ABSTRACT:
A combined slider and hinge structure for a vertical cabinet door is disclosed, which permits the cabinet door to be constructed with its hinged edge arranged flush with the side of the cabinet to which it is hinged. The inventive structure includes front and back columnar interior frame members, upper and lower slides secured to the frame members, an elongated anti-rack plate secured to the sliding members of the upper and lower slides, upper and lower flush-mount hinges secured to the anti-rack plate inwardly of and adjacent to the slides, and a door secured to the hinges. A false exterior panel can be placed over the frame members, slides, and anti-rack plate to conceal them. In operation, the door is rotated on the hinges to an open position, and thereafter the slides are operated by pushing the door directly toward the rear of the cabinet structure, retracting the door and concealing it behind the false exterior panel.
