Hickory Hardware self-close hinge describes a semi-concealed, face mount hinge designed for cabinet use where a clean look and controlled closing are important. The hinge is classified as a semi-concealed hinge, so part of the hardware is visible while the working components sit discretely around the face frame, giving cabinets a more finished appearance without fully hiding the hinge. As a face mount hinge, it fastens directly onto the face frame, which simplifies layout when working with traditional face-frame cabinet construction. The hinge is a variable overlay style, allowing the door overlay on the frame to vary within the range supported by the 3/8 inch offset, which helps when matching existing reveals across a run of doors. The product is identified as model P144-BL with a black finish, so it coordinates with other black cabinet hardware in the same area.
The hinge has an overall length or diameter of 2-3/4 inches, giving a compact footprint on the door and frame that suits standard cabinet stile widths. A 13/16 inch projection moves the door edge away from the frame by that amount when open, which affects swing clearance near adjacent doors or walls. The hinge width of 2-3/16 inches defines how much space the leaves occupy across the mounting surfaces, guiding layout on narrow rails or stiles. The 3/8 inch offset dimension establishes the hinge geometry relative to the door edge and frame front, which ties directly into how the variable overlay presents at the face when the door is closed.
This hinge is categorized under face mount hinges and semi-concealed face-frame hinges, so it is oriented toward cabinets built with a face frame where the hinge must install on the frame front. The steel construction pairs with the black finish, allowing it to act as both a functional pivot and a visible hardware detail on doors and frames in darker kitchens, baths, or shop cabinets. Because the hinge is variable overlay with a 3/8 inch offset, it suits layouts where the exact overlay may differ slightly from opening to opening, such as retrofit work matching existing face-frame conditions. The self-close function suits cabinet locations where doors need to return consistently to the closed position after being moved.
The face mount configuration offers a predictable registration surface on the face frame, which supports consistent hinge placement across multiple doors during production or field installation. The 2-3/4 inch length and 2-3/16 inch width give repeatable dimensions for drilling, marking, or jig use, saving layout time once the first door is set. The 13/16 inch projection works together with the 3/8 inch offset to control how the door swings and sits against the frame, which helps maintain even gaps along the door edge line. The black finish is part of the product description, so doors fitted with this hinge keep a coordinated hardware appearance with other black components, reducing visual mismatch on finished jobs.
The P144-BL hinge is a face mount, semi-concealed hinge for face-frame cabinets, so it suits installations where the hinge attaches to the front of a cabinet face frame.
The self-close feature on this hinge pulls the door into the closed position near the end of travel, which leaves the door resting firmly against the frame after use.
Variable overlay on this hinge means the door can cover different amounts of the face frame within the range supported by the 3/8 inch offset, helping align doors across a cabinet run.
The P144-BL hinge has a 2-3/4 inch length, 2-3/16 inch width, 13/16 inch projection, and 3/8 inch offset, which define its footprint and door movement on the cabinet.
The 13/16 inch projection sets how far the door moves away from the frame when opening, which matters when positioning cabinets near walls or adjacent doors.
The black finish on this steel hinge provides a dark, uniform look on visible hinge surfaces, supporting coordination with other black cabinet hardware.
This Hickory Hardware self-close hinge in black pairs a semi-concealed face mount design with variable overlay, 3/8 inch offset, and defined length, width, and projection, giving clear geometry for planning cabinet door layouts. The steel material and black finish support both function and appearance on face-frame cabinets where the hinge remains partly visible. For projects calling for a black, self-close, variable overlay face mount hinge with these specific dimensions, the Belwith Keeler P144-BL from Wurth Baer Supply offers a targeted option for cabinet builds or updates.
