Easy hidden storage access solution
The media could not be loaded. I like how flat the hinges were and that picture frame could open to allow full access to hidden storage. Hinges came with a template and were easy to install.

Looks great and works perfectly
The media could not be loaded. It’s hard to install as a one man job, but I love the result. Exactly what I was looking for!I had a picture of our home printed large enough to cover our circuit breaker box. I used to just hang it over the door with a nail, but this is a much more permanent and elegant solution.

Nearly Perfect Hidden Hinge System
We built our new master bath suite with a hidden panel in one wall and bought these hinges to hide it behind a painting. Great design, packaging was great, directions were fantastic and the hinges nearly perfect. The only complaint we have is that the gauge of the metal used to construct the hinge is a little too thin and the light wire pins are underwhelming, finding the open/close feel wanting. These would struggle with any piece of art of weight. Perhaps future models will be built more substantial. Great product nonetheless!

A bit pricey but works well
I would say it is a little expensive for what it is but I did not have any of the install issues other reviewers mentioned. I was able to get things nearly perfectly level without any sort of tweaking. The painting will protrude from the wall about 1/4" or so which is perfectly normal - the hinge is very difficult to see as it is recessed from the edge and shadowed.My only complaint is that the hinge itself is not the smoothest thing in the world - it will creak when moving around even if you oil it.A couple tips here to share from my install to get it all nice and level:*Choose a nice painting with a good solid wood frame that won't sag when being supported from one side. I bought a 24"W x 36"T canvas from ZLinSigns on Etsy for under $100. I think with anything wider than about 36" people would have issues with it sagging to whatever side the hinge is not on. That is just how physics works....*Use a laser level to line up the top and bottom alignment fixtures so you have a nice and level alignment between the two hinges. A really long level could work as well.*I prefer to use the Hillman Duolock drywall anchors instead of the included self-drilling ones. I find the self drilling ones tend to end up off center of where you mark which will then throw off your alignment.*Use a needle oil applicator to put a few drops of oil on each hinge for smoother operation.

Works Well, but Attention to Detail needed during install
Nicely designed hinge. It works perfectly well in covering a wall safe. We had to 'build up' the edges of our chosen picture frame, since our safe had an exterior number pad raised above the level of the wall. But, if anything, that helped is install the hinge, since it gave more room to work with.The box contains templates, but you'll definitely want to go to the manufacturers website and watch the video a few times. We paused it at critical moments as we completed each step, since it is not intuitively obvious what to do. But, follow along closely and you should be ok.It's expensive, but it works, and at the end of the day, you'll have a nicely concealed safe or whatever, and that makes it worth it 100%. Recommended.

Works!
Takes two people to fit. One person cannot hold the picture and screw hinges into the wall. The screws are too small for the latch. Not as easy as advertised to install but the result is worth it. CanNot tell it once in place.

Extremely difficult to install 'perfectly'
This company is out of their minds thinking this is easy to install. They did a great job with the printed instructions and instruction video, but the issue is the hinge design/alignment factors are fundamentally flawed. I am an experienced handyman, I've installed and leveled 5000lb of garage cabinets, perfectly floated entire kitchen cabinets to walls etc but this got the better of me.Extreme care was taken to align the hinges to the back of the frame, and following their guidelines exactly still yielded a 'slant' from the weight of the frame. Their instructions say to use a level - I used a level and a laser alignment tool which I've used for years but there's too many incremental variables in mounting the hinge to the frame, wall mounting, their hinge manufacturing accuracy etc which all compound into making the hinges slightly twist with one another as they open and close and ultimately making it an impossible task to have a perfectly 'level' painting at the end of the day when its closed.I blew through many holes in my wall because my OCD got the better of me trying to 'counter' the weight of my landscape orientated frame with what the hinges could do so I reset & tried 3 times and it's been a disaster.And on top fall that, the hinges seriously dont close perfectly flush like they advertise, it's impossible because of the thickness of the hinge touching the back of your picture frame.... think about it. The high has to have a gap between the wall and your frame to work. Which is why on their YouTube instruction video they never show you a side on shot when he closes it.Sounds like others mange dot make it work but im 100% certain their pictures are not perfectly level and they're simply satisfied with the gap between the frame and the wall on one side. If you have any sort of OCD at all, and can pic a picture frame thats not straight when you walk into a wall. Forget this product. especially for $90 including tax.
