Dowel-Mount Concealed Hinge for Full Overlay Doors

This Grass Tiomos soft-close hinge is built for CNC and production environments, seating press-in dowels directly into the door for a fast, screw-free cup attachment on full overlay doors across frameless and face-frame cabinets.

Key Features

• Dowel mounting presses pre-attached dowels into bored holes in the door, skipping cup screws entirely for faster production installs.
• Integrated soft-close slows the door through the final degrees of travel so it settles quietly without slamming.
• Full overlay straight arm positions the door to cover nearly the entire cabinet side, leaving a narrow reveal.
• 110 degree opening angle delivers standard everyday cabinet access.
• Three-way adjustment (height, depth, and side, each plus or minus a few millimeters) brings doors into a clean, even reveal after hanging.
• Fits doors up to 24mm thick, covering standard stock and slightly heavier cabinet fronts in the same hinge.

Built Around CNC and Production Workflows

The dowel mount is the detail that separates this hinge from a screw-cup version. Instead of threading screws into the cup recess, the hinge's pre-attached dowels press straight into matching bored holes in the door. On a CNC-bored run, that means no fastener step at the cup, fewer tool changes, and a repeatable register that holds the same position door after door. The 35mm cup seats in the door, and the hinge arm connects to a Grass base plate mounted to the cabinet side, ordered separately.

Tiomos Build and Finish

Steel construction with a nickel finish. The Tiomos platform is Grass's premium concealed line, and the soft-close here is integrated into the hinge body rather than added on, so there is nothing extra to clip or adjust after hanging the door. The 12.6mm cup depth and 45mm boring pattern suit standard production boring on both frameless and face-frame boxes.

Where This Hinge Fits Best

Cabinet shops running CNC equipment get the most out of this hinge. The dowel attachment pays off when bored door stacks move quickly through assembly, and the three-way adjustment handles the settling and racking that shows up after installation. It suits both frameless boxes and face-frame cabinets, making it a practical single-SKU choice across a mixed production run. Pair it with the matching Grass Tiomos plates for your cabinet construction type. Plates are Grass-specific and sold separately.
