What types of gold hinges are there?
For doors, you often have the choice between ball-bearing and non-ball-bearing hinges. A ball-bearing hinge operates particularly smoothly and is ideal for heavy-duty use or heavier interior doors. A standard, non-ball-bearing hinge is lighter in construction and suitable for normal interior doors and cupboards. For furniture, there are compact furniture hinges, such as flap and chest hinges, which ensure a flap opens and closes smoothly. If you’re working on a humidor, jewellery box or luxury chest, quarter-circle hinges offer an almost invisible, elegant solution as they are fitted flush with the surface. For a sleek, modern look, there are also concealed hinges that are hidden from view once fitted. All these types are available in shades of gold, including popular options such as matt gold PVD for a contemporary look. Prefer a different shade? Take a look at black hinges for a striking contrast. For light-coloured interiors, white hinges are a subtle choice.
Material and finish: brass, gold-coloured and matt gold PVD
The term ‘gold hinges’ usually refers to hinges with a gold-coloured finish. This can be solid brass — see also our brass hinges — or a base made of, for example, stainless steel with a matt gold PVD coating. If you prefer a neutral metallic shade, stainless steel hinges are a solid choice. PVD is known for its wear and corrosion resistance and ensures a consistent colour match with modern door fittings. Solid brass offers a warm tone and polishes well, whilst PVD particularly excels in colour fastness and ease of maintenance.
Choose the right hinge for your project
First, consider the size and weight. For interior doors, 76 x 76 mm is a commonly used size, whilst heavier or taller doors require larger or additional hinges. For standard doors, usually fit two hinges and add a third for heavy or tall doors. For cupboards and flaps, choose more compact sizes and pay attention to the desired opening angle. For small boxes and humidors, small quarter-circle hinges or mini hinges offer a neat, recessed fit. In damp areas, a PVD finish on a stainless steel base is a safe choice due to its extra corrosion resistance. Unsure about the size or type?

Match with your door fittings
If you want to create a cohesive look, combine gold hinges with gold door handles. PVD matt gold door handles, escutcheons and rosettes ensure a consistent look throughout your interior.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between gold and brass hinges?
Gold often refers to a gold-coloured finish, such as matt gold PVD. Brass is the base material itself. Whilst they may look similar, their properties differ: PVD is colourfast and wear-resistant, whilst solid brass is traditional and can be polished.
Which hinges are the strongest?
Ball-bearing hinges are generally the strongest and offer the smoothest operation. Combine the correct size with sufficient hinges per door and, for heavy-duty applications, choose a robust base material, such as stainless steel with PVD.
How long does it take for a gold hinge to arrive?
The delivery time depends on stock levels and finish. Many standard sizes in matt gold PVD are available at short notice, whilst customised or project-specific variants may take longer. Check the product page or get in touch.
What is the difference between a ball-bearing hinge and a non-ball-bearing hinge?
A ball-bearing hinge features ball bearings for quiet, durable and very smooth operation. A non-ball-bearing hinge is simpler and more cost-effective, and is often sufficient for light doors or furniture applications.
