Most ranges within the Furniture For Care Homes bedroom range portfolio come supplied with either 170 or 180 degree hinges. Then ranges that don’t come with these hinges as standard can e supplied with them on request.

As standard wardrobe hinges usually come with a 90 degree hinge. This only allows the door the swing open 90 degrees from the closed position. This can be impractical in small spaces. Our hinges use a 170 or 180 degree swing. This allows the wardrobe doors to open fully. This makes much more use of available space and allows the user to move freely in front of the wardrobe, without being restricted by the wardrobe doors. A great way to improve the use of your space.

170 – 180 degree hinges are also a great feature for wardrobes used by wheelchair users. As the wardrobe doors open fully the wheelchair user is not restricted by the wardrobe doors. In this instance, as the wardrobe doors open right back there is also less wear and tear on the wardrobe doors by the protruding part of the wheelchair. This helps your furniture to stay fresher, and new looking for longer.
