Hinge Basetech BT-1697225 39×30×4 mm — compact metal hinge for cabinets and boxes

Basetech BT-1697225 is a compact metal hinge with overall dimensions of 39×30×4 mm, designed for cabinets, small doors and enclosures that require a low-profile pivot point. Constructed for everyday furniture and box applications, this hinge provides a durable connection for regular opening and closing while occupying minimal visible space. Its slim design makes it suitable for retrofit projects and new installations where discrete hardware is preferred.

Advantages

The hinge combines a small footprint with a metal construction that ensures stability and resistance to typical wear from repeated use. Its shallow thickness allows doors and panels to close with minimal gap, and the simple geometry supports straightforward drilling and mounting. Because of its compact size, it reduces interference with adjacent fittings and maximizes usable interior space in small enclosures.

Suitable for

• Cabinet doors for kitchen units, bathroom cabinets and utility cupboards
• Small access panels and service doors on furniture and equipment
• Wooden or metal boxes, instrument enclosures and junction boxes
• Retrofit projects where existing large hinges must be replaced with smaller hardware

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 39 × 30 × 4 mm (length × width × thickness)
• Material: metal construction for strength and durability
• Mounting style: surface-mounted hinge suitable for screws or bolts
• Profile: low-profile design to minimize visible hardware and reduce gaps
• Typical application: small doors and enclosures with regular opening cycles

How to use

Position the hinge on the door and frame or on the box edges to determine optimal alignment and reveal the correct pivot point. Mark and drill pilot holes to match the chosen screws or bolts, then fasten the hinge leaves securely to both mating surfaces. Check movement for smooth opening and closing; if necessary, adjust mounting positions or tighten fasteners to eliminate play. For retrofit installations, remove the existing hinge, prepare the mounting surface to match the compact footprint, and install the new hinge accordingly.

Usage recommendations

Use corrosion-resistant screws if the hinge will be exposed to humid environments. For heavier doors or frequent high-load applications, choose additional hinges or verify that the selected hinge material and mounting method support the intended load. Periodic inspection and tightening of fasteners will maintain reliable operation over time.
