Salice Excentra S 2 Cam Self-Close 5/8" Overlay Face-Frame Hinges Nickel, 106° Dowel - CSR3599

Salice Excentra Hinge For 5/8 Inch Overlay Doors

Salice Excentra S face frame hinge is a concealed cabinet hinge designed for 5/8 inch overlay face-frame applications, so doors cover the frame correctly while staying hidden from view. This hinge provides a 106 degree opening angle, giving doors a wide, functional swing range that supports comfortable cabinet access in everyday use. The hinge is part of the Salice Series S line, so it is built around a 2-cam adjustable mechanism that lets installers dial in precise door alignment after mounting. All hinges in this line are self-closing, so the spring action pulls doors shut at the end of travel, helping doors reach a consistent closed position. The CSR3599 model uses a dowel mounting style, matching shop workflows that rely on pre-drilled cup holes and dowel insertion.

Key Working Details Of This Salice CSR3599 Hinge

• The 2-cam adjustable hinge design delivers cam depth adjustment from plus 2.8 mm to minus 0.5 mm, which lets installers fine-tune how deeply the door sits relative to the cabinet face to correct small layout variations.
• Cam lateral adjustment from plus 3.0 mm to minus 2 mm allows side-to-side door movement after installation, so gaps can be balanced between doors and along face frames without re-drilling hinge holes.
• Slotted screw hole height adjustment of plus or minus 2 mm provides vertical tuning at the mounting point, so door reveals at top and bottom can be set accurately to match adjacent doors and cabinet lines.
• A cup depth of only 11 mm allows this hinge to be used on most door styles, giving shops flexibility when working with thinner doors or existing cup bores while still using a concealed face frame hinge.
• The hinge cup edge drilling distance of 2.5 mm defines the setback from the door edge, guiding drilling layouts so repeated doors can be processed consistently on drilling equipment or templates.
• Excentra hinges with overlays of 1/2 inch and greater have zero door protrusion, which lets doors open past the frame line without projecting into the cabinet opening, supporting full access in many cabinet layouts.

Face Frame Mounting And Door Alignment Details

This Salice concealed cabinet hinge is designed as a face-frame hinge, so it works with cabinets built with a front frame rather than frameless sides. The hinge is specified for 5/8 inch overlay applications, meaning the door is sized to overlap the frame by that amount so reveals stay consistent. The dowel-style cup simplifies positioning in 35 mm bores, because once holes and edge distance follow the 2.5 mm cup edge drilling distance, the hinge sits accurately on the door. Combined with the 2-cam depth and lateral adjustments plus the slotted height adjustment, this setup gives installers multiple ways to correct minor drilling tolerances and achieve even gaps.

Using Salice Series S Hinges In Cabinet Projects

Where This 5/8 Inch Overlay Hinge Performs Best

This Salice Excentra S face frame hinge fits cabinet doors designed for overlays of 1/2 inch and greater, so it aligns well with many kitchen or bath face-frame layouts that rely on overlapping doors. The hinge is designed to work with cabinet doors up to 3/4 inch thick, which covers a common range of door thicknesses used in residential and commercial cabinetry. Because the cup depth is only 11 mm, it suits many door constructions without requiring deeper boring, which can help when working with thinner panels or routed profiles near the cup area. Excentra hinges with overlays of 1/2 inch and greater provide zero door protrusion, so when doors open, they do not extend into the cabinet opening plane, helping clearance when drawers or roll-outs are placed inside the cabinet.

Adjustment Range That Supports Repeatable Results

The 2-cam adjustable hinge mechanism is central to how this Salice CSR3599 hinge supports precise alignment during installation. Cam depth adjustment from plus 2.8 mm to minus 0.5 mm changes how far the door sits from the cabinet face, which is useful when face frames are not perfectly flush or when doors need slight in-or-out tuning to align across a run. Cam lateral adjustment from plus 3.0 mm to minus 2 mm shifts the door side-to-side after the hinge is fixed, so fine adjustments can correct tight or wide gaps without resetting the drilling pattern. The slotted screw hole height adjustment of plus or minus 2 mm lets installers nudge doors up or down to line up rail joints or match adjacent fronts. All hinges are self-closing design, so once alignment is set, the built-in closing action pulls doors to a consistent resting point, supporting uniform reveals from door to door. The hinge is designed to work with Salice Type U soft-close devices, so damping components can be paired with this hinge line when a soft-closing motion is desired in the overall cabinet system.
