Nickel Concealed Hinge for Full Overlay Face-Frame and Frameless Cabinets

The Grass Nexis is a self-close concealed hinge for full overlay doors on both face-frame and frameless cabinets, finished in nickel and mounted with a direct screw-on connection.

Key Features

• Self-close spring draws the door shut over the final degrees of travel without a damper.
• Full overlay straight arm positions the door to cover nearly the entire cabinet side, leaving a narrow reveal.
• 110 degree opening delivers the standard swing for everyday cabinet access.
• Screw-on mounting fastens the hinge arm to a base plate with screws for a solid, fixed connection.
• 42mm boring pattern is the Grass-specific hole spacing to confirm before ordering for replacements or mixed installs.
• Nickel finish on steel construction suits frameless and face-frame interiors.

Full Overlay Doors, Spring Closed

This hinge is built for full overlay doors: the door rides on a straight arm and covers nearly the whole cabinet side when closed, with only a narrow reveal at the edge. The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door and the arm connects to a base plate on the cabinet, which is ordered separately. The Nexis is Grass's value-oriented concealed line, and the screw-on arm engagement means the connection is locked down with screws rather than a tool-free clip, which suits shops and contractors who prefer a mechanically fixed joint. The self-close spring pulls the door shut from a few degrees open. This is a spring pull, not a soft-close damper, so the door closes firmly rather than settling quietly.

Steel, Nickel, and the Grass Boring Pattern

The hinge body is steel with a nickel finish, a clean look that reads well on frameless interior panels and face-frame stiles alike. One point to confirm before specifying for replacements or multi-brand installs: the Nexis uses a 42mm boring pattern rather than the 45mm spacing found on most other concealed hinges. That measurement is Grass-specific, so existing holes bored for another brand's pattern may not align. New construction or a full Grass install runs straight through without issue.

Where This Hinge Works

The Nexis screw-on suits cabinet shops running production work on frameless boxes, contractors setting face-frame kitchens, and remodelers replacing hinges within an existing Grass installation. The screw-on arm is the right call when a tool-free clip is not required and a locked-down mechanical connection is preferred. For full overlay doors that need a cushioned, quiet close instead of a spring pull, a soft-close version of the Nexis is the better choice. For doors thicker than 22mm, a thick-door hinge is the correct fit.
