Abstract (en)
A hinge (10) for mounting a door (56) to a horizontally extending shelf member (58) comprises a first, shelf, bracket (12) and a second, door, bracket (14) adapted for pivotal engagement with one another about a vertical axis. The first bracket (12) comprises a retaining guide (16) typically in the form of a generally U-shaped or L-shaped member for fixing to the shelf (58) so as to abut at least two adjacent faces. A slide member (20) of the first bracket (12) is arranged to be a sliding fit with respect to the guide (16) to permit adjustment of the first bracket (12) laterally of the pivot axis (46, 38) in the direction of the length of the shelf (58). The lateral adjustment of the first bracket (12) permitted by provision of the co-operating retaining guide (16) and slide member (20) enables the lateral position of the hinge pivot axis (46, 38) to be readily adjusted thus greatly facilitating correct positioning of a hinge during hanging of a door. Also disclosed is a cupboard/storage system in which a door is hung from horizontal structural members, e.g. shelves, conveniently using hinges of the invention.
