Sugatsune overlay angle hinge is a semi-concealed specialty hinge designed for overlay cabinet doors, so it supports projects that need clean lines with functional movement. The AHS-24/SN model from Sugatsune America is specified for surface-mount doors with a thickness of 24 mm, or 1 inch, which helps match hinge choice to thicker overlay fronts. This same AHS-24/SN hinge is also specified for recess-mount doors at 27 mm, or 1-1/16 inch, giving flexibility when the door is set into a shallow pocket instead of mounted directly on the face. As a 3/4 inch overlay hinge, it is suited to applications where the door overlays most of the cabinet side, which is common in face-frame and frameless layouts that need consistent reveals. The satin nickel finish ties into modern hardware palettes while staying neutral enough for a range of cabinet materials in shops and residential work.
The Sugatsune AHS-24/SN hinge is specified for surface-mount doors at 24 mm, or 1 inch thick, so fabricators can select door materials and edging that land on this thickness for reliable overlay alignment. For recess-mounted doors, the same hinge is specified at 27 mm, or 1-1/16 inch, which lets builders cut a shallow recess and still maintain the designed clearances because the recommended thickness is tuned to that mounting style. The 3/4 inch overlay description ties directly to how far the door covers the cabinet side, which matters when laying out reveals across a bank of doors so gaps and coverage stay consistent. By matching door width, height, and weight to the listed limits, installers can keep the hinge working within its design range, supporting predictable motion and long-term function on cabinets and similar casework.
This Sugatsune overlay angle hinge sits in the Semi-Concealed Hinges product class, so it works well where some visible hardware is acceptable but a fully surface-mounted strap hinge is not desired. As a specialty hinge in the Hinges | Specialty Hinges category, it fits projects that call for overlay doors with specific angle or coverage requirements beyond a straight concealed cup hinge. The 3/4 inch overlay characteristic makes it suitable for cabinet designs where the door must overlap the cabinet side significantly, helping conceal the case edge while preserving a defined reveal. With a recommended maximum door width of 450 mm and height of 700 mm, it fits many wall and base cabinet doors, allowing installers to use the same hinge family across multiple cabinet positions. The specified weight limit of 2.6 kg per pair aligns with common cabinet door constructions that use medium-density materials, keeping the hinge loading within a predictable range for everyday use.
The 24 mm surface-mount thickness recommendation establishes a clear target when building overlay doors, so edge banding, panel laminates, and core materials can be chosen to land on a thickness that lets the Sugatsune AHS-24/SN hinge operate in its intended geometry. For recess-mounted applications, the 27 mm door thickness specification accounts for the material set into the recess, so the door still swings and closes to the correct plane without dragging or misaligning against the face of the cabinet. The 3/4 inch overlay dimension directly influences hinge placement, because it dictates how far the door covers the cabinet side, which in turn controls the visible gap between adjacent doors on multi-door runs. Staying within the maximum 450 mm width and 700 mm height means each door presents a manageable moment load to the hinge pair, supporting smoother movement along the hinge knuckle and reducing stress at the screw fixing points. Observing the 2.6 kg door weight per pair keeps the hinge working inside its stated capacity, which supports consistent alignment over time on doors that see regular opening and closing in kitchen, bath, or general casework settings.
The Sugatsune AHS-24/SN is a semi-concealed specialty overlay angle hinge, so part of the hinge stays visible while most of the working mechanism is hidden behind the door and cabinet.
The Sugatsune AHS-24/SN hinge is recommended for surface-mount doors with a thickness of 24 mm, or 1 inch, which guides material selection for overlay applications.
The AHS-24/SN hinge is specified for recess-mount doors at 27 mm, or 1-1/16 inch thick, so it supports installations where the door sits in a shallow recess.
The Sugatsune AHS-24/SN is recommended for doors up to 450 mm wide and 700 mm high, which defines a size range where the hinge can control movement effectively.
A pair of Sugatsune AHS-24/SN hinges is rated for doors up to 2.6 kg, or 5.7 pounds, which aligns with many standard cabinet door constructions.
The AHS-24/SN hinge has a satin nickel finish, so it coordinates with other satin nickel cabinet hardware in the same project.
The Sugatsune overlay angle hinge AHS-24/SN combines a 3/4 inch overlay design with defined door thickness, size, and weight ranges, so it serves projects that need predictable overlay performance. By aligning door construction to the 24 mm surface-mount or 27 mm recess-mount recommendations, cabinet builders can integrate this satin nickel semi-concealed hinge into new work or upgrades where those dimensions are already in play. When an overlay hinge with these specific Sugatsune America parameters matches the door layout on the bench, this model offers a focused option for completing the hinge run.
