extra thick door hinge kit from Knape and Vogt is designed for installers working with pocket door slides and thicker inset doors, so the hinge geometry supports a heavier face without changing how the slide system operates. The kit is made for 1-1/4 inch door thickness, so it matches projects where the door construction or applied panels push beyond standard thickness, avoiding improvised hinge stacking or shimming. It works with KV pocket door slides, so the hinge layout follows a known pocket system rather than a generic overlay product. The hinge kit is self-closing, so the hinge pulls the door shut at the end of travel, which helps doors sit consistently in the pocket or in the closed position. A black finish ties into darker hardware layouts or concealed cabinet interiors where a dark hinge color is preferred for visual consistency.
This Knape and Vogt hinge kit is matched to 1-1/4 inch door thickness, so the arm and cup relationship are set for that build-up rather than generic thickness ranges. The 1-1/4 inch cup diameter tells you the boring diameter needed in the door, so machining setups can be locked in before production runs. Because it is designed for KV pocket door slides, the hinge swing works with the intended pocket travel, helping doors clear openings as designed. The self-closing function adds a pulling force at the end of the swing, supporting a consistent closed or pocketed position on every cycle. The black finish lets the hardware sit back visually inside darker cabinets or entertainment units, which suits projects where visible hardware contrast is not desired.
Knape and Vogt positions this extra thick door hinge kit for use with KV pocket door slides, so it fits into pocket door cabinet projects that already rely on that slide platform. The 1-1/4 inch door thickness specification means it serves jobs using thicker cabinet doors, such as doors built up with applied panels or denser materials that reach that dimension. The 1-1/4 inch cup diameter creates a clear drilling standard for shops, so pocket doors can be machined on a consistent pattern whether the shop uses CNC nesting or dedicated line boring equipment. Its self-closing action fits applications where having the door reliably seated matters, such as multimedia cabinets or workspace components that need doors returned to a defined position.
The hinge kit for KV pocket door slides keeps the hinge movement synchronized with the slide action, which reduces trial-and-error fitting between the hinge swing and the pocket track. The extra thick 1-1/4 inch door capability allows fabricators to keep their preferred door construction without changing thickness just to suit a hinge, preventing redesign of rails and stiles. A 1-1/4 inch cup diameter is a precise machining value, so jigs, bits, and CNC programs can be standardized across multiple doors and projects. The self-closing feature reduces user-dependent closing force, which means installations stay looking aligned because the hinge brings the door back to its intended rest point. The black finish lets hardware visually disappear in many interior cabinet designs, helping the overall project look clean while the functional pocket mechanism remains in place.
The Knape and Vogt extra thick door hinge kit is used on cabinet projects with KV pocket door slides where the door thickness is 1-1/4 inch, such as multimedia or workspace cabinets needing thicker doors.
The 1-1/4 inch door thickness rating aligns the hinge geometry with that build, so doors of that thickness sit properly on the cups and move correctly with KV pocket door slides.
The 1-1/4 inch cup diameter defines the exact boring diameter in the door, which lets shops set tooling, bits, and CNC programs for consistent cup holes across multiple doors.
The self-closing feature on this hinge kit pulls the door into its rest position at the end of swing, keeping doors seated uniformly in the pocket or closed position after use.
This hinge kit is specified for KV pocket door slides, so its motion and geometry are intended to work with that slide family in pocket door cabinet installations.
The black finish lets the hinge blend with dark cabinet interiors or hardware schemes, so attention stays on the door face rather than on the hinge components.
The Knape and Vogt extra thick door hinge kit gives installers a defined solution when a pocket door project uses KV pocket door slides and 1-1/4 inch thick doors, tying hinge motion directly to that platform. With its 1-1/4 inch cup diameter and self-closing function, the kit supports predictable drilling and consistent door seating on every cabinet run. For jobs that call for black hardware inside the cabinet, this hinge kit aligns color, motion, and door construction in one choice.
