A cabinet with a door is provided with an improved hinge. The hinge includes a door leaf mounted within the door, a cabinet leaf mounted on an exterior portion of the cabinet and intermediate leaf extending between the door leaf and the cabinet leaf. The intermediate leaf includes a curved arm having one end connected to the door leaf by a first end and an opposite end connected to the cabinet leaf by a second pin. The first and second pins define pivot points for the hinge, which allow the door to open approximately 270° from the closed position. In a door with a seal, the order of hinge leaf operation is controlled to minimize damage and wear to the seal.
