Salice Series CU 3 Cam Soft-Close Silentia 9/16" Overlay Face-Frame Hinges Nickel, 106° Screw-On - CUP36D9R

Salice Series CU Soft-Close Hinge For Face Frames

Salice Series CU Soft-Close Hinge delivers a concealed face frame solution that combines soft closing with precise adjustment, so cabinet doors shut in a controlled way and line up cleanly across a run. This hinge is part of the Salice Silentia line, which uses an integrated decelerating mechanism on the hinge to slow the door near the close, helping reduce impact on the cabinet. The hinge provides a 9/16 inch overlay on face-frame cabinets, which sets the door position for that overlay layout. A 106 degree opening angle lets doors swing wide enough for everyday cabinet access while still controlling movement at the end of travel. The hinge is manufactured from nickel plated steel, giving the hinge a concealed look with a nickel finish once mounted in the cabinet.

Key Salice Silentia Features For Cabinet Work

• Three cam adjustment on this hinge allows fine-tuning of door position, helping align gaps and reveals after installation.
• The integrated soft close mechanism on the hinge controls closing speed, helping reduce slamming against the cabinet frame.
• An activation switch on the front of the hinge lets the soft close mechanism be deactivated, giving flexibility where a lighter closing action is preferred.
• A 106 degree opening angle provides a wide door swing, supporting comfortable access to cabinet interiors in typical face-frame layouts.
• The 11 mm, or 7/16 inch, cup depth is consistent across the hinge line, simplifying door cup drilling in production or shop settings.
• Possible drilling distance on the door from 2.5 mm to 6.0 mm, or 3/32 inch to 1/4 inch, offers a usable range for positioning the hinge cup relative to the door edge.

Hinge Mounting, Cup Depth, And Drilling Range

This Salice America hinge uses a screw-on mounting style, meaning the hinge fastens to the cabinet and door with screws, giving a straightforward mechanical attachment to the face frame and door. The 11 mm, or 7/16 inch, cup depth is common to all hinges in this line, so the same boring depth works across doors built around this series. A possible drilling distance on the door between 2.5 mm and 6.0 mm, or 3/32 inch to 1/4 inch, defines the set-back of the hinge cup from the edge of the door and supports typical layouts for this hinge type. Together, these details let installers work within familiar drilling patterns and overlay expectations for a 9/16 inch overlay concealed hinge.

Using This 9/16 Overlay Silentia Hinge In Practice

Where This 9/16 Overlay Face Frame Hinge Fits

This hinge is classified as a concealed cabinet hinge in the Salice Series CU Silentia range, so it is designed to sit inside the cabinet and behind the door while controlling motion. As a 9/16 inch overlay face-frame hinge, it is suited for face-frame cabinet layouts where that specific overlay is required. The hinge belongs to the concealed face frame hinges category, meaning it is intended for cabinetry that uses a face frame structure rather than frameless construction. With a 106 degree opening capability, the hinge supports doors that need to open past 90 degrees in daily use, helping access interior storage in kitchen, bath, or utility cabinetry built on face frames. The nickel plated steel finish ties in visually with other nickel toned cabinet components when the hinge is partially visible during door movement.

Why 3 Cam Adjustment And Soft Close Matter

The three cam adjustment built into this hinge provides separate adjustment points that affect door position, letting installers shift the door within the hinge geometry after the screw-on mounting is complete. This adjustability helps refine vertical and horizontal alignment and in-out positioning, which is important when multiple doors must share consistent reveals and overlays on a face-frame run. The integrated soft close mechanism on the hinge uses a decelerating action near the close, so the door slows before contacting the cabinet structure, which can reduce wear on door edges and face frames over time. Because the soft close mechanism can be deactivated by an activation switch clearly visible on the front of the unit, installers can change the closing behavior at the hinge without removing it from the cabinet, which aids in fine-tuning how a door feels when closing. The consistent 11 mm, or 7/16 inch, cup depth across this hinge line supports repeatable boring operations, which is useful when multiple doors in a job are machined using the same settings. The 2.5 mm to 6.0 mm, or 3/32 inch to 1/4 inch, possible drilling distance window adds flexibility in positioning the hinge cup, helping match the hinge geometry to the required 9/16 inch overlay on a face-frame cabinet. Because this hinge is made from nickel plated steel, it provides a metal construction with a nickel finish that coordinates with other nickel finished concealed hinges in the same project.
