Amerock self-close 3/8 inset face mount hinge gives a face-frame cabinet door a semi-concealed hinge layout while providing a self-closing action that pulls the door shut at the end of travel, which helps doors sit closed without manual pushing every time. This hinge is designed as a face mount style, so it attaches directly to the face frame and door edge, supporting common framed cabinet construction in shops and on retrofit work. The 3/8 inch inset design positions the door partially inside the frame opening, which supports traditional partial inset cabinet styling on kitchens, baths, and built-ins that use this reveal. As a semi-concealed hinge from Amerock Corporation, it leaves only a small amount of hinge visible, which keeps the hardware presence low while still allowing straightforward alignment and adjustment during installation tasks.
This Amerock self-close 3/8 inch inset face mount hinge uses a screw-on installation method, so it fastens directly through the hinge plates into the cabinet face frame and door, supporting straightforward mounting with standard drilling and driving tools. Because it is a face mount semi-concealed hinge, layout work takes place from the front of the cabinet, which helps maintain consistent reveals along a bank of doors using familiar reference lines on the frame. The 3/8 inch inset specification defines how far the door edge sits inside the frame opening, which guides hinge placement for matching existing partial inset doors during repair, replacement, or additional door work on an existing run.
This Amerock self-close 3/8 inch inset face mount hinge is intended for face-frame cabinets that use partial inset door construction, so it suits kitchen, bath, and built-in cabinetry built around a 3/8 inch inset dimension. As a semi-concealed hinge in the face mount hinge category, it fits projects where some hardware visibility is acceptable while keeping most of the mechanism out of sight, which matches many traditional and transitional cabinet designs. The screw-on configuration supports both new cabinet builds and hinge replacement work on existing doors already drilled for surface-mount hinge plates, because fastening points remain accessible from the front. The champagne bronze finish makes this hinge a practical match for cabinetry that also uses champagne bronze pulls and knobs, helping tie the visible portions of the hinge into the overall hardware scheme.
The manufacturer part number BPR3428CZ identifies this exact Amerock self-close 3/8 inch inset face mount hinge in champagne bronze, which helps fabricators and installers reorder the same hinge style when matching existing jobs or stocking service parts. Every item in this Amerock functional hardware series is tested for durability in conditions exceeding KCMA certification requirements and BHMS standards for cycle life, strength, and finish quality, so the hinge is designed to keep operating and keep its finish under demanding cabinet door cycling. That level of testing supports long-term door alignment because the hinge components are built to resist loosening or deforming under repeated opening and closing. As a semi-concealed hinge, it also allows quick visual checks of hinge position and movement, aiding in troubleshooting door sag or binding and supporting straightforward adjustments using basic tools. The self-close function further helps doors return to the same closed position, which is important when aligning multiple doors along a run to present straight, even reveals.
The hinge is specified as 3/8 inch inset, so it is used on face-frame cabinets where the door sits partially inside the opening with a 3/8 inch inset relationship to the frame.
The hinge is self-close, so it pulls the door shut near the end of travel, helping doors return to a fully closed position and supporting uniform alignment along a cabinet run.
Face mount means the hinge fastens to the front face frame and door surface, allowing installation and alignment from the front of the cabinet using straightforward screw-on mounting.
