E1429B Black Mini Snap Hinge – Secure Serrated Grip for Picture Frames
The E1429B Black Mini Snap Hinge is a compact, lightweight hinge crafted specifically for picture frames, decorative boxes, and thin-panel assemblies. The distinctive serrated lower leaf mechanically locks into wood or MDF, preventing loosening over time without requiring adhesive or additional fasteners.
Key Features of the E1429B Black Mini Snap Hinge
Measuring 31mm in width and 37mm in total height, this hinge occupies minimal space on your frame’s edge. The upper leaf spans 10mm and includes an open rectangular slot (23mm × 15mm) that allows tools to pass through during assembly. Three diamond-shaped holes (6mm) on the upper leaf provide strong screw engagement even in thin substrates.
Material & Finish
Manufactured from cold-rolled steel with a matte black electrophoretic coating, the E1429B Black Mini Snap Hinge resists corrosion and maintains a uniform appearance across large production runs. The 0.4mm material thickness keeps the unit flexible enough for easy installation yet rigid enough for repeated opening cycles.
Installation Guide
Position the serrated leaf against the frame’s inner edge. Apply firm thumb pressure to snap the teeth into the substrate. Secure the flat upper leaf with the supplied mounting hardware through the three provided holes. No pre-drilling is required for soft woods.
