Grass Nexis Pie-Cut Corner Hinge For Corner Cabinets

Grass Nexis pie-cut corner hinge is a concealed cabinet hinge designed for corner cabinets and lazy susan application, so it handles the hinged joint between the two pie-cut doors where smooth movement is critical. This Nexis self-close overlay hinge is part of the Grass Nexis 21 hinge family, giving a consistent hardware platform across related cabinet doors. The hinge provides a 170 degree opening when used in conjunction with the Nexis 170 degree hinges, which allows wide door swing for better interior access. It is a frameless pie-cut corner hinge in nickel finish, so it works within frameless cabinet construction while presenting a uniform metal look at the hardware interface. As a concealed long arm European hinge, it keeps the hardware hidden when the doors are closed, leaving a clean cabinet face in kitchen or shop installations.

Key Grass Nexis Features That Support Corner Work

• The hinge is designed to be used in corner cabients and lazy susan application, so it specifically addresses the geometry and movement these cabinets require during daily use and adjustment.
• Grass pie-cut hinges are used in conjuction with the Nexis 170 degree hinges, creating a coordinated movement system where the corner hinge and adjacent door hinges work together for consistent door action.
• The hinge is available in self-closing only, so the built-in self-close function pulls the doors shut for a controlled close that helps maintain alignment over repeated cycles.
• Nexis hinges are designed to work with Grass mounting plates, so installers using Grass mounting plates can keep a single mounting standard across a run of cabinets.
• The hinge is classified under concealed cabinet hinges and European pie cut corner hinge, which means it follows the European concealed long arm format many cabinet shops already bore and set up for production.

Installation And Adjustment Details For Nexis 21 Hinge

The Nexis 21 hinge pie cut corner dowel version uses a doweled cup fastening design, so the hinge cup locates in pre-bored dowel holes for repeatable positioning in production or shop jigs. A boring pattern of 45 mm and 48 mm is specified, guiding the hinge cup hole layout so the arm geometry lines up with the mounting plate on the cabinet side. Side-to-side adjustment of plus 1 mm to minus 3 mm allows the installer to tweak the gap between the pie-cut doors for proper reveal and swing. Height adjustment of plus 2 mm to minus 2 mm lets the door position be shifted vertically, helping align the door edges with adjacent fronts or shelves. Depth adjustment of plus 3 mm to minus 1 mm fine-tunes how far the door sits relative to the cabinet, so the overlay and closing pressure suit the cabinet line.

Using This Pie-Cut Corner Hinge In Cabinet Runs

Where The Grass Nexis Hinge Fits Best

This NEXIS 21 hinge pie cut corner dowel is targeted at corner cabients that use pie-cut doors, so it fits the hinged joint where two doors are attached to each other instead of to a face frame. In lazy susan application, the hinge allows the connected doors to follow the rotating shelves while still clearing adjacent cabinets, because the motion is designed around corner cabinet geometry. The frameless overlay format supports frameless cabinet construction, aligning with side-mounted Grass mounting plates on the cabinet walls. By working in conjunction with the Nexis 170 degree hinges, this corner hinge becomes part of a matched set, where the straight door hinges and the pie-cut corner hinge share movement characteristics and adjustment ranges.

Why Nexis Adjustments Support Repeatable Results

The specified side-to-side adjustment of plus 1 mm to minus 3 mm gives room to correct small drilling or placement variances, which is important when aligning two interconnected pie-cut doors along their vertical joint. Height adjustment of plus 2 mm to minus 2 mm allows the install to compensate for cabinet floor or shelf variations, so the door edges track evenly across the full swing. Depth adjustment of plus 3 mm to minus 1 mm helps tune the overlay and closing feel, improving how the self-closing action pulls the doors into contact with the cabinet. The doweled cup fastening design speeds repeat work because once the 45 mm and 48 mm boring pattern is set up, each additional door can be machined and hinged to the same layout. Working with Grass mounting plates keeps the interface on the cabinet side consistent, which simplifies swapping or re-adjusting hinges during later service or layout changes.
