Abstract
A concealable architectural hinge assembly has a mounting bracket with a U-shaped body which seats within a recess in the door jamb and a pair of flanges at its outer ends which extend along a face of the jamb. The mounting portion of one hinge leaf is secured to the bracket base wall and its knuckle portion is along its side edge in the direction of door opening movement, and it extends angularly outwardly to provide an offset barrel portion. The second hinge leaf has a generally U-shaped body with its mounting portion disposed against the edge of the door. It has a displacement or center portion which extends toward the other side edge of the first hinge leaf, and its arm portion extends substantially parallel to its mounting portion. The knuckle portion of the second leaf extends angularly from the plane of the arm position to provide an offset barrel portion aligned with that of the first leaf.
