  • Similar to hinges in laptop computers, these heavy-duty cast-zinc hinges allow virtually any size lid to open smoothly, hold its position (when opened to 90 degrees, beyond that the lid will swing open), and then easily close - all with little effort and no additional hardware! Now available in two attractive finishes, Satin Nickel and Rustic Bronze, to complement any project - from chests, to boxes, to storage units, and more! Hinges are available in 15, 30, 40, and 60 inch-pound ratings. Screws included.

    I forgot about these hinges. A great solution for a project for a family member.

    Nice installation. Very simple and clean. I love it that your instruction was to drill "pilot holes". I absolutely despise the term "pre-drill" that so many use now days. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe. 🙂🙂

    Looks much nicer than a prop rod or hydraulic closer.

    Thanks for the demo.
    Tip: If you’re gonna make a jig for the router. Just make the jig to guide to the cut without needing the chisel work after to square the corners.

    do you have plans available for the jig?

    Will these work if the back of the chest is 1.5 inches thick? I built a toy box out of 3/4 ply with a 3/4 thick face frame

    Do these hinges have lift assist as well?

    What if the lid is the same dimension/flush with the box. No overhang.

    At 2:56 he says to clamp the hinges into position. This works only if you have not already attached the base to the chest. It is misleading if the base has already been attached. Rockler's plan for a rolling ottoman calls for attaching the base before attaching the hinges. Beware.

    are these soft-close hinges?

    I like this product, but I feel like the video is sponsored? If yes, then why wouldn’t you disclose the sponsorship at the beginning of the video.
