Pacta Type I Push-Open hinge is a compact hinge system for drop down doors, so it supports flap-style fronts without separate stays. This matters when you want clean interiors and fewer components to fit into tight cabinet spaces. The hinge is designed for medium duty use in a tan finish, which suits projects where the hardware should visually blend with warm-toned interiors. As a hinge system specifically for drop down doors, it keeps motion controlled at the pivot, which helps reduce shocks on the cabinet and door over time. The design eliminates the need for additional cables or flap stays, which streamlines layout in upper cabinets and similar enclosures. Because it functions as a dedicated system, it lets you standardize a single solution wherever you repeat this style of door.
The hinge is suited for drop down doors in kitchens, bathrooms, closets, and commercial applications, so it adapts across multiple cabinet runs using the same hardware family. A minimum door height of 11 inches defines the lower limit of fronts it is intended to support, which guides door sizing when you lay out smaller cabinets. A maximum door height of 16 inches sets the upper range for the system, which helps keep door weight and leverage within the hinge design envelope. The option to add a center hinge on cabinets 30 inches or wider gives a clear trigger point for reinforcing wider fronts. Together, these parameters help align cabinet design, door sizing, and hinge count.
This Salice America hinge system is intended for drop down doors in kitchens, bathrooms, closets, and commercial applications, so it can be applied consistently across residential and light commercial millwork. In a kitchen run, the hinge supports drop down fronts over appliances or work zones, and the alignment of the open door with the cabinet bottom panel creates a smooth surface for access or light-duty task space. In bathroom or closet cabinets, the same alignment helps present a flat ledge when the door is open, which can assist with placing small items temporarily during use. In commercial applications, the soft-opening function provides controlled movement where multiple users interact with the cabinets, which can support a more uniform feel from opening to opening.
The soft-opening feature provides a controlled and gradual opening, which reduces abrupt drops of the door and helps manage the load within the 50 lb. load rating. This rating defines the maximum load the hinge system is designed to handle, which supports planning around door construction and anticipated front weight. The fully open alignment of the door with the cabinet bottom panel creates a continuous surface, which can improve workflow where the open front temporarily extends the working or access zone. The hinge is offered as soft-opening with self-close or soft-opening with push-to-open for handle-less doors, so you can choose between a traditional pull operation or a push-to-open action that removes the need for front handles. Covers in a variety of finishes let you match or neutralize the hinge appearance against different interior schemes, which is useful where the hinge location is visible inside premium cabinetry. The medium duty description positions this hinge for typical cabinet fronts within the specified door height range, helping it slot into standard residential and comparable commercial casework.

The hinge is suited for kitchens, bathrooms, closets, and commercial applications, so it can be used across different cabinet groups with the same hardware family.
The hinge system has a 50 lb. load rating, which guides door construction and expected loads so fronts stay within the hinge design limits.
