Nickel Soft-Close Concealed Hinge for Wide-Swing Half Overlay Doors

This Salice Series 200 hinge brings Silentia soft-close to half overlay doors on both face-frame and frameless cabinets, with a 155 degree opening angle and dowel mounting for production-friendly installation.

Key Features

• Silentia soft-close damps the door over the final degrees of closing so it settles without slamming.
• 155 degree opening angle swings the door nearly flat, clearing the cabinet front for wide, unobstructed access.
• Half overlay, half crank arm positions the door to cover the cabinet side by a partial amount, the geometry used where two doors share one center partition.
• Dowel mount presses the cup into pre-bored dowel holes in the door, with no cup screws, for fast CNC and production-line installs.
• Face-frame and frameless compatibility fits this hinge to both cabinet construction types when paired with the matching Salice base plate.
• Nickel finish on plated steel coordinates with drawer pulls, knobs, and other nickel hardware across the installation.

Where a Wide Swing Makes the Difference

Most concealed hinges open to 110 degrees, which covers everyday cabinet access. This hinge opens to 155 degrees, letting the door swing nearly parallel to the cabinet side. That range is the right choice where a door needs to clear an adjacent appliance, a pull-out shelf, or a full-access corner, and where a standard 110 degree hinge would leave the opening partly blocked. The half crank arm sets the door at a half overlay position, so it is the correct geometry for a shared center partition where two doors meet, each covering their half of the opening.

The 35mm cup bores into the door and the hinge connects to a Salice base plate mounted to the cabinet, which is sold separately. Salice plates are specific to this brand and series; plates from other manufacturers will not connect to this hinge.

Nickel Finish and a Controlled Close

The hinge body is plated steel in a nickel finish. For installers coordinating all visible hardware across a project, nickel reads consistently alongside nickel pulls, slides, and knobs. The Silentia damping system handles the close: as the door comes in, the damper slows it through the final arc so it lands quietly rather than hitting the frame. On a wide-swing door that travels farther before closing, that cushioned finish matters more than on a standard hinge.

A Practical Match for Volume Work

The dowel mount is built for shops that run CNC-bored doors at volume. Pre-bored dowel holes in the door accept the cup without separate cup screws, keeping the installation step count low on the bench. Height adjustment of plus or minus 2mm and side adjustment of plus 4.5mm and minus 1.5mm let the installer fine-tune door alignment after hanging without removing the door. This hinge suits cabinet shops, remodelers, and contractors running either face-frame or frameless work and specifying nickel hardware throughout. For doors thicker than the standard range, confirm the thick-door application noted in the SAP data with your Salice plate selection.

Common Questions

Wide Access and a Quiet Close, Coordinated in Nickel

Specify this hinge when the project calls for half overlay doors that swing wide, close quietly, and finish in nickel alongside the rest of the hardware.
