Thick Door Hinge For Full Overlay Face-Frame and Frameless Cabinets

This Salice Series 200 thick door hinge is built specifically for doors heavier and deeper than a standard concealed hinge can accommodate, delivering full overlay positioning and self-close function on both face-frame and frameless cabinets. It installs via dowel mount and carries a nickel finish on steel construction.

Key Features

• Thick door geometry provides the deeper cup and modified arm clearance that standard 35mm hinges cannot offer for oversized doors.
• Full overlay straight arm positions the door to cover nearly the entire cabinet side, leaving only a narrow reveal.
• Self-close spring pulls the door shut over the last few degrees of travel so it does not stand open.
• Dowel mount presses pre-attached dowels into bored holes in the door for a fast, screw-free cup installation suited to CNC and production workflows.
• 94 degree opening angle is the correct engineered swing for thick doors, allowing full clearance without the door contacting the cabinet front.
• Three-way adjustment provides height and side correction after hanging so doors line up evenly across a run.

Where Thick Doors Need a Different Hinge

Standard concealed hinges are designed for doors in the 16 to 22mm range. When a door exceeds that window, the cup geometry and arm clearances of a standard hinge no longer fit correctly. This hinge uses a 35mm cup with an 11mm cup depth and arm geometry recalculated for the extra door mass, so the door seats and swings the way it should. The 94 degree opening is intentional: it is the angle at which a thick door clears the cabinet front cleanly without binding. This hinge suits both frameless boxes and face-frame cabinets, pairing with a Salice base plate ordered separately.

Steel Build in a Nickel Finish

The hinge body is steel with a nickel finish. The 45mm boring pattern on the door side is the production-standard spacing, and the dowel mount skips the cup screws entirely, pressing directly into pre-bored dowel holes. That keeps the door-side installation fast and repeatable on a CNC line. Height adjustment of plus or minus 2mm and side adjustment of plus 4.5mm and minus 1.5mm give enough range to bring a full run of thick doors to a consistent reveal without re-hanging.

Who Reaches for This Hinge

Cabinet shops producing raised-panel, solid-wood, or specialty thick-door fronts will find this hinge fits where standard hardware simply does not. It is also a reliable choice for remodelers replacing worn hinges on existing thick-door installations where the bore pattern needs to match. Because the plate is a separate Salice-specific purchase, plan for the matching Salice base plate alongside this hinge. For doors in the standard 16 to 22mm range, a standard Series 200 hinge is the right call instead.
