Blind Corner Hinge For Doors That Meet at an Angled or Adjacent Cabinet

This Salice Series 700 concealed hinge is built for blind corner cabinet applications on both face-frame and frameless boxes, with Silentia soft-close integrated into the hinge and dowel mounting for CNC and production-ready installs.

Key Features

• Blind corner geometry restricts the swing angle so the door clears the adjacent cabinet without collision.
• Silentia soft-close damps the door over the final closing arc so it settles quietly every time.
• Dowel mount presses the cup into pre-bored 8mm dowel holes, eliminating cup screws for faster production assembly.
• Works on face-frame and frameless cabinets when paired with the matching Salice base plate, sold separately.
• Three-way adjustment lets you dial height, side, and depth after the doors are hung.
• 35mm cup, 45mm bore pattern fits standard production boring on doors 16 to 22mm thick.

Clearing the Adjacent Cabinet in a Blind Corner Run

A blind corner cabinet sits where two cabinet runs meet at a corner, and one door has to swing past or alongside the adjacent box. Without a hinge engineered for that geometry, the door either collides with the neighboring cabinet or demands extra clearance that wastes interior space. This hinge solves that by restricting the opening arc to the angle that lets the door travel freely without hitting the cabinet next to it. The 110 degree opening is the correct geometry for this application, not a limitation. The 35mm cup bores into the door back, and the arm clips to a Salice base plate mounted to the cabinet, ordered separately. Because plates are Salice-specific, pair this hinge with a plate from the same brand and series.

Series 700 Build with Silentia Damping

The hinge is plated steel in a nickel finish. Series 700 is Salice's premium concealed line, and the defining feature here is Silentia soft-close built directly into the hinge body. There is no separate damper to add and nothing to clip on afterward. The soft-close slows the door over the last few degrees of travel, protecting the corner geometry from repeated impact and keeping the cabinet face quiet under daily use. The dowel mount presses into 8mm holes in the door, so cup screws are not part of the install, which shaves time on production runs and CNC-bored doors.

Shops and Installers Working Blind Corner Layouts

This hinge is the right call for cabinet shops and contractors laying out kitchens with blind corner base or wall cabinets where a swinging door needs to clear an adjacent run. It suits both frameless European boxes and face-frame construction, so it covers a mixed shop's output without sourcing two different hinges. The dowel mount makes it a natural fit for CNC operations where doors arrive pre-bored. For standard doors in the 16 to 22mm range. For doors outside that thickness range, a thick-door or thin-door variant is the appropriate choice instead.

Common Questions

The Right Geometry for Every Blind Corner Door

Specify this hinge when the layout calls for a door that has to clear an adjacent cabinet run, and you want soft-close, dowel-mount speed, and a hinge that works across both face-frame and frameless construction.
