Grass Nexis Concealed Hinge for Tight-Clearance Full Overlay Doors

The Grass Nexis self-close hinge mounts full overlay doors on frameless cabinets with a 95 degree opening angle engineered for wall-adjacent and space-constrained installations.

Key Features

• 95 degree opening angle keeps the door from swinging into a wall, adjacent cabinet, or appliance in tight quarters.
• Full overlay straight arm positions the door to cover nearly the entire cabinet side, leaving a narrow reveal.
• Self-close spring pulls the door shut automatically over the last few degrees of travel.
• Screw-on mounting fastens the hinge arm directly to the base plate with screws for a solid, locked connection.
• Grass Nexis platform delivers reliable concealed performance at a value-oriented price point.
• Steel construction with a Nickel finish holds up to everyday cabinet use.

Built for Doors That Cannot Swing Wide

The 95 degree opening on this hinge is intentional geometry, not a constraint. Where a standard 110 degree hinge would send a door into a refrigerator panel, a wall corner, or the adjacent cabinet in a run, this hinge stops the swing at the right point. It is the correct choice for end-of-run cabinets, cabinets flanking appliances, and any frameless box where swing clearance is limited by the room layout. The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door at a 13.2mm depth, and the hinge arm connects to a base plate on the cabinet side, which is sold separately. The Nexis plate and hinge are Grass-specific, so pair them with Grass-compatible base plates rather than plates from another brand.

Steel Build and a Screw-On Connection

Nexis hinges are plated steel in a Nickel finish. The screw-on mount locks the arm to the plate mechanically, which suits installers who prefer a fixed connection over a tool-free clip. The 48mm boring pattern governs hole placement during door prep, so confirm the layout matches your boring setup before running a batch. Cup diameter is 35mm at 13.2mm deep, which fits standard frameless doors in the 16 to 22mm thickness range.

Where This Hinge Fits the Job

This hinge belongs on frameless cabinets specifically, and it earns its place in layouts where opening angle is the selection driver rather than an afterthought. Cabinet shops doing production runs on kitchen end panels, wall flanks, or appliance-adjacent uppers will reach for this hinge when the room demands controlled swing. It is also a practical choice for designers specifying frameless kitchens in galley or U-shaped configurations, where doors at the turns need a managed opening arc. This is a self-close hinge: the spring draws the door closed, but the close is not cushioned. For a damped, quiet settle, the soft-close version of this series is the right alternative.

The Right Hinge for the Right Corner
