A horizontally adjustable hinge is disclosed. The hinge comprises a base member having a slot and a channel generally perpendicular to the slot, an adjustment nut disposed in the channel, the adjustment nut having a generally circumferential recess and a threaded axial bore, the adjustment nut being rotationally fixed within the channel, a screw threadably engaged in the threaded axial bore and axially fixed relative to the base member and a leaf for insertion into the slot. The leaf has a slot dimensioned to receive the circumferential recess, wherein rotation of the screw moves the adjustment nut axially in the channel, thereby moving the leaf in the slot.

What is claimed is: 1. An assembly comprising: a base member having an opening and a base slot extending in an inward direction from the opening, the base slot adapted to receive insertion of a leaf therein such that the leaf extends from outside the base member through the opening and into the base slot in the inward direction; an adjustment nut positioned at least partially within the base slot, the adjustment nut having a threaded axial bore, wherein the adjustment nut is adapted to engage the leaf when the leaf is received in the base slot; and a screw extending generally perpendicular to the inward direction of the base slot and threadably engaged in the threaded axial bore, wherein rotation of the screw moves the adjustment nut axially along an axis generally perpendicular to the inward direction of the base slot, and wherein movement of the adjustment nut is adapted to move the leaf within the base slot. 2. The assembly of claim 1, further comprising the leaf, wherein the leaf is received in the base slot and the adjustment nut engages the leaf, and wherein movement of the adjustment nut moves the leaf within the base slot. 3. The assembly of claim 2, wherein the leaf comprises a leaf slot, and wherein at least a portion of the adjustment nut is received in the leaf slot when the leaf is received in the base slot. 4. The assembly of claim 3, wherein the adjustment nut has a generally circumferential recess, and wherein the recess is received in the leaf slot when the leaf is received in the base slot. 5. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the adjustment nut has a generally circumferential recess, and wherein the recess is adapted to receive a portion of the leaf when the leaf is received in the base slot. 6. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the base further comprises a channel generally perpendicular to the inward direction of the base slot, and wherein the adjustment nut is disposed in the channel. 7. The assembly of claim 6, wherein the channel and the adjustment nut have engaging surfaces cooperatively shaped to prevent the rotation of the adjustment nut within the channel. 8. The assembly of claim 7, wherein the channel and a portion of the adjustment nut are generally square to form the cooperatively shaped engaging surfaces. 9. An assembly comprising: a base member having a base slot adapted to receive a leaf therein; an adjustment nut positioned at least partially within the base slot, the adjustment nut having a recess and threaded axial bore, wherein the recess of the adjustment nut is adapted to engage the leaf when the leaf is received in the base slot such that a portion of the leaf is received in the recess; and a screw extending threadably engaged in the threaded axial bore, wherein rotation of the screw moves the adjustment nut, and wherein movement of the adjustment nut is adapted to move the leaf within the base slot. 10. The assembly of claim 9, further comprising the leaf, wherein the leaf is received in the base slot and a portion of the leaf is received in the recess of the adjustment nut, and wherein movement of the adjustment nut moves the leaf within the base slot. 11. The assembly of claim 10, wherein the leaf comprises a leaf slot, and wherein the recess of the adjustment nut is received in the leaf slot when the leaf is received in the base slot. 12. The assembly of claim 9, wherein the recess of the adjustment nut is a generally circumferential recess. 13. The assembly of claim 9, wherein the recess of the adjustment nut extends around an entire periphery of the adjustment nut. 14. The assembly of claim 9, wherein rotation of the screw moves the adjustment nut along an axis generally perpendicular to the base slot. 15. The assembly of claim 9, wherein the base further comprises a channel generally perpendicular to the base slot, and wherein the adjustment nut is disposed in the channel. 16. The assembly of claim 15, wherein the channel and the adjustment nut have engaging surfaces cooperatively shaped to prevent the rotation of the adjustment nut within the channel. 17. The assembly of claim 16, wherein the channel and a portion of the adjustment nut are generally square to form the cooperatively shaped engaging surfaces. 18. A hinge assembly comprising: a base member having a base slot therein; a first leaf having a first portion inserted into the base slot and a second portion located external to the base member; a second leaf pivotably connected to the second portion of the first leaf to form a hinge, the hinge having a pivot axis located external to the base member; an adjustment nut positioned at least partially within the base slot, the adjustment nut having a threaded axial bore, wherein the adjustment nut engages the first leaf when the first leaf is inserted into the base slot; and a screw extending generally perpendicular to the pivot axis of the hinge, the screw being threadably engaged in the threaded axial bore, wherein rotation of the screw moves the adjustment nut axially along an axis generally perpendicular to the pivot axis of the hinge, thereby moving the leaf within the base slot. 19. The hinge assembly of claim 18, wherein the first leaf comprises a leaf slot, and wherein at least a portion of the adjustment nut is received in the leaf slot when the first leaf is received in the base slot. 20. The hinge assembly of claim 19, wherein the adjustment nut has a generally circumferential recess, and wherein the recess is received in the leaf slot when the first leaf is received in the base slot. 21. The hinge assembly of claim 18, wherein the adjustment nut has a generally circumferential recess, and wherein the recess receives a portion of the first leaf when the first leaf is received in the base slot. 22. The hinge assembly of claim 18, wherein the base further comprises a channel generally perpendicular to the pivot axis of the hinge, and wherein the adjustment nut is disposed in the channel. 23. The hinge assembly of claim 22, wherein the channel and the adjustment nut have engaging surfaces cooperatively shaped to prevent the rotation of the adjustment nut within the channel. 24. The hinge assembly of claim 23, wherein the channel and a portion of the adjustment nut are generally square to form the cooperatively shaped engaging surfaces.
