ABSTRACT:
An adjustable hinge for interposition between a door and a frame includes a frame leaf, a door leaf pivotably mounted to the frame leaf, and an adjustable mounting assembly mounted to the door and with which the door leaf is engaged. The mounting assembly includes a cover fixed to the door and a base mounted to the cover, with the door leaf being engaged with the base. The base is fixed against horizontal movement relative to the cover, and a horizontal adjustment screw is engaged with the base. The door leaf is mounted to the adjustment screw for movement in a front-rear direction along with the adjustment screw to adjust the horizontal position of the door relative to the door leaf, and thereby relative to the frame. The base is mounted for vertical up and down movement to the cover, and an adjustment screw is provided for controlling the vertical position of the base relative to the frame. Substantially the entire extent of the adjustable mounting assembly is received within a recess formed in the door to conceal the adjustment mechanism.
