Hinges

A hinge is a mechanical bearing that links two solid objects and allows them to rotate only at a specified angle. Two objects connected by a door hinge move relative to each other about an axis of rotation. Glass doors with hinges are made of movable components or flexible material. Earlier there was only a single type of hinge but on a contrary, now we have varieties of hinges to choose from. As every detail of the house matters a lot, hinges price also are an important part.

The hinges are very useful as they hold doors and windows together as a whole and also ensure that doors, windows and cabinets can be opened and closed with ease. The usage of joints is usually limited to doors and windows.

 

All types of hinges- soft close, glass door, cabinets etc are available at good prices. Contact us for right door hinges.
