Hickory Hardware Self-Close 3/8 Inset Face Mount Hinge is a semi-concealed steel hinge designed for face-frame cabinet doors with a 3/8 inch offset, so it supports common partial inset layouts across many shop and jobsite builds. The face mount style positions the hinge directly on the frame, giving installers a straightforward layout when aligning doors to existing reveals. A self-close function pulls the door tight at the end of the swing, which helps keep doors seated without extra adjustment after install. The satin nickel finish provides a neutral, modern look that pairs well with a wide range of pulls and knobs on residential or light commercial cabinets. As part of the 20011-2 collection from Belwith Keeler, this hinge follows a consistent design language that can be repeated across multiple openings for a uniform project appearance.
This self-close 3/8 inset face mount hinge is specified with a 3-3/16 inch length or diameter, which helps set expectations for how much of the hinge will span along the cabinet edge and door stile during layout. A width of 2-1/4 inches defines the hinge footprint across the door and frame, so installers can visualize edge clearances when planning hinge placement. The 3/8 inch offset value relates to how the door sits in relation to the face frame, allowing planning of consistent overlays along a bank of doors. A projection of 15/16 inch describes how far the hinge assembly stands out, which matters when checking door swing near adjacent walls, cabinets, or trim.
This semi-concealed face mount hinge is suited to face-frame cabinet applications where a 3/8 inch offset is required, aligning well with partial inset cabinet doors that reveal part of the frame. The hinge belongs to the semi-concealed hinges class, so part of the hardware remains visible on the door and frame, matching traditional and transitional cabinet styles where visible hinges are part of the design. With a projection of 15/16 inch, the hinge supports door movement while keeping the door closely related to the frame, which is useful along runs of cabinets where tight clearances matter. The satin nickel finish works with projects that specify a satin nickel hardware schedule, so knobs, pulls, and hinges can share the same visual tone along the installation.
The hinge uses a screw-on mounting style, which gives installers a familiar approach with standard pilot holes and straightforward alignment along the frame and door edges. A center to center dimension of 2-1/8 inches between mounting points provides a fixed spacing that can be transferred to templates or jigs, speeding layout when multiple doors use the same hardware pattern. The 3-3/16 inch overall length or diameter gives an additional reference for positioning, helping keep hinges stacked consistently from door to door. As a self-close hinge, it draws the door in at the end of travel, helping the door settle against the cabinet without relying solely on door weight, which supports a clean finished appearance. The steel material provides a stable platform for the moving parts within the self-close function, which supports smooth repeated operation in daily cabinet use.
The 3/8 inch offset suits face-frame cabinets with partial inset doors, where the door overlays the frame by 3/8 inch, helping maintain consistent reveals along a run of doors.
The face mount design positions the hinge on the surface of the cabinet frame, so installers reference the front of the frame during layout, simplifying marking and drilling.
The self-close feature on this hinge pulls the door shut at the end of its swing, helping the door rest against the cabinet without relying on additional catches.
The 2-1/8 inch center to center spacing sets fixed screw positions, which aids in creating jigs or templates for consistent hinge placement on multiple doors.
The 15/16 inch projection indicates how far the hinge assembly extends, helping assess door movement near adjacent cabinets, walls, or trim.
The satin nickel finish allows this hinge to align with satin nickel pulls and knobs, supporting a coordinated hardware look across cabinets in the same space.
The Hickory Hardware Self-Close 3/8 Inset Face Mount Hinge P295-SN combines a 3/8 inch offset, self-close action, and face mount layout to support partial inset face-frame cabinet projects. Steel construction and a 3-3/16 inch by 2-1/4 inch footprint provide a defined hardware presence that aligns doors reliably along frames. The satin nickel finish and semi-concealed profile suit installations where the hinge is meant to be seen but not dominate the design. For new cabinets or updating existing face-frame runs to satin nickel hardware, this hinge offers a consistent set of dimensions and functions to plan around.
