Clean lines, seamless function
In a well-designed home, the small details often shape its appearance and feel. Concealed hinges allow for a flush finish — just a clean, modern look. If you want doors that sit neatly within the frame without visible fittings, this is the type of hardware you’re after. Also known as invisible or hidden hinges, concealed hinges are most often installed in:
- Internal swing doors
- Custom cabinetry and joinery
- Flush wall panelling systems
- Pivot or oversized doors (with appropriate hinge spec)
Concealed door hinges rely on precision fittings. They’re often found in high-end residential builds where clean lines and architectural consistency matter. At A’besco Architectural Hardware, we supply quality concealed door hinges to support lightweight and heavy-duty applications, from modern homes and cabinetry to large-format internal doors.
Concealed hinges for heavy doors and custom applications
Standard hinges won’t cut it for larger doors. We stock concealed hinges for heavy doors, including the ARLU Argenta Invisible Neo Hinge. This premium solution comes in a range of sizes to suit various door types and meet demanding architectural specifications. Built for performance and precision, the Neo Hinge allows doors to open up to 180° and is compatible with both left- and right-opening configurations.
Heavier concealed hinge models are ideal for full-height doors, solid core or acoustic doors, floor-to-ceiling panels and doors with hidden frames. Homeowners and designers also use concealed hinges for heavy doors where security is a priority. This is because the hinges are hidden, so there’s less chance that entry doors can be tampered with from the outside.
Consistent design, seamless finish
Designers choose concealed door hinges because they blend seamlessly with surrounding elements. With no visible barrels or plates, they work well with shadowline skirting, flush-mounted doors, minimalist interiors and integrated cabinetry.
Hidden hinges help the door sit flat and level with the wall or cabinet around it, making the whole space look cleaner and more connected. Designers often choose them for homes where visual flow matters, like open-plan layouts or gallery-style interiors, because they don’t interrupt the surface with visible parts.
For architects and joiners, they also make it easier to achieve a flush, modern finish without compromising on movement or alignment. Professionals looking for reliable hardware suppliers want concealed hinges that are easy to fit, built to last and available in finishes that match the rest of the project — and that’s exactly what A’besco Architectural Hardware delivers.

FAQs
What is the purpose of a concealed hinge?
A concealed hinge allows a door or panel to open and close without visible external hardware. Its design is clean and minimal, with no exposed parts interrupting the surface.
What are the disadvantages of concealed hinges?
Hidden hinges have no disadvantages; it’s a matter of preference and design. However, concealed hinges need proper planning, precise fittings and high-quality hinges to work as intended. When installed correctly, they’re seamless and long-lasting, which is why A’besco Architectural Hardware only supplies premium options that are built to perform.
How much weight can a concealed hinge hold?
It depends on the model and the width of the door. As a general guide, two standard concealed hinges can typically support between 60–95 kg, while using three can increase the capacity to around 115 kg. Always check the manufacturer’s specs and installation method to get the right match.
