Cabinet hinge
A door should close by itself the last few centimetres, or stay where you leave it. The rest of the note is how we do that in the studio.
Tell us if the floor is uneven. A cabinet that was square in the workshop can twist on a sloping floor. A fixed shelf is final. Pin holes let the shelf move when the objects change.
A door that bounces open is a hinge out of line.

Cabinet hinge is a note from the studio, not a rule for every house. The pieces in this edit were finished with this habit in mind.
If a piece you have does not match the note, send a question with the name of the piece. The reply is more useful than a general rule.
An inquiry is the way to ask. Nothing on this page is a charge.
Keep the habit small enough that it happens. That is the care these pieces were made for.
