Almost every modern hinge pack is rounded-corner. This one is the exception that a lot of older and custom doors actually need: an 18-pack of 3.5 inch brushed nickel hinges with square corners, and a removable pin.
Square corners are not a style choice — they’re a mortise match. If your door’s hinge mortises are cut square, a radius hinge leaves gaps at the corners and sits wrong. This pack exists for those doors, in satin nickel’s brushed finish, and it holds a 4.7 average across 357 Amazon ratings. See also: goldenwarm 3 Pack Brushed Nickel Door Hinges Review.

The short answer
Buy this 18-pack if your mortises are cut square: eighteen 3.5 inch brushed nickel hinges with square-corner leaves and removable pins, rated 4.7 out of 5 across 357 ratings. Rounded mortises? You want a 5/8 radius pack instead — the Design House nickel set below is the name-brand route.
What you’re getting
Eighteen 3.5 inch interior hinges in brushed (satin) nickel with square-corner leaves and removable pins. The removable pin is the practical extra: doors come off for painting, flooring and furniture-moving by driving the pin out, instead of unscrewing hinges and disturbing the mortise fit.
Six doors’ worth per pack, at a 4.7 average.

The good and the not-so-good
- Square corners for square mortises — the fit most packs ignore.
- Removable pins: doors lift off for painting without unscrewing a thing.
- Six doors per pack in the soft silver finish that suits most interiors.
- 4.7 average across 357 ratings — a niche part with a happy crowd.
Worth knowing before you buy
- Square leaves in radius mortises rock on the corners — check your mortises first.
- 357 ratings is a smaller base than the big radius packs carry.
Who they’re for — and who should skip them
Anyone whose mortises are square-cut: many older doors, many custom and high-end factory doors. Check before you order anything — pull one hinge and look at the mortise corners. If they’re rounded, you want the 5/8 radius packs instead.
More doors in nickel? The 42-pack brushed nickel set is the same hardware idea at renovation scale — we cover it in our 42-pack review.
Fitting them
- Confirm the mortise corners are square before opening the pack — a square leaf must match a square mortise exactly.
- Swap one hinge at a time with the door hanging.
- Use the removable pin to take doors off entirely when you’re painting: it’s what it’s for.

Questions people ask
Why square corners?
Some doors are mortised square. The hinge corner must match the mortise corner or the hinge won’t seat properly.
Can I remove the pin?
Yes — the pin is removable, so doors lift off without unscrewing the hinges.
Brushed nickel vs satin nickel — different?
In practice these listings use the terms for the same soft silver finish family.
The bottom line
The niche hinge that a lot of houses actually need and most packs ignore. If your mortises are square, this is your pack — and the removable pin will thank you at painting time.
