Nickel Concealed Hinge for 1/2 Inch Overlay Doors

The Sugatsune Olympia 360-26-14T is a free-swinging concealed hinge in a nickel finish, built for 1/2 inch overlay doors on both face-frame and frameless cabinets. Its half-crank arm geometry sets the door at the partial overlay position, and screw-on mounting fastens it directly to the cabinet without a tool-free plate system.

Key Features

• Free-swinging motion means the door holds at any position without a spring or damper pulling it closed.
• 1/2 inch overlay, half-crank arm positions the door at a partial overlay, the correct geometry for two doors sharing a center partition.
• 105 degree opening angle delivers practical access on doors set to this overlay configuration.
• Screw-on mounting fastens directly to the cabinet side or stile with wood screws, no pre-drilled system holes required.
• Works on face-frame and frameless cabinets with the appropriate matching base plate, sold separately.
• Nickel finish on steel coordinates with brushed metal hardware across a cabinet run.

Where This Hinge Belongs

The half-crank arm makes this hinge the right pick wherever two doors meet on a single center partition, each overlapping the cabinet side by about half an inch. That includes double-door base cabinets, pantry pairs, and partial-overlay face-frame work where the reveal sits between the door edge and the frame. It suits frameless construction equally well when the layout calls for a partial overlay rather than a full-cover door.

Free-swinging motion keeps the door at whatever angle it is set to, which suits applications paired with a push-to-open mechanism or a magnetic catch, and anywhere a spring-pull close is not part of the design. The 35mm cup bores into the door back in the standard position, and the arm connects to a base plate mounted on the cabinet, ordered separately. Plates are Sugatsune-specific and not interchangeable with other brands.

Steel Build in a Nickel Finish

The hinge body is steel with a nickel finish, a neutral mid-tone that sits between bright chrome and warm brass and reads consistently alongside other nickel pulls, knobs, and slides in a coordinated interior. For a cabinet run where finish continuity across all visible hardware matters, the nickel Olympia hinge is the link that ties the concealed hardware to the decorative pieces.

Door thickness for this hinge runs from 15mm to 20mm, covering most standard door stock in the 5/8 to 13/16 inch range. The 11mm cup depth works within that window. Doors thinner than 15mm or thicker than 20mm need a different hinge sized for that stock.

Who Should Specify This Hinge

Cabinet shops running partial-overlay door programs will find this hinge a clean fit for face-frame and frameless boxes in the same order. Designers specifying Sugatsune hardware across a project can carry the nickel finish from decorative hardware into the concealed hinge without a finish mismatch. Contractors and remodelers replacing worn half-overlay hinges will recognize the standard 35mm cup and 45mm bore pattern as a familiar replacement geometry.

Because this hinge is free-swinging, it works well in any layout that uses a separate closing or latching mechanism. If the project needs a self-closing spring or a soft-close damper, the Olympia series offers those motion options in the same line.

A Partial-Overlay Hinge That Holds Its Position

Specify the nickel Olympia 360-26-14T when the layout calls for 1/2 inch overlay doors that stay where they are set, across face-frame or frameless cabinets, with a finish that carries through to the rest of the hardware.
