Salice Series CU 3 Cam Soft-Close Silentia 1-3/8" Overlay Face-Frame Hinges Nickel, 106° Dowel - CUR3CD9R

Salice Series CU Silentia Hinge For Face Frames

Salice Series CU Silentia hinge gives you a concealed cabinet hinge for 1-3/8 inch overlay face-frame doors, so you can keep the hardware hidden while setting a consistent reveal across the run. This hinge is part of Salice Americas Silentia line, which is designed for soft-closing cabinet doors so doors decelerate as they close and settle against the frame. The hinge opens to 106 degrees, providing wide access into the cabinet while still controlling the door swing in tight layouts. An 11 mm cup depth applies to all hinges in this line, so the cup bore stays shallow enough for standard cabinet door construction while still seating the mechanism securely. The hinge is made from nickel plated steel, which provides a hard working steel body with a nickel finish suited to typical cabinet environments.

Key Salice CUR3CD9R Features For Cabinet Work

• The 3 cam adjustment hinge design lets you adjust the door position using three independent cams, so you can fine-tune overlay and alignment on face-frame installations without refitting the door.
• The integrated soft close mechanism is built directly into the hinge, so the decelerating action happens at the hinge and controls closing speed right at the pivot point.
• The soft closing strength can be changed by using the hinge design when a different soft closing strength is desired, so you can match the closing action to door size and application.
• The soft close feature can be deactivated with the activation switch clearly visible on the front of the unit, so you can quickly turn soft closing off on a specific door while leaving others active.
• The 11 mm cup depth shared by all hinges in the line keeps the bore depth consistent, so drilling setups stay the same across multiple doors in a project.
• The drilling distance on the door ranges from 2.5 mm to 6.0 mm, so you can select a boring position within that band to achieve the overlay and reveal needed for your face-frame layout.

Face-Frame Mounting And Overlay Adjustment Details

This 1-3/8 inch overlay face-frame hinge is designed for concealed mounting on face-frame cabinets, so the hinge sits on the frame side while the cup fits into the door. The hinge uses a dowel style cup, so the cup bores are prepared to receive dowels that locate the hinge reliably in the door. With a possible drilling distance on the door from 2.5 mm to 6.0 mm, you gain flexibility in positioning the hinge cup relative to the door edge and dialing in your overlay on the frame. The 3 cam adjustment mechanism lets you refine this fit after drilling, giving you room to correct minor layout variations without re-boring. The 106 degree opening angle sets the working swing, which helps you plan interior clearances and door interactions with adjacent cabinets.

Using This Salice Soft Close Hinge In Cabinet Runs

Where This 1-3/8 Inch Overlay Hinge Fits Best

This Salice Series CU 1-3/8 inch overlay hinge is built for face-frame cabinet doors where a concealed hinge and defined overlay are required, so it suits kitchens, baths, and built-ins using a face-frame construction method. As a concealed cabinet hinge, it keeps hardware hidden from the front while allowing the door to clear the face frame during opening. The 106 degree opening angle supports typical cabinet access, so users can reach into the cabinet without the door needing to swing excessively wide. Because the drilling distance on the door can be set between 2.5 mm and 6.0 mm, the hinge adapts to different overlay preferences within that range, and that helps align doors across banks of cabinets or multi-door sections. The dowel style cup design stabilizes the hinge location in the door, which supports consistent placement across multiple doors.

How 3 Cam Adjustment And Soft Close Improve Results

The 3 cam adjustment cabinet hinge construction provides three separate cams for adjusting the door, so the installer can shift door position in small, controlled increments instead of relying on elongated screw holes. This makes it easier to bring multiple doors into line on a long face-frame run and helps reduce rework when framings are slightly off. The adjustable soft close hinge mechanism is integrated directly into the hinge body, so each door benefits from a controlled decelerating close that reduces slamming against the face frame. When a different soft closing strength is desired, this hinge line is designed to accommodate that need, which helps tailor door motion to heavier or lighter doors. The activation switch on the front of the unit allows the integrated soft close to be deactivated on a given hinge, so doors in corner positions or special situations can operate without soft closing while standard doors retain the feature. With a consistent 11 mm cup depth, drilling jigs and CNC programs can stay uniform across all doors using this hinge series, streamlining production work and helping maintain repeatable results. The nickel plated steel construction provides a robust hinge body with a nickel finish that matches typical concealed hinge hardware ranges in cabinet shops.
