Deltana solid brass cabinet hinges give a cabinet project a full mortise, semi-concealed hinge that suits detailed work where appearance matters as much as function. These hinges use a solid brass construction, which provides the characteristic brass look buyers expect on higher-end cabinet doors. The hinge size of 2 inches by 1.5 inches suits smaller cabinet doors where a compact leaf profile is preferred. A polished brass PVD finish on the hinge presents a bright brass appearance while using a process designed for surface durability in normal cabinet environments. Ball tip finials are standard on these hinges, so the visible ends create a more finished, traditional hinge look when the cabinet door is open. As a Free Swinging Full Mortise hinge in the semi-concealed hinge class, this part supports typical cabinet door movement without built-in closing force, keeping the motion straightforward for everyday cabinet use.
The mounting type listed as Full Mortise means both the cabinet door and frame receive mortises to house the hinge leaves, so the leaves sit flush with the wood surfaces when installed. Square corners on the hinge give the mortise layout a simple rectangular shape without radius corners, aligning with straight-bit routing or hand-chisel work. The hinge uses six holes in the leaf pattern to accept #7 x 3/4 inch wood screws, giving a defined fastener size and length for anchoring into typical cabinet materials. A thickness of 0.093 inch on the hinge leaf informs how deep the mortise must be cut to keep the hinge leaf flush while supporting smooth movement of the knuckle. As a Free Swinging Full Mortise hinge, this design allows the cabinet door to swing on the knuckle without spring action, which suits applications where separate catches or latches handle door retention.
This hinge is identified as a Semi-Concealed Hinge in the Full Mortise Hinges category, so part of the hardware seats into the mortise while the knuckle and ball tip finials remain visible. That classification suits cabinet doors where the installer wants a more refined hinge appearance than a fully exposed surface hinge, but still values the traditional knuckle and finial detail along the door edge. Because the product is described as a cabinet hinge, it fits applications centered on cabinet doors rather than large architectural doors. The 2 inch by 1.5 inch size keeps the hardware scaled to smaller doors and lighter cabinet fronts common in kitchen, bath, and furniture-style cabinets. Ball tip finials supplied as the standard tip treatment give the hinge a classic detail at the top and bottom of the knuckle, which visually ties into other traditional cabinet hardware choices.
The full mortise mounting type and square corners together give installers clear geometry for door and frame preparation, which supports repeatable hinge placement across multiple openings. A leaf thickness of 0.093 inch defines the mortise depth, so repeated cuts at that depth help the hinge leaves sit flush and keep gaps consistent along the door edge. The six-hole hinge layout, matched with #7 x 3/4 inch wood screws, standardizes drilling and fastening steps from hinge to hinge, simplifying jigs and spacing.
