“I was so worried about ordering my Murphy Door because it seemed so complicated, and then… I got on the phone with Alijah. He was so helpful and so professional. By the time we were done completing my first purchase, I already started planning additional doors and perhaps beds and shelves as well! If I would have known Alijah was there to assist, I would have made my purchase ages ago.”

Description
Murphy Door® invented the modern hidden door hinge system, and these are the same patented components used in every Panel Hidden Door we build. Murphy Door®'s patented hidden door hinge system is for experienced carpenters who want to DIY their door project! The Murphy Door® Hidden Panel Door Hardware Kit is a complete flush-mount hinge system for single doors up to 36 inches wide, rated to hold up to 200 lbs of decorative paneling.
Murphy Door® supplies the hardware. The panel door design, dimensions, and construction are yours to map out. Our team is here to answer hardware questions, not to design your build: call 1-888-458-5911 or email help@murphydoor.com.
Over 200,000 products shipped from our Utah and Kentucky facilities since 2012. Every Murphy Door® Hardware Kit is backed by a Lifetime Warranty for the original purchaser covering the included hardware and mechanical components, including hinges, structural steel, and mechanical locking components. Electronic accessories are covered for one year.
Questions about warranty coverage for your specific Hardware Kit? Call 1-888-458-5911 or email help@murphydoor.com.
If your Hardware Kit arrives with shipping damage, we make it right. Replacement parts ship out within 2–3 business days.
The pin-based hinge design is what separates this system from off-the-shelf pivot hardware. The pins are removable for door adjustment after installation, and the system is engineered to stay plumb under full load, so your door hangs true the first time and stays that way.

FAQ
Can Murphy Door® hardware be used with a custom-built door or bookcase?
Yes. Murphy Door® hardware kits are designed for DIY builders converting a custom-built bookcase or cabinet into a functional hidden door. The kits provide all necessary hinge, pivot, and mounting hardware in the correct specifications for a bookcase door of the rated weight. Customers supply the door panel or bookcase; Murphy Door® provides the hardware system. Detailed installation documentation is available in the support center. For the best results, confirm your door dimensions and weight against the hardware kit's rated specifications before purchasing.
What is the weight rating of Murphy Door® hinge hardware?
Murphy Door®'s hinge and hardware system is tested to 1,540 lbs and carries up to 400 lbs of shelf load on doors up to 36 inches wide. Heavy-duty pivot hinge configurations can support additional loads for oversized or unusually tall doors. SOSS invisible hinges have lower weight ratings appropriate for unloaded slab doors and lightweight panel doors. Weight ratings for each hardware kit are specified on individual product pages — always select hardware rated above your estimated door weight to ensure long-term performance.
Can I use Murphy Door® hardware on a wall that is not standard drywall?
Murphy Door® hardware kits are designed for standard wood-framed drywall walls. For installations in plaster walls, tile-clad walls, or masonry, hardware selection and installation methods must be adapted. Masonry anchors replace standard screw fasteners; frame shimming may be required for non-standard wall thicknesses. Murphy Door® recommends consulting the installation documentation specific to your wall type before ordering, or contacting Murphy Door® support for a compatibility review.
Can I use Murphy Door hardware on my own custom-built door or bookcase?
Yes — Murphy Door's hardware kits are designed for DIY builders who want to convert an existing bookcase or a custom cabinet build into a functional hidden door. The kits include all hinges, pivot hardware, and mounting components needed for a complete installation on a door you supply. Detailed specs and weight ratings are listed on each product page in the hardware collection, and step-by-step guidance is available in the installation guides. If you have questions about compatibility with your specific build, contact our support team.

A
Works great and online instruction is great
B
Researched options and found this the best for a secret door. Installation is tricky but manageable with instructions.
M
The hinges come with no instructions. I contacted the manufacturer to get the measurements for the positioning. They didn’t help. Found a YouTube video for the measurements. Hinges work great now.
R
We were surprised how smooth it was. The bookcase will hit the maximum weight rating, we feel confident that it will handle it!
T
Hinges work great had a difficult time finding a plan that worked but once I dove in it was pretty fun figuring out how to put it all together.

We set it up just like the single doors but X2, they work smooth and will last for a looooonnnngggg time :) We used to install different hardware (no names mention) but these are set up right and work flawlessly. Thank You!!
J
Haven't installed it yet, have high hopes
I
Great product.
D
No drawings or direction for placement. Solid equipment and one of the best on the market. Will buy again.
P
Works exactly as advertised and fits the intended application perfectly.
T
Built cabinet doors with Murphy hardware. Staff was very helpful and made the project successful.
Z
Hinges are sturdy and smooth but lack instructions/templates. Advice: measure before drilling. A 4-way laser level helps a lot.
D
The hinges seem to be of very high quality, operating very smoothly with a very heavy self-made bookcase door of almost 100 lbs. As the previous review notes, the directions are rather poorly thought out, and at least one set still on their website does not match the hardware you actually get (the pin for the top hinge). I suggest that for self-made doors you create a template for the width and depth of the door, and make sure that clears the final trim as it opens and closes on your chosen pivot point--both top and bottom--and that the pivot points top and bottom are plumb. A bookcase in anything less than a 36" door makes for a very narrow opening.
A
Excellent addition to home decor. Operates very smoothly.
R
A+
I was very amazed at the ease and functioning of the hinge. The only drawback is installation directions are pretty generic, a novice will struggle with the setback dimensions
I wish I could attach a picture.
J
Received quickly. Instructions could improve, but the price is fantastic.
