A method of mounting a switch cabinet door to switch cabinet body comprising:

• providing, on the switch cabinet body, a first hinge half having a seat and a second hinge half having a seat, the first and second hinge halves being spaced vertically apart;
• providing, on the switch cabinet door, a third hinge half spaced vertically apart from a fourth hinge half;
• providing first and second hinge pins, the first and second hinge pins having a radially outwardly extending stop;
• partially inserting the first hinge pin into the first hinge half so that the stop is spaced a first distance from the seat of the first hinge half;
• partially inserting the second hinge pin into the second hinge half so that the stop is spaced a second distance from the seat of the second hinge half, the second distance being less than the first distance;
• positioning the switch cabinet door so that the third hinge half is aligned above the first hinge pin;
• partially lowering the door until the third hinge half engages the first hinge pin, while the fourth hinge half remains spaced from the second hinge pin;
• and
• continuing the lowering of the door until the third hinge half has pushed the first hinge pin downwardly until the stop of the first hinge pin engages the seat of the first hinge half, and wherein the fourth hinge half pushes the second pin downwardly until the stop of the second hinge pin engages the seat of the second hinge half.
