Hinge Cup

The round, cylindrical portion of a European concealed hinge that is recessed into a precisely bored 35mm hole on the back of a cabinet door. The hinge cup houses the pivot mechanism and clips onto a mounting plate inside the cabinet box. The standardized 35mm boring pattern allows different hinge brands to be interchangeable and is a cornerstone of the European cabinet hardware system.
