Nickel Finish and Precision Fit for 1/2" Overlay Doors

This Salice Series 700 hinge brings Silentia soft-close to 1/2" overlay doors on both face-frame and frameless cabinets, with a dowel mount that seats directly into pre-bored holes for fast, screw-free installation on the door side.

Key Features

• Silentia soft-close cushions the door over the final degrees of travel so it settles without slamming.
• 1/2" overlay, half crank arm positions the door at a partial overlay, the correct geometry for two doors sharing a single center partition.
• 110 degree opening angle delivers standard everyday access for wall and base cabinet doors.
• Dowel mount presses the cup into pre-bored door holes without cup screws, which speeds production and CNC-drilled work.
• Nickel finish on steel blends with pulls, knobs, and other visible hardware across the kitchen or bath.
• Three-way adjustability with height and side adjustment brings doors to an even reveal after mounting.

Partial Overlay Doors on Either Cabinet Construction

A 1/2" overlay door covers part of the cabinet side rather than the full panel, and it is the standard choice when two doors share one center partition. Each door gets a half crank hinge so the pair can close side by side without the arms conflicting. This hinge handles that geometry on both frameless and face-frame boxes, so one SKU works across either cabinet type on a mixed job.

The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door, and the dowel mount presses into pre-bored holes with no cup screws to drive. On the cabinet side, the arm connects to a Salice base plate, ordered separately. Use Salice plates with this hinge; plates are brand-specific and will not interchange with other manufacturers.

Steel Construction and a Finish That Coordinates

The hinge is plated steel with a nickel finish. Nickel sits in a neutral, slightly warm register that pairs cleanly with most hardware families, useful when a project spec carries nickel pulls or bar pulls and the concealed hinges need to match on glass-door or open-shelf applications where the hardware is occasionally visible. The Series 700 position in the Salice line means the Silentia soft-close is built into the hinge body, not an add-on damper clipped on afterward, so the mechanism is integrated and consistent across every door on the run.

Who Reaches for This Hinge

Cabinet shops drilling on a CNC will find the dowel mount a natural fit: the cup presses into the door's pre-bored holes and the install moves without a screwdriver. Contractors finishing face-frame kitchens and designers specifying frameless European boxes can both use this hinge, keeping the order list short when a project mixes cabinet styles. For doors that need to cover the full cabinet side, an overlay hinge is the right call instead. For doors thicker than roughly 22mm, move to a thick-door hinge.
