Abstract
A hinge assembly is disclosed. A jamb cover of the assembly is adjustably mounted relative to a wall jamb. An adjuster sub-assembly is mounted within the jamb cover. The adjuster sub-assembly includes a bracket with a nut mounted thereon. An adjuster screw, the head of which is secured in a keyhole slot of the wall jamb, threadably engages the nut. A leaf spring is attached to the bracket, and a hinge member for the door extends through the jamb cover and contacts the leaf spring. The hinge is thus concealed from view.
