Rockford Process free swinging overlay hinge gives you a semi-concealed hinge option for institutional or similar installations where the door overlays the case and needs consistent swing performance. As a five knuckle hinge, it spreads pivot movement across multiple knuckles, which stabilizes the door motion and helps the hinge operate smoothly under repeated use. The 270 degree screw-on design lets the hinge open up to 270 degrees, which allows the door to swing well past 90 degrees so the opening is less restricted during access or service. A dull chrome finish provides a muted metallic look that suits applications where a bright plated finish is not desired and visual distraction around the hinge line needs to be reduced. The barrel height of 2-3/4 inches, or 51.63 mm, sets the vertical size of the hinge barrel, which helps you match the hinge profile to existing layouts and door proportions.
The 270 degree screw-on design of this Rockford Process hinge signals that it attaches to the workpiece using screws, which gives you a direct mechanical fastening method for mounting onto doors and frames. As a semi-concealed hinge in the institutional hinge category, it is sized and configured so that part of the hinge is hidden when the overlay door is closed, which can simplify layout because the visible leaf and barrel provide clear reference points along the door edge. The 2-3/4 inch, or 51.63 mm, barrel height influences the vertical hinge footprint on the door stile, which helps in setting consistent hinge spacing when multiple hinges are used on a taller door.
This hinge is categorized as an institutional hinge, which aligns it with applications that follow institutional hardware practices where repeated opening cycles and predictable swing are important. The free swinging overlay design supports doors that rest on an overlay configuration, so the door face overlaps the cabinet or case front while the hinge manages the pivot at the edge. Because it is a semi-concealed hinge, part of the hinge remains unseen when the door is shut, which keeps the hardware line less prominent while still leaving the five knuckle barrel visible along the edge for visual alignment. The dull chrome finish contributes a controlled, low-gloss appearance, which suits environments that favor understated metal hardware around cabinetry or casework fronts.
The five knuckle hinge form helps distribute the pivoting load along multiple knuckles, which supports smoother operation when doors are opened and closed frequently. With a 270 degree screw-on design, the hinge can open to 270 degrees, which means doors can swing back near flat relative to the cabinet side, creating more unobstructed access to interior storage. The barrel height of 2-3/4 inches, or 51.63 mm, provides a defined vertical dimension, which helps keep hinge placement repeatable from one door to another when laying out multiple units. As a semi-concealed hinge within the institutional hinge category, it balances visible hardware for straightforward installation with concealed portions that keep the closed-door appearance cleaner, which is useful when uniform sightlines across doors are part of the project requirements.
The Rockford Process P388-26D is a semi-concealed institutional hinge with a free swinging overlay design, so it supports overlay doors while keeping part of the hardware out of direct view.
The hinge is specified as a 270 degree screw-on hinge, so the door can open up to 270 degrees, which allows the door to swing back near parallel to the cabinet side for wider access.
The 2-3/4 inch, or 51.63 mm, barrel height sets the vertical size of the hinge barrel, helping you align multiple hinges consistently and coordinate with door stile dimensions.
The hinge uses a dull chrome finish, giving it a muted metallic look that reduces surface reflectivity and helps it blend with understated hardware schemes around doors and frames.
The five knuckle configuration spreads the pivot action across several knuckles, supporting smoother door movement and controlled swing in institutional hinge applications where doors see repeated use.
The semi-concealed hinge style keeps part of the hardware hidden when the overlay door is closed, which provides a cleaner door face while still exposing the barrel for straightforward visual alignment.
The Rockford Process free swinging overlay five knuckle hinge, model P388-26D, gives you a semi-concealed institutional hinge with a dull chrome finish, 270 degree screw-on opening, and a 2-3/4 inch barrel height that supports consistent overlay door layouts. For projects that call for an institutional hinge that balances visible alignment points with a cleaner closed-door look, this configuration aligns the five knuckle barrel, semi-concealed design, and overlay function into a single hinge choice ready for use on qualifying door and frame combinations.
