Sugatsune center hinge anchors the joint between folding door panels so each panel tracks in line with the next, which helps furniture doors, screens, and partitions move together instead of fighting each other. This hinge is designed specifically as a center hinge for folding doors in furniture, folding screens, light duty partitions, and similar applications, so it focuses the pivot exactly where two panels need to fold. The hinge is a surface mount design, so it sits on the door surface rather than in a mortise, which streamlines layout and speeds installation on solid wood or MDF panels. The product is described as a semi-concealed hinge, which keeps parts of the hardware tucked out of main sightlines, helping projects keep a cleaner finished appearance while still giving you surface access for fast mounting and adjustment.
This hinge is identified as a surface mount center hinge for folding doors, so it fastens directly to the door panel faces where the two leaves meet, reducing time spent cutting pockets or mortises in the edges. The design is aimed at the center joint between panels, so layout revolves around positioning the hinge along that shared edge to set the fold line. Because the hinge works with solid wood and MDF, it lets you keep a consistent installation method across common panel builds, which simplifies drilling patterns and repeat setups on multi-door or multi-screen runs.
This Sugatsune center hinge is targeted to folding doors in furniture, folding screens, light duty partitions, and similar applications, so it fits jobs where panels need to articulate repeatedly along a common line without heavy structural loads. In a folding screen, placing this hinge at the joint between adjacent leaves lets the screen fold out to divide a space and then close compactly when not needed. On a furniture piece built with folding doors, the hinge holds the alignment between door panels so they open with a coordinated motion rather than dragging against each other at the joint. On light duty partitions, the hinge helps define the pivot line where panels reconfigure, supporting layouts that open up or close off sections while keeping the panels tied together. Because it is described as a semi-concealed hinge, it supports these uses while keeping much of the hardware visually low profile, which can matter in living spaces and finished commercial interiors.
The 180 degree opening capability lets the connected panels swing through a wide arc, so panels can fold back closer to parallel and clear the opening or floor area more completely when retracted. That range of motion is useful where you want folding doors or screens to stack tightly to one side without leaving a leaf protruding into the passage. The detent at 37 degrees adds a controlled point in the motion, so the hinge offers a defined partial-open position that can help panels stay put rather than drifting, which is helpful when adjusting a partition gap or staging a folding screen. The design intent for use with solid wood and MDF directs you toward panel materials that hold screws well and take a clean surface mount, which supports a stable installation across repeated cycles of folding and unfolding. As a surface mount semi-concealed hinge, it lets installers locate and fasten it from the face sides, which can streamline retrofit work or field adjustments while still keeping the hardware from dominating the overall look of the project.
The FD30-CHM center hinge is designed for folding doors in furniture, folding screens, light duty partitions, and similar applications, so it suits multi-panel layouts that need repeated folding action.
The Sugatsune center hinge has 180 degree opening, so connected panels can swing through a wide arc, letting doors or screens fold back for a flatter, more compact stack.
The 37 degree detent provides a holding point in the hinge motion, so panels can rest at that partial-open angle instead of swinging freely through the full 180 degree travel.
The FD30-CHM hinge is designed for use with solid wood and MDF, supporting common door and screen constructions in furniture and light duty partition projects.
The surface mount design lets the hinge fasten directly to panel faces without mortising, which simplifies layout and speeds installation on folding doors and screens.
This hinge is categorized as a semi-concealed specialty hinge, meaning much of the hardware remains less visible while still supporting straightforward access for mounting on folding assemblies.
The Sugatsune center hinge FD30-CHM gives folding doors, screens, and light duty partitions a defined center pivot with 180 degree opening, so panels move together cleanly in everyday use. Its surface mount, semi-concealed design supports solid wood and MDF construction, which fits common shop builds for furniture and partitions. For projects that rely on precise folding motion along the panel joint, this hinge offers a purpose-built option that aligns closely with those needs.
