The company has focused on addressing both the mechanical and aesthetic needs of cabinet construction, with particular attention to concealed and externally mounted hinges suited to industrial, commercial, and domestic environments.

These diecast, aluminium, stainless steel and polyamide hinges are manufactured to ensure durability in challenging conditions, including environments where dust or moisture protection is essential. Their compact format suits modern enclosure design, and many have a full 180 degree opening capability which supports easy access for servicing or equipment integration. These features make them particularly useful in installations where internal space is tight or where multiple cabinets are arranged in close proximity.

A novel development includes their cast hinge series offering a robust 180 degree opening angle. These hinges are designed with secure fitting options, such as traditional screw fixing or innovative push fit technology, which enables installation without the need for tools or visible fasteners. This not only reduces assembly time but also eliminates the potential for loosening due to vibration, making them ideal for use in control panels and electrical enclosures where reliability and speed of access are critical.

In addition to mainstream diecast hinge options, FDB has introduced a series of concealed stainless steel hinges. These are constructed from AISI 304 grade material, ensuring corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. The concealed format not only supports a clean, flush-mounted appearance for high-specification enclosures, but also offers security advantages by shielding the hinge mechanism from external tampering or forced removal.

Concealed hinges are available in pin and parallelogram formats, offering opening angles between 90deg and 180deg. They are compatible with both single-door installations and series configurations, and they allow for doors to be removed once opened, which simplifies adjustment or maintenance. Differing types offer the options to be welded, screwed, or bolted into place, which provides flexibility for manufacturers and installers alike.

Together, these hinge systems represent FDB's commitment to combining practicality with innovation. Whether it is for large-scale industrial cabinets or aesthetically demanding commercial fixtures, FDB's hinge solutions are built to support long service life, secure operation, and ease of use. The inclusion of quick-fit technologies further enhances the value of these hinges by simplifying the installation process and reducing time on site.
