Thick Door Hinge For Half Overlay Doors on Face-Frame and Frameless Cabinets

This Salice 200 Series concealed hinge is engineered specifically for thick doors, hanging half overlay doors on both face-frame and frameless cabinets with Silentia soft-close and dowel mounting.

Key Features

• Thick door engineering with a 35mm cup and 13.5mm cup depth sized for doors beyond the standard thickness window.
• Silentia soft-close damps the door over the last degrees of travel so it settles quietly without slamming.
• Half overlay, half crank arm positions the door at a partial overlay, the geometry for two doors sharing a single center partition.
• 94 degree opening angle, the correct swing for a thick door that needs clearance from the cabinet front without binding.
• Dowel mounting presses the cup into bored dowel holes for fast, accurate placement in CNC and production environments.
• Height and side adjustment dials in alignment after installation without removing the door.

Built Around the Thick Door

A thick door cannot take a standard concealed hinge. The cup geometry and arm clearances are different, and the opening angle has to be reduced so the door swings clear of the cabinet face without collision. That is what the 94 degree opening delivers here: it is the engineered angle for a door this thick, not a restriction. The half crank arm sets the door at a partial overlay, which covers part of the cabinet side and is the natural geometry when two doors meet on a shared center partition. The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door and the hinge connects to a Salice base plate on the cabinet, ordered separately.

Steel Construction with a Quiet Close

The hinge is plated steel in a nickel finish. Silentia soft-close is built directly into the hinge body, so there is no separate add-on damper to source. It slows the door across the final arc of closing, which protects both the door and the cabinet over years of daily use. The 45mm bore pattern and 35mm cup are confirmed specs for this series, so replacement installs into existing thick-door boring go in clean.

Where It Fits

This hinge belongs on production runs and renovation work where thick doors require a purpose-built concealed hinge rather than a workaround. It suits both frameless and face-frame cabinet construction, so a mixed project does not need two different hinge lines. Dowel mounting is the right call for CNC shops and high-volume installs: the cup presses into pre-bored dowel holes for consistent placement without cup screws. For standard-thickness doors in the 16 to 22mm range, a standard 200 Series hinge is the better fit.
