show on the outside.

The cabinet hinge was loose, so the door hung crooked.
