Nickel Concealed Hinge With 165-Degree Swing for 1/2-Inch Overlay Doors

This Salice Series 200 Rapido hinge brings a 165-degree opening arc to 1/2-inch overlay doors on frameless and face-frame cabinets, with a self-close spring and expanding dowel mounting, in a nickel finish.

Key Features

• 165-degree opening swings the door nearly flat against the cabinet for wide, unobstructed access.
• Self-close spring pulls the door shut automatically over the final degrees of travel.
• 1/2-inch overlay, half crank arm positions the door as a partial overlay, the standard geometry for two doors sharing a center partition.
• Expanding dowel mount anchors the hinge in the door's bored dowel holes for a screw-free cup attachment.
• Works on frameless and face-frame cabinets when paired with the appropriate Salice base plate, sold separately.
• Nickel finish coordinates with brushed and satin metal hardware across the cabinet run.

Where a 165-Degree Swing Changes the Job

Most concealed hinges top out at 110 degrees, which suits everyday cabinet use. This hinge reaches 165 degrees, letting the door fold back nearly parallel to the cabinet side. That extra travel matters in tight kitchens where a door swinging into a walkway is a daily frustration, in accessible design where a door must clear wide for unobstructed reach, and in utility spaces where full interior access is the priority. The half-crank arm sets the door at a 1/2-inch partial overlay, including the classic shared-partition setup where two doors meet on a single center stile. The 35mm cup bores into the door back, and the hinge connects to a Salice base plate mounted to the cabinet, which is a separate purchase matched to your cabinet construction.

Steel Build in a Nickel Finish

The hinge body is steel with a nickel finish. Nickel reads as a warm neutral in the satin and brushed metal family, making it an easy coordinate for bin pulls, bar handles, or other nickel-finish hardware already on the job. The expanding dowel cup attachment skips the cup screws: the dowels press into pre-bored holes in the door, which is a common CNC and production-shop workflow where screw-free door prep keeps the line moving. Side adjustment of up to 4.5mm in and 1.5mm out, plus 2mm of height adjustment in either direction, gives enough range to bring doors on a shared partition to an even reveal after installation.

The Right Fit for This Hinge

This hinge suits cabinet shops, designers, and remodelers specifying wide-opening doors on standard frameless or face-frame boxes, where the partial-overlay look is the design call. It is a strong pick for accessible kitchens and bath vanities where doors need to swing fully clear, for corner-adjacent cabinets where a standard 110-degree swing would interrupt traffic, and for production environments that run dowelled door prep. Expanding dowel mounting requires the matching cup bore pattern in the door; if your shop runs screw-on cup attachment instead, the screw-mount version of this series is the one to order. For a cushioned, damped close rather than a spring pull, the Silentia+ soft-close version of this series handles that requirement.

Wide Swing, Clean Reveal, Ready to Hang

Specify this hinge when a 1/2-inch overlay door needs to swing nearly flat, stay consistent with the nickel hardware on the job, and close on its own every time.
