Nickel Thick Door Hinge for Full Overlay Doors Up to 36mm

The Grass Tiomos Impresso is a concealed soft-close hinge engineered for thick doors, fitting both face-frame and frameless cabinets with full overlay geometry and toolless snap-on mounting.

Key Features

• Thick door capacity up to 36mm handles doors well beyond the standard 16 to 22mm window.
• Integrated soft-close damps the door through the final arc of closing so it settles quietly.
• 95 degree opening angle is the correct geometry that lets a thick door swing clear without binding against the cabinet front.
• Full overlay straight arm positions the door to cover nearly the entire cabinet side with a narrow reveal.
• Toolless snap-on mounting clips the hinge to its base plate without tools for fast, repeatable hanging.
• Three-way adjustment moves the door up to 3mm in height, side, and depth after mounting.

Built for Doors That Standard Hinges Cannot Handle

Standard concealed hinges are sized for doors between 16 and 22mm thick. Push beyond that range and the cup geometry no longer seats correctly, the arm travel changes, and the door can bind or fail to clear the cabinet front. The Tiomos Impresso is built from the ground up for thick-door work, with a cup depth and arm geometry calibrated for material up to 36mm. The 95 degree opening is not a restriction — it is the angle that gives a thick door the clearance it needs to swing without collision. The 35mm cup bores into the door in the usual way, and the hinge connects to a Grass base plate mounted separately to the cabinet. That plate is a brand-specific Grass component; plates from other manufacturers will not connect to this hinge.

Steel Construction in a Nickel Finish

The hinge body is steel with a nickel finish. The snap-on Tiomos arm engagement is what speeds production runs: no screwdriver needed at the arm-to-plate connection, so doors go on and come off quickly. After hanging, the three-way adjustment gives 3mm of travel in each direction, enough to bring a thick, heavy door into a clean, even reveal across a cabinet run. Soft-close is integrated into the hinge body, so no separate damper cartridge is needed and the mechanism stays protected inside the hinge.

Where This Hinge Earns Its Place

Specify this hinge on furniture-grade cabinetry, built-ins, and custom projects where thicker door stock is part of the design. It suits both frameless box construction and face-frame cabinets, so it works across contemporary and traditional builds in the same shop run. Cabinet makers working with slab doors in solid wood or thick MDF, and contractors sourcing hardware for a high-specification renovation, will find the Tiomos Impresso fits the application where a standard-depth hinge simply cannot. Note that the boring pattern on Grass Tiomos hinges is 42/45mm rather than the 45mm-only pattern common to other brands, so confirm your boring setup before drilling a production run.

Common Questions

Thick Doors, Clean Reveals, Quiet Close

When the design calls for heavier door stock on face-frame or frameless cabinetry, the Tiomos Impresso delivers the geometry, damping, and adjustment to hang those doors correctly and keep them looking right.
