Amerock self-close 3/8 inset hinge is a semi-concealed double demountable hinge designed for face-frame cabinet work, so it suits common framed kitchen and bath cabinet layouts. The hinge uses a self-close function, which pulls doors shut at the end of travel, helping doors stay consistently closed in everyday use. Its 3/8 inch inset design positions the door edge partially inside the frame, supporting traditional face-frame reveals while keeping alignment predictable from cabinet to cabinet. Being a double demountable hinge, it fits face-frame and door mortises sized for this style, giving installers a familiar interface on both the frame and the door. The hinge is classified as semi-concealed, meaning part of the hinge is visible while the working mechanism is largely hidden, which balances easy access for adjustments with a cleaner cabinet appearance.
This Amerock Corporation semi-concealed hinge mounts with a screw-on method, so it fastens directly to the cabinet frame and door using screws sized to the hinge pattern. The specified 5/8 inch screw size is matched to the hinge design, helping threads bite effectively in typical cabinet substrates. With a 2-1/4 inch length and 1-1/2 inch width, the hinge gives a known footprint for layout, which aids in positioning multiple hinges vertically on tall doors. The 5/8 inch projection tells installers how far the door will stand off the frame face at the hinge side, useful when planning reveals beside adjacent cabinets. Its double demountable configuration connects into prepared frame and door cuts patterned for this style, streamlining change-outs where this hinge format is already in use.
The hinge belongs to the category of semi-concealed face-frame demountable hinges, so it is intended for use on framed cabinet constructions rather than frameless boxes. With a 3/8 inch inset rating, the hinge supports door layouts where the door edge sits partly within the frame opening, which is common in many traditional and remodel cabinet jobs. Its double demountable design connects into both frame and door in the demountable style, keeping the interface consistent when multiple doors share the same construction. Because the body length is 2-1/4 inches, the hinge distributes load across a moderate section of the frame, which helps doors operate smoothly when used in pairs on typical cabinet widths. The 1-1/2 inch width allows the hinge to seat solidly on the frame edge, giving installers a predictable bearing surface when aligning stiles and rail joints.
The self-close feature in this Amerock hinge brings the door closed as it reaches the final part of its swing, which supports a uniform close across a run of cabinets. That self-close action works together with the 5/8 inch projection, so the hinge geometry controls how the door meets the frame and holds against it. Using steel as the hinge material provides a stable pivot structure, which helps the self-close function feel consistent over repeated cycles. The oil rubbed bronze finish also does more than change color; it covers the steel surface, providing a finished look wherever the semi-concealed portions remain visible along the frame. The demountable style allows the hinge to interact precisely with the frame and door cuts designed for this category, helping installers maintain the same closing behavior when replacing or adding doors in an existing layout. Across a bank of cabinets, the matching 3/8 inch inset specification helps doors line up in depth, giving a uniform face alignment that supports clean sight lines.
The hinge is a semi-concealed face-frame demountable hinge, so it is intended for framed cabinet constructions that use demountable hinge mortises.
The 3/8 inch inset setting positions the door partially inside the frame opening, guiding consistent reveals and depth alignment across matching cabinet doors.
The self-close feature pulls the door closed at the end of travel, helping doors stay shut without relying solely on magnetic or catch hardware.
The hinge has a 2-1/4 inch length, 1-1/2 inch width, 3/8 inch inset, and 5/8 inch projection, which together define how it fits and positions the cabinet door.

The Amerock self-close 3/8 inset hinge in oil rubbed bronze suits projects that use semi-concealed face-frame demountable hardware and call for a 3/8 inch inset layout. With steel construction, a 2-1/4 inch by 1-1/2 inch body, and 5/8 inch projection, it offers known dimensions that simplify planning hinge locations across multiple doors. The self-close function and oil rubbed bronze finish align appearance and daily operation in one component, supporting coordinated cabinet runs where both fit and visual match are important. For work specifying Amerock Corporation part BPR8700ORB, this hinge provides the defined geometry and finish needed to match that callout.
