Abstract
A hinge for a door pivotally mounted on a cabinet is provided with a switch for activating an electrical circuit within the cabinet. The switch has a reed sensor mounted within a base of the hinge for activating the electrical circuit and a magnetic actuator affixed to a pivot pin of the hinge for moving relative to the reed sensor to activate the reed sensor between a normally open position deactivating the electrical circuit when the door is closed and a closed position activating the electrical circuit when the door is open.
