The Sugatsune GP-40 is a screw-on pivot hinge designed to hang glass cabinet doors on a top-and-bottom pivot axis, finished in Satin Nickel to complement visible display and showcase installations.
Pivot hinges are a natural fit for display cabinets, showcases, and glass-front uppers where side-mounted arms would interrupt a clean sightline. The GP-40 turns the door on a top-and-bottom pivot axis rather than a swing arm, so the hardware that shows on the glass stays compact and symmetrical. Because it mounts directly by screw, it does not rely on a cabinet-side base plate — the hinge goes straight into the cabinet's top and bottom mounting points, keeping the install straightforward.
This hinge carries doors up to 8.8 lb per pair, which suits the lighter glass panels typical of display and upper cabinet work. Confirm your door weight before specifying; heavier panels need a hinge rated to match.
Because a glass door is transparent, every piece of hardware on it reads as part of the design. The GP-40 ships in Satin Nickel, a brushed, mid-tone silver that pairs well with stainless steel fixtures, brushed-nickel pulls, and contemporary or transitional cabinetry. If your project calls for a different metal tone, this hinge family is also available in other finishes. Sugatsune machines these hinges to tight tolerances, so the finish sits evenly and the pivot action stays consistent after installation.
Cabinet shops building display cases and glass-front wall units rely on pivot hinges like this one when the design calls for a centered, symmetrical mount rather than a concealed arm on the side. Designers specifying kitchen uppers or library cabinets with glass doors use the Satin Nickel finish to tie the hinge hardware into the rest of the visible metal in the space. Installers working on replacement or retrofit projects appreciate the screw-on attachment: it goes directly to the cabinet without additional mounting hardware to source separately.
The 8mm glass requirement means this hinge is sized for standard glass door panels. If the project uses thinner or thicker glass, confirm the correct GP-40 variant before ordering.
This is a screw-on pivot hinge, not a bore-through model, so the tempered requirement tied to drilling does not apply here. That said, glass doors in cabinet applications are typically tempered as a safety standard regardless of hinge type. Follow the glass specification for your project.
No. The GP-40 is a screw-on pivot hinge that fastens directly to the cabinet. There is no separate base plate to order.
It is sized for 8mm (5/16 in) glass panels. Verify your glass thickness matches before ordering.
A concealed Euro hinge mounts a swing arm to the side panel and attaches to the door via a cup bored into the back of the door. A pivot hinge like the GP-40 turns the door on a top-and-bottom axis, mounts by screw, and is specifically designed for glass rather than wood doors.
The GP-40 pair is rated for doors up to 8.8 lb. For heavier panels, look for a pivot hinge with a higher weight rating.
The Sugatsune GP-40 in Satin Nickel gives glass cabinet doors a symmetrical, low-profile pivot mount that fits neatly into any display or showcase design where the hardware is part of the look.
