Pivot Hinges

A pivot hinge is a type of hinge that is used to hang cabinet doors. It is designed to allow the door to pivot, or rotate, around a fixed point, which is typically located at the bottom of the door. Pivot hinges are often used on larger cabinet doors or doors that are heavier than average, as they can support a greater weight and provide a wider range of motion than other types of hinges.

Pivot hinges are typically made from metal and consist of two main components: a mounting plate that is attached to the cabinet frame, and a hinge pin that is attached to the door. The mounting plate has a pivot point, which is a circular or semi-circular recess that the hinge pin fits into. The hinge pin is attached to the door and fits into the pivot point, allowing the door to pivot open and closed.
