Nickel Concealed Hinge for Inset Doors on Face-Frame and Frameless Cabinets

The Salice Series B concealed hinge hangs inset doors on both face-frame and frameless cabinets, with a self-close spring and a screw-on mount, finished in nickel.

Key Features

• Inset geometry with full crank arm positions the door flush inside the cabinet opening with an even reveal on all sides.
• Self-close spring pulls the door shut over the last few degrees of travel without a separate closer.
• 110 degree opening provides standard everyday access from an inset position.
• Screw-on mount fastens the hinge directly to the cabinet for a solid, permanent connection.
• Works on face-frame and frameless cabinets with the appropriate matching Salice base plate, sold separately.
• Nickel finish on steel suits installations where the hardware coordinates with other nickel fittings.

Fitting a Door That Sits Inside the Opening

An inset door is recessed into the cabinet opening rather than lapping over the front. The gap between the door edge and the frame is visible on all sides, so precise fitting and consistent geometry matter. This hinge carries the inset crank that positions the door correctly inside that opening. The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door, and the arm connects to a Salice base plate fastened to the cabinet, ordered separately. The self-close spring draws the door the rest of the way shut once it gets within a few degrees of closed, so there is no need for a separate catch or pull-to-latch hardware on most installations.

Because the cabinet type attribute confirms both face-frame and frameless use, this hinge fits either construction when paired with the matching Salice plate for that application. Plates are Salice-specific and not interchangeable with other brands.

Steel Build in a Nickel Finish

The hinge is plated steel, and the nickel finish reads as a cool, understated tone that pairs naturally with brushed nickel pulls, knobs, and other hardware visible on the same run of cabinets. On inset work, where the gap between door and frame draws the eye, coordinating finish across hinges and visible hardware ties the look together. The screw-on mount locks the hinge to the cabinet mechanically, which is a reliable, no-surprises connection that does not depend on pre-drilled system holes in the cabinet panel.

Where This Hinge Fits the Job

Inset doors call for closer tolerances and more deliberate fitting than overlay work, so this hinge is the right pick for cabinet shops and finish carpenters who are already set up for inset cabinetry. It is equally at home on a frameless box or a face-frame cabinet as long as the right Salice plate goes in with it. For homeowners retrofitting a single cabinet, the screw-on mount is straightforward and needs no special tooling beyond a drill. If a project calls for a cushioned, damped close rather than a spring pull, the Salice Silentia+ soft-close version of this series is the closer comparison. For standard doors 16 to 22mm thick, this hinge fits as intended; doors outside that range need a thick-door or thin-door hinge.

Common Questions

Inset Doors That Close on Their Own, Finished in Nickel

Specify this hinge when the design calls for flush inset doors with a self-close spring, a nickel finish that coordinates across the hardware, and a screw-on mount that works on face-frame or frameless cabinets alike.
