Salice Series CU 3 Cam Soft-Close Silentia 9/16" Overlay Face-Frame Hinges Nickel, 106° Dowel - CUR36D9R

Salice Series CU Silentia Hinge For Face Frames

Salice Series CU Silentia hinge gives you a concealed cabinet hinge for face-frame construction where a 9/16 inch overlay is required, so doors sit correctly over the frame while keeping hardware hidden in everyday use. This hinge belongs to the Salice Series CU line, tying it directly to a consistent drilling pattern and motion profile across related hinges, which helps maintain uniform operation on multi-door installations. As a soft-close hinge, it uses an integrated decelerating mechanism to slow the door in the closing phase, which reduces door slam and helps protect cabinet fronts over repeated use. The hinge is part of the Concealed Cabinet Hinges class, so it is designed to disappear when the door is closed, giving a clean look on finished cabinetry. With the manufacturer part CUR36D9R, this hinge can be ordered and re-ordered reliably for matching work across projects.

Key Salice CU Hinge Details For Cabinets

• Nickel plated steel construction gives the hinge a hard-wearing surface, which supports repeated door cycles in cabinet environments where hinges see regular handling.
• Integrated soft close mechanism is built into the hinge, so the closing action is controlled directly at the hinge point for consistent deceleration on every cycle.
• Soft close mechanism can be deactivated using the clearly visible activation switch on the front of the unit, which lets you tune closing strength when door size or weight demands a different feel.
• Three cam adjustment design allows precise hinge positioning, so doors can be aligned more accurately during installation or later adjustment without changing hinge location.
• Hinge is part of the Salice Series CU Silentia range, so it shares a defined 11 mm cup depth and drilling distances that simplify layout when using multiple hinges from the same line.

Hinge Mounting And Fit For Cabinet Work

This Salice Series CU Silentia hinge uses an 11 mm, or 7/16 inch, cup depth, which determines how deep the cup hole in the door must be drilled and helps control the relationship between door thickness and hinge seating. It supports a possible drilling distance on the door from 2.5 mm to 6.0 mm, or 3/32 inch to 1/4 inch, giving flexibility to position the cup from the door edge so overlay and reveal can be dialed in during layout. The hinge offers a 106 degree opening angle, which affects how far the door swings away from the frame and influences access inside cabinets during regular use. With its dowel version construction identified in the description, this hinge is configured for dowel-style hinge cup mounting, which provides a repeatable location in doors prepared for dowels.

Using This Concealed Soft-Close Hinge On Projects

Where This Face Frame Hinge Performs Best

The 9/16 inch overlay designation means this hinge is suited to situations where the door needs to overlap the face frame by that amount, so the frame edge remains visible while still giving solid coverage of the opening. In a face-frame cabinet layout, this overlay dimension helps installers work from a clear starting point when planning door sizes across a run of cabinets. The 106 degree opening angle is useful on cabinets where a wider swing than 90 degrees is helpful for reaching interior space, while still controlling how far the door projects into the room. Because the hinge is part of the Concealed Cabinet Hinges category, it keeps the hinge hardware out of sight when the door is closed, which supports clean lines on both residential and commercial cabinetry built with face frames.

Adjustment, Soft-Close Control, And Repeatable Results

The 3 cam adjustment on this hinge allows the door position to be fine-tuned in multiple directions after the hinge is mounted, which helps straighten reveals and align doors with neighboring fronts without redrilling hinge locations. That adjustability is especially helpful on banks of cabinets where small variances in carcass or door size compound across a wall. The integrated soft close mechanism can be deactivated using the activation switch on the front of the unit, which lets installers adapt the closing action when pairing this hinge with lighter or heavier doors that respond differently to damping. With the possible drilling distance from 2.5 mm to 6.0 mm on the door, the hinge cup location can be chosen within that range to support the desired overlay and edge strength while still staying in the hinge's working geometry. The nickel plated steel finish contributes a stable surface on the hinge components, supporting long-term movement at the pivot and cams in typical cabinet environments. The manufacturer part number CUR36D9R identifies this exact combination of 9/16 inch overlay, soft-close function, 3 cam adjustment, dowel configuration, and 106 degree opening, which helps maintain consistency when specifying hinges across repeat jobs or future expansions.

Common Questions About CUR36D9R Hinge Details

Selecting CUR36D9R For Face-Frame Cabinets

The CUR36D9R soft close hinge from Salice America pairs 9/16 inch overlay, 106 degree opening, and 3 cam adjustment with a nickel plated steel body, giving cabinet builders a defined set of working dimensions. By using the 11 mm cup depth and the 2.5 mm to 6.0 mm drilling distance on the door, hinge layout can follow consistent, repeatable numbers across a project. For cabinet runs using concealed face-frame hinges, this Salice Series CU Silentia hinge offers a soft-close option whose damping can also be deactivated through its front-mounted activation switch when a different closing strength is preferred.
