Grass Nexis Pie-Cut Hinge For Corner Cabinets

Grass Nexis pie-cut corner hinge is designed to be used in corner cabients and lazy susan aplication, so it turns connected pie-cut doors smoothly at the corner. This hinge is a self-closing overlay hinge for frameless pie-cut corner doors, which pulls the doors shut at the end of travel for a clean finished position. The Nexis pie-cut hinge is used in conjuction with the Nexis 170 degree hinges, creating a linked system where the main door uses the 170 degree hinge and the pie-cut section is carried by this hinge. As a concealed long arm hinge in nickel finish, it keeps hardware hidden while matching other Grass America concealed cabinet hinges in the run.

Key Nexis 21 Pie-Cut Corner Hinge Details

• This Grass Nexis self-closing hinge is for overlay frameless pie-cut corner doors, so it matches modern frameless cabinet construction where the doors overlay the cabinet side.
• The hinge is designed specifically for corner cabients and lazy susan aplication, so it supports rotating storage layouts that need reliable movement at the joint between two doors.
• Use of this pie-cut hinge in conjuction with Nexis 170 degree hinges links the primary door and the attached pie-cut door, allowing both to work as a unit around the corner opening.
• A nickel finish on this concealed cabinet hinge provides a consistent look with typical nickel-plated European hinges while keeping the mechanism protected inside the cabinet.
• This Nexis 21 hinge is part of the concealed cabinet hinges class, so it maintains a clean exterior door face with all working parts located on the interior side.

Nexis Dowel Cup Design And Adjustments

The Nexis 21 hinge pie cut corner dowel design uses a doweled cup fastening style, so the cup locates positively in pre-bored holes in the door for repeatable positioning. A side-to-side adjustment of plus 1 mm to minus 3 mm lets the installer fine-tune the gap between the pie-cut door and adjacent door or panel, which helps align reveals on corner cabients. Height adjustment of plus 2 mm to minus 2 mm provides vertical tuning, allowing doors to be raised or lowered slightly without reboring the cup. Depth adjustment of plus 3 mm to minus 1 mm moves the door closer or farther from the cabinet, which is useful to set overlay and avoid rubbing in lazy susan aplication.

Using This Grass Nexis Hinge In Corner Runs

Where This Pie-Cut Corner Hinge Fits Best

This Grass Nexis self-close overlay frameless pie cut corner hinge is designed to be used in corner cabients and lazy susan aplication, so it fits at the joint between two doors that form a pie-cut shape. The hinge works in conjuction with the Nexis 170 degree hinges, with the 170 degree model carrying the main corner door while this hinge carries the connecting pie-cut door section. As a European concealed long arm hinge for frameless construction, it sits inside the cabinet so the outside face stays clear for continuous door designs around the corner. Being part of the European pie cut corner hinge category, it fills the specific role needed when two doors must act as a single folding unit on rotating corner hardware.

Adjustment And Boring Details That Support Alignment

The Nexis hinge boring pattern of 45 mm and 48 mm defines the cup drilling layout in the door, so shop drilling patterns can be standardized around these two offsets for repeat runs. Side-to-side adjustment of plus 1 mm to minus 3 mm gives room to shift the pie-cut door relative to the main door, which helps dial in even reveals along the corner edge. Height Adjustment of plus 2 mm to minus 2 mm helps compensate for slight drilling variations, letting the doors be brought into line without redrilling. Depth Adjustment of plus 3 mm to minus 1 mm allows the door to be moved toward or away from the cabinet, which is important on lazy susan aplication where the door edge tracks close to adjacent fronts. Nexis hinges are designed to work with Grass mounting plates, so they tie into the same plate system already used on other Grass America concealed cabinet hinges in the installation.
