gee-dub Posted April 17, 2024 Report Posted April 17, 2024 This is an odd one but, we have so many clever and experienced people here . . . I have a hollow core door on a pantry. I would like a self closing hinge that has a "stay open" detent at 90 degrees or so. I have found hinges that have a "self close" zone that is from 0 - 90 degrees and then from 90 degrees outward. This sounds like just what I need but they are all from companies that I have never heard of and who may not exist in a week or two. Example. What say the collective? 1 Quote
wtnhighlander Posted April 18, 2024 Report Posted April 18, 2024 You exampl looks nice, and the description sonds like what you are after, although I'm often bad at interpreting Amazon product descriptions correctly. No comment on the seller. It is likely a hinge carried by multiple distrubtors, so if the price suits,I'd go for it. 1 Quote

gee-dub Posted April 19, 2024 Author Report Posted April 19, 2024 Yes. They look good but are of course 4" square corner and I want 3-1/2" 5/8" round corner . I have a feeling that with the small pantry hollow core door one hinge may do the job. They come as a pair so I may give them a shot and just do a little chisel work. Thanks all! 1 Quote
