Abstract
A hinge for pivotally supporting a glass door to a furniture part or the like. The hinge comprises a housing which fits within a mating through aperture in the door. The housing is provided with a peripheral flange which abuts one surface of the door adjacent to the recess therein and also has a clamping means detachably secured thereto which abuts the opposite surface of the door so that the housing can be tightly secured to the glass door. A generally L-shaped hinge arm is provided which is secured to the furniture part and which defines therein a hollow interior portion. The hinge arm is pivotally mounted to the housing. A latch member within the interior portion of the hinge arm is pivotally supported therein, and a spring resiliently urges the latch in a direction to engage with an abutment on the housing when the glass door is moved to its closed position.
