Screw-On Tiomos Hinge for Overlay Doors on Face-Frame and Frameless Cabinets

This Grass Tiomos concealed hinge hangs overlay doors on face-frame or frameless cabinets with a screw-on mount and integrated soft-close, in a nickel finish.

Key Features

• Integrated soft-close slows the door through the final degrees of closing so it settles quietly without slamming.
• 110 degree opening angle delivers the standard swing for everyday cabinet access.
• Screw-on mounting fastens directly to the cabinet without requiring pre-drilled 5mm system holes.
• Straight arm, overlay geometry positions the door to cover the cabinet side with a clean, narrow reveal.
• Three-way adjustment provides up to 3mm of movement in height, depth, and side to bring doors to an even reveal.
• Works on both face-frame and frameless cabinets when paired with the appropriate Grass mounting plate, sold separately.

Where This Hinge Earns Its Place

The screw-on mount is what distinguishes this Tiomos from clip-on and tool-free variants in the family. It fastens to a Grass base plate using screws, which makes it the right call when you are working on cabinets without pre-bored 5mm system holes, or when a mechanically fixed connection is what the job calls for. The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door at a 45mm hole spacing, and the arm connects to a Grass mounting plate on the cabinet side. That plate is a separate purchase matched to your cabinet construction and overlay requirement. Because the screw-on connection does not rely on system holes, this hinge fits a wider range of existing and custom cabinet boxes than INSERTA or tool-free press-in alternatives.

Steel Construction in a Nickel Finish

The hinge is steel with a nickel finish. The Tiomos platform is Grass's premium concealed line, and the integrated soft-close mechanism is built into the hinge body rather than added as a separate damper. That keeps the installation clean and eliminates the separate step of clipping on a UniSoft adapter. The maximum door thickness of 24mm gives this hinge a slightly wider door range than the standard 16 to 22mm window, accommodating doors at the heavier end of the residential cabinet spectrum. Three-way adjustment handles the minor drift that settles into any cabinet over time, letting you bring doors back to a consistent reveal with a turn of the cam screws.

Best Fit: Shops, Contractors, and Custom Builders

This hinge suits cabinet shops and contractors working across both frameless and face-frame boxes, especially where cabinets do not carry pre-drilled system holes. It is also a practical choice on replacement jobs where the existing cabinet accepts a screw-on plate but the original hinge has worn out. The overlay geometry handles the large majority of standard residential cabinet doors. For an installation that needs tool-free plate mounting into 5mm system holes, a snap-on Tiomos variant paired with a Grass INSERTA-style plate is the more efficient path on production frameless work.
