  • All hardware includes all fasteners needed for installation. You can order extra fasteners if required.
  • All dimensions are measured width by height.
  • Hardware is available in several different finishes. 70% of our products are ordered in the antique finish.

The hardware industry has always had special hinges available for special applications. Unfortunately, as companies get larger, sales for these unusual products remain the same or even decrease. When measured against more common hinges, it is hard to justify their production. Many companies, including us, have been forced to discontinue some of these specialty products. Our customers come to us for the unusual and we try to keep making them.

HDH-2 is an odd shaped hinge, isn't it? If you have never seen one before, it must make you wonder. This hinge has a single application that we know of. It is used to hinge the door that covers the face of a reproduction clock. The brass plates are mortised into the top and bottom of the door and the thick pins are nailed through the brass into the case.

OK, so the the PB-405 isn't that unusual. We just think it is simply the most beautifully made box hinge you will ever run into! Introduced in 2009, the PB-405 is available our 5 brass finishes plus satin and polished nickel. Customers have asked us off and on again for a quality small hinge, typically for a jewelry box, in nickel. Well it is here.

Clock & Box Hinges

These hinges are definitely quality you won't find in any of the big box stores in our town, or the local woodworking store. I owned and operated a hardware store for 25 years and have bought and seen many thousand items of hardware. I will admit I was hesitant to pay the price for these hinges in the beginning, but having used them and other products from Horton, I pay without a grimace. Horton IS quality.

Clock & Box Hinges

The brass box hinges (1") are the best I have ever used. Even the slot screws are superior.

Clock & Box Hinges

Although I am relatively new new to woodworking, it is easy to appreciate the precision and quality of these hinges. Hinges are extremely well built and close with almost no gap, which makes mortising them clean and easy. These are above and beyond the other "precision" hinges I have encountered and actually add value to any project.
