Amerock self-close 1/2 inch overlay hinge describes a steel, semi-concealed, single demountable hinge that is built for face-frame cabinet applications, so installers get a defined 1/2 inch overlay when hanging or rehanging doors on traditional framed cabinets. The self-close function is built into the hinge, so doors are pulled shut at the end of travel, which helps doors sit properly closed without extra catches. The demountable design defines a hinge style that allows the installer to separate door and frame components, supporting removal and reinstallation of doors during finishing or service work. An oil rubbed bronze finish on the hinge brings a dark, traditional hardware look to the cabinet run while keeping the metal surface visually consistent across visible parts of the semi-concealed design.
This hinge is specified as a 1/2 inch overlay style, so the active part of the cabinet door edge extends one-half inch past the inside edge of the face frame when hung, helping installers plan reveals and spacing for adjacent doors. The manufacturer identifies the mounting as screw-on, describing a fastening method that uses screws to secure the hinge to the cabinet and door surfaces. The noted screw size of 5/8 inch defines the length of the screws specified for this hinge, which is important when preparing pilot holes in typical cabinet door and frame stock to avoid over-penetration. With a projection of 11/16 inch, the hinge extends that distance when the door is in position, affecting how the door clears adjacent parts and nearby doors.
This Amerock Corporation hinge is identified as a single demountable style, so the design supports separating components on the cabinet and door during work on face-frame installations. As a semi-concealed face-frame hinge, it is intended for cabinets built with a front frame, leaving part of the hinge visible while the rest is hidden behind the door and frame, which matches projects that do not require a fully concealed look. The hinge width of 1-1/2 inch helps define how much space the hinge footprint occupies on the mounting surfaces, guiding layout on narrower or wider stiles. A length or diameter of 2-1/4 inch describes the overall hinge length dimension, which relates to how far the hinge spans along the edge of the door and frame during mounting.
The projection of 11/16 inch indicates how far the door edge supported by the hinge projects outward relative to the mounting surface, which influences clearance when doors swing past adjacent cabinets or walls. Because this hinge sits in the demountable hinge category, it fits workflows where doors may be removed for finishing or access and then remounted to the same locations without changing the basic hinge hardware. The Amerock BPR8719ORB designation ties the hinge to a specific manufacturer part number, which supports consistent reordering when a job later needs matching hinges for added cabinets or service replacements. Within the product class of semi-concealed hinges, this configuration delivers a traditional hinged appearance with a defined 1/2 inch overlay for face-frame cabinet runs.
The hinge is categorized as a semi-concealed face-frame demountable hinge, so it is intended for use on cabinets built with a traditional face frame on the front.
The 1/2 inch overlay specification means the cabinet door edge overlays the face frame by one-half inch, which guides spacing and reveal layout across a door run.
The self-close function built into the hinge pulls the door closed near the end of swing, helping the door settle against the face frame without additional catches.
The hinge is made from steel with an oil rubbed bronze finish, giving a dark, rubbed appearance on visible hinge parts suitable for bronze-toned hardware schemes.
The hinge lists a 1/2 inch overlay, 2-1/4 inch length, 1-1/2 inch width, and 11/16 inch projection, which together define its footprint and working clearance on the cabinet.
BPR8719ORB is the manufacturer part number used by Amerock Corporation, helping installers reference and reorder the exact same hinge for future work.
The Amerock self-close 1/2 inch overlay hinge combines a single demountable design, defined 1/2 inch overlay, and oil rubbed bronze finish, giving installers a known layout and appearance for face-frame cabinet runs. Steel construction and screw-on mounting support familiar fabrication steps on door and frame stock. With specified dimensions for width, length, projection, and overlay, this hinge offers clear layout references when planning a job or matching existing Amerock BPR8719ORB hardware, so it can be chosen where a semi-concealed, bronze-toned hinge is desired.
