Abstract
A profile frame of a folding door and the associated cabinet-side door frame for a cabinet are described. The profile of the cabinet-side and folding-side vertical beam has a diagonally outwardly open cavity covererd on its end faces by bearing eyes arranged on the horizontal beams. The associated door-side vertical beam is provided with an arcuate step extending longitudinally between the bearing eyes and which is integrated in externally flush manner into the recess of the cabinet-side vertical beam. The arcuate step is coaxial to the bearing eyes and receives the hinge bolts located there. The bolt-side vertical beam of the folding door is preferably provided with a swing bolt, which cooperates over the entire length of the vertical beam with a cabinet-side shoulder and which is operated by means of an eccentric bolt.
