Thick Door Hinge for Half Overlay Doors Up to 36mm

The Grass Tiomos Impresso is a concealed soft-close hinge built for thick cabinet doors, handling panels up to 36mm on both face-frame and frameless cabinets at a half overlay position.

Key Features

• Thick door geometry accommodates doors up to 36mm, where a standard hinge cup would not seat correctly.
• Integrated soft-close damps the door over the final closing arc so it settles quietly without slamming.
• Half overlay, half crank arm sets the door to a partial overlay, suited to doors sharing a center partition or a partial-overlay design.
• 95 degree opening angle gives the correct swing for a thick door to clear the cabinet front without binding.
• Toolless snap-on mounting clips the arm to the base plate without a screwdriver for fast door hanging and removal.
• Three-way adjustment moves the door in height, depth, and side independently after hanging.

The Right Geometry for Heavy, Thick Doors

Standard concealed hinges are engineered for doors in the 16 to 22mm range. When a door runs thicker, the standard cup geometry places the pivot point wrong and the door collides with the cabinet front as it swings. This Tiomos Impresso is built specifically for the thick-door condition, with a cup and arm combination that keeps the hinge axis clear so the door swings freely. The 95 degree opening angle is the correct engineered swing for a thick panel: it is the arc that lets the mass and depth of the door clear the cabinet without contact, not a compromise on access.

The 35mm cup bores into the door and the arm snaps to a Grass base plate mounted on the cabinet. The plate is sold separately. Match a Grass Tiomos plate to your cabinet construction and the half overlay position.

Steel Build, Nickel Finish, Tiomos Precision

The hinge body is steel in a Nickel finish. Tiomos hardware is known for close manufacturing tolerances, and the three-way adjustment reflects that: height, depth, and side each move independently in a tight range, so two doors on a shared partition can be dialed to an even reveal without disturbing the other axes. The soft-close damper is integrated into the hinge body, not an add-on, so the damping is consistent from the first close.

Where This Hinge Belongs

Reach for this hinge any time a thick-panel door, solid hardwood construction, or a design calling for heavier slab fronts is on the job. It works on both frameless and face-frame cabinets, so it carries through a mixed project without switching hinge families. Cabinet shops building furniture-grade casework with thicker door stock, and contractors sourcing for high-end kitchen and bath installs, will find the Tiomos Impresso the cleanest solution for the thick-door condition. For doors in the standard 16 to 22mm range, a standard Tiomos hinge is the correct pick.
