WANLIAN 170 Degree Soft Close Frameless Cabinet Door Hinges, 1 Pair

Very similar to the SOSS 204 hinge. I was able to use the same router guide and template. The price right for me.

The action is nice on these hinges. But, they may not work for you. Here is what you should know: 1) The hinges fit when the stationary part of your work is 5/8" or thinner. The thickness of the moving part does not matter. 2) The hinges arrive with no template or instructions. You need to figure out the placement yourself. I bought early in my project and set them aside. I missed the return window. My bad. But I would not have purchased the hinges if I knew ahead of time that they would not fit my my cabinet made of 3/4" maple.

I like the price, you get 2 pairs (4 hinges) per pack. The first pack i got, two of the 4 hinges have a little loose in them, one of the two "might" have been my fault but that leaves one that wasn't my fault. I haven't opened the second pack, one project at a time lol.The screws provided are nice and strong, but too big for most holes on the hinges (phillips #8 screws are the provided ones in pictures), test all holes to see if the screws fit before using and get yourself #6 screws of appropriate length, seriously. I won't reduce rating for the loose, it's minimal and i look at other sellers and they have complaints of the same problem (the hinges of this size and specs all look identical, i think it's the same manufacturer no matter the seller, but i could be wrong). Anyway they work great, i don't need 170-135 degree opening but these work for thicker wood. The wood I'm using is from old crates and has an average thickness of 7/8" and these hinges work. The only thing missing that would have been useful is the "instructions" (measurements) for hinge placement. But if you look at other sellers they have pictures, giving you what you need. They were easy to install, but i wanted the pictures with measurements first. I don't know how they will hold up long term, i just installed them for testing and removed them after, easier to finish the project. But for now, they work, I'm happy, 5 stars. Good price (at time of writing this). And remember to get #6 screws, locally if possible.

I installed these on 2 hidden doors on my fireplace, functional in the fact that they close tight creating an almost seamless appearance. Fairly easy to install if you have the right tools, better quality than you would get at a big box store and half the price.

The hinges have far too much give/movement in them and my hatch door ( which is not heavy ) drops by almost half an inch as soon as it’s opened. This means the door doesn’t close back into its hole unless I lift the door. There is no way to tighten them, so overall a pretty useless hinges.
