2 x 2 hinge antique nickel identifies this Deltana solid brass cabinet hinge as a compact option for cabinet doors where a smaller, square profile is preferred, which helps keep face-frame projects visually consistent across a run of doors. The hinge is described as free swinging and full mortise, so the leafs sit in routed mortises and move without built-in stops, giving you a smooth door motion that follows the geometry of your hinge layout. Its solid brass construction provides a dense hinge body, which supports a precise mortise fit and gives a refined feel when the door is operated. The antique nickel finish defines the visual character of the hinge, allowing it to coordinate with other antique nickel hardware in the same installation so the cabinet layout presents a unified appearance on doors, drawers, and exposed trim elements.
The mounting type is specified as full mortise, so both hinge leaves sit into recesses in the door and frame, which lets the outer surfaces stay close to flush and supports consistent reveals along the hinge side. The corners are listed as square, meaning the mortises can be routed with a straight bit and finished square with a chisel, allowing the leaf to register firmly against the wood with no corner gaps. Hinge thickness is given as .093 inch, so the mortise depth can be cut to match that material thickness and helps you control how the door sits relative to the face frame. The hinge uses wood screw #7 x 3/4, so the pilot holes can be laid out for that shank size and depth, supporting a secure bite into cabinet-grade stock.
The product is classified as a semi-concealed hinge in the full mortise hinge category, placing it in applications where part of the hinge knuckle remains visible while the leaves sit buried in the wood, which suits traditional cabinet layouts. Being described as a cabinet hinge directs it toward doors on casework and similar built-ins, where the door weight and swing fall within what a 2 x 2 solid brass pattern typically supports. The Deltana brand and CH2020U15A part number give a defined reference when matching hinges across a project, so you can specify the same hinge on multiple openings and keep door swing characteristics and appearance consistent. The antique nickel finish and ball tip finials together create a traditional visual at the hinge barrel, which works well when other visible hardware on the job uses the same finish family and design language.
The full mortise mounting type means door and frame edges carry carefully sized pockets for the leaves, so once those pockets are cut to the .093 inch thickness, the hinge sits predictably, which helps keep reveals and margins repeatable from door to door. Square corners on the hinge leaves simplify layout because you can work directly to a rectangular mortise, and that clean geometry gives a solid shoulder for the hinge to bed against, supporting accurate alignment during installation. The 2 x 2 dimension keeps the hinge compact on the stile, which is useful when stile widths are tight and you still want enough leaf coverage to support the swing. The specified wood screw #7 x 3/4 length and gauge match the hinge holes, which lets each screw seat properly in the countersinks so the leaf clamps evenly to the mortised surface and helps minimize unwanted movement during the life of the cabinet.
The CH2020U15A model is a Deltana solid brass cabinet hinge described as free swinging and full mortise, so it suits mortised cabinet door installations where a smooth, unrestricted swing is needed.
The 2 x 2 inch size gives a compact hinge footprint, which fits smaller cabinet doors and keeps more stile width available for door construction and reveal control.
Full mortise mounting means both leaves are recessed into the door and frame, keeping outer surfaces near flush and helping maintain consistent door gaps along the hinge side.
Square corners mean the mortise is a true rectangle, so the hinge seats tightly against straight walls and shoulders, aiding precise alignment on the cabinet door and frame.
The .093 inch hinge thickness defines how deep the mortise should be cut, which helps position the door correctly relative to the face frame once the hinge is installed.
The specified #7 x 3/4 wood screws correspond to the hinge holes, allowing suitable pilot holes and bite depth so the hinge leaf clamps firmly to cabinet-grade stock.
This Deltana free swinging full mortise hinge in antique nickel pairs solid brass construction with a compact 2 x 2 size, so it supports cabinet doors while keeping hardware visually modest. The square-corner, .093 inch thick leaves suit routed mortises where precise fit is important. With wood screw #7 x 3/4 mounting, the hinge ties securely into the door and frame, giving you a defined hardware choice when consistent swing, alignment, and antique nickel styling are priorities on a cabinet project.
