2″ Precision Solid Brass Butt Hinges with Ball Tips: Architectural Detail Meets Mechanical Perfection

Add a refined finishing touch to your cabinetry with the industry’s most precise decorative hinge.

Our 2″ Precision Solid Brass Butt Hinges with Ball Tips are the decorative counterpart to our world-class precision hinges. By combining the tight tolerances of a machined solid brass extrusion with the classic aesthetic of ball-tip finials, we have created a hinge that performs as beautifully as it looks.

Part of the Horton Brasses Standards Collection, these hinges are engineered to eliminate the “sag and jiggle” found in mass-produced hardware. They provide a rock-solid, silent swing for 1″ thick cabinet doors and fine furniture.

Why These Precision Hinges Excel:

• Decorative Ball Tips: The elegant ball-tip finials add 1/2″ of total height (1/4″ on each end), providing a classic architectural profile that complements traditional, colonial, and transitional designs.

• Machined Accuracy: Unlike common stamped hinges, these are machined from solid brass extrusions. This allows for a 7-knuckle design with incredibly close tolerances, ensuring the door hangs perfectly level and stays that way.  

• Substantial Strength: With a 3/32″ leaf thickness, these hinges offer the heft and durability required for high-traffic kitchen cabinets and heirloom-quality furniture.

• Rattle-Free Fixed Pins: Our pins are engineered to remain fixed and silent, providing a smooth-as-silk operation that feels premium every time you open a door.

Signature Hand-Applied Finishes
