SOSS BH244 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size SOSS barrel hinge do I need for a 3/4 inch thick cabinet door?
The 14mm barrel hinge is the one sized for 3/4 inch stock, which is the minimum door thickness for that size. The SOSS BH range works off minimum thickness, not a range: 8mm needs 7/16 inch, 10mm needs 1/2 inch, 12mm needs 5/8 inch, 14mm needs 3/4 inch, 16mm needs 7/8 inch, 18mm needs 1-1/8 inch, and 24mm needs 1-1/4 inch. Go thinner than the stated minimum for the size and there is not enough material around the bore to hold the barrel.
2) Can I use SOSS BH barrel hinges on a full size interior door?
No. The BH barrel hinges are rated light duty and are meant for non-load-bearing wood work: cabinetry, furniture, decorative panels, jewelry and keepsake boxes, craft doors. A hung passage door needs a load-bearing hinge, and even the largest 24mm barrel is a small concealed pivot sized to a 1-1/4 inch minimum thickness, not a door leaf. For a concealed hinge that carries a real door, look at the SOSS Invisible Hinge line instead.
3) Does the hinge show at all when the door is closed?
Nothing shows. The BH barrel hinge sits entirely inside bores drilled into the door edge and the frame or carcass, so it is concealed from both faces when closed. That is why it gets specified on display panels and box lids where a visible knuckle would spoil the piece. The trade-off is that there is no surface leaf to adjust, so the two bores have to be drilled in line.
4) What does the mm number on a SOSS BH hinge actually refer to?
It is the bore diameter, the size of the hole you drill for the barrel, not the length of the hinge. So a 16mm BH hinge drops into a 16mm hole and calls for 7/8 inch minimum stock. Pick the size by the thickness of the material you are hinging, then drill to match.
5) Will a SOSS barrel hinge let the door open flat against the cabinet side?
Yes, 180 degrees, fully flat. That is the full swing on every size in the BH range from 8mm to 24mm. If you need the panel to fold back against the adjacent surface (a drop front, a hinged display leaf, a lid that lays open), the barrel hinge gives you that without a stop.
6) Are SOSS BH barrel hinges solid brass all the way through, or just plated?
Solid brass body with brass links, not a plated steel core. For a jewelry box, a humidor, or any piece where the hinge is handled or exposed to humidity, that matters more than it does on a hidden cabinet. The corner profile is a radius rather than a square edge.
7) Is the barrel hinge handed, and does it matter which way the door swings?
Not handed. A barrel hinge is a symmetrical pivot in a round bore, so the same part works on a left or right hand panel and on a lid that lifts. What decides the installation is where you drill, not which hand you ordered.
