Abstract
The hinge has a bracket for mounting on a door frame, an adjusting plate for securement to a door, a flange pivotally mounted on the bracket and disposed over the adjusting plate and captive nut assemblies for securing the flange to the adjusting plate in a releasable longitudinally adjustable manner. Loosening of the captive nut assemblies allows the door to be moved laterally of the frame before tightening of the captive nut assemblies fixes the door relative to the frame.
