Salice Series B Concealed Hinge for Face-Frame and Frameless Cabinets in Nickel

The Salice Series B CBY2AC9 is a self-close concealed hinge for overlay doors on both face-frame and frameless cabinets, finished in nickel and mounted with screws directly to the cabinet.

Key Features

• Self-close spring pulls the door shut over the final degrees of travel without a separate closer.
• 110 degree opening angle delivers the standard everyday swing for cabinet access.
• Screw-on mounting fastens the hinge arm to the base plate with screws for a firm, stable connection.
• 35mm cup, 45mm bore pattern fits the standard door boring found across most cabinet shops and CNC setups.
• Height and side adjustment brings doors into even alignment after installation.
• Nickel finish on steel coordinates with brushed and satin metal hardware across a range of door styles.

Overlay Doors on Face-Frame or Frameless Boxes

This hinge is designed for overlay doors, where the door face covers the cabinet side or stile rather than sitting flush inside the opening. It works on both face-frame and frameless construction, so it fits traditional American cabinetry with a stile-and-rail front as readily as a European-style box. The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door, and the arm connects to a base plate mounted on the cabinet. That base plate is a separate purchase and must be matched to your cabinet type and construction. Use Salice plates with this hinge. Plates from other brands will not connect to this arm.

The self-close spring does what a door latch used to: it draws the door shut over the last few degrees so it does not hang open. This is not a soft-close hinge. The spring closes the door positively, without a damper to cushion the contact. For projects where a quiet, slowed close is the goal, the Silentia+ soft-close version of this series is the right specification.

Steel Build with a Nickel Finish

The hinge body is steel finished in nickel, a tone that reads as warm silver alongside satin and brushed metal pulls, knobs, and drawer slides. The shallow 9mm cup depth suits thinner door stock and keeps the cup from punching through on doors near the lower end of the standard thickness range. Screw-on mounting locks the arm to the plate mechanically, which suits installations where the firmest possible connection is wanted over a tool-free clip. The side adjustment of plus 4.5 and minus 1.5mm, combined with plus or minus 2mm of height adjustment, gives enough range to level a full run of doors after the boxes are set.

Where This Hinge Fits the Job

Cabinet shops running face-frame production will find this hinge covers both box types from one SKU. Contractors finishing a mix of frameless and framed cabinets on the same job can spec a single part number and adjust the plate choice to the box. The screw-on arm is a straightforward, field-proven connection that any installer knows how to set and verify. For doors thicker than about 22mm, a thick-door hinge is the correct choice. For a damped, quieter close, move to the Silentia+ version.
