Description
Sugatsune Olympia 93 Degree Hinge For Inset Doors
Sugatsune Olympia 93 degree hinge is a concealed cabinet hinge designed for inset applications on face-frame and frameless cabinets, so door edges align cleanly with the cabinet frame while keeping hardware hidden for a streamlined look. This hinge offers a 93 degree opening angle, which sets a controlled door swing that helps keep doors clear of nearby obstacles on tight runs. It is a self-close hinge, so the spring action pulls the door shut at the end of travel, supporting consistent closing on everyday use. As a concealed cabinet hinge, it mounts inside the cabinet, which keeps the exterior focus on the door design in both shop-built and commercial work. The hinge belongs to the Sugatsune Olympia series, giving installers a defined product class to match across a project.
Functional Details That Support Cabinet Work
- Load capacity rated at 6 kg (13.2 lbs) per 2 hinges and 10 kg (22 lbs) per 3 hinges allows planning of hinge count for typical cabinet door sizes, helping match hardware selection to expected door weight in kitchens, baths, or casework.
- Maximum door width of 600 mm (23-5/8') provides a clear limit when laying out wider doors, which assists in deciding when to add more hinges or break a wide opening into multiple doors on a run.
- Maximum door thickness of 20 mm (13/16') defines the door stock that works with this hinge geometry, guiding material selection for solid wood or panel doors in the shop before machining hinges.
- Clip on type construction allows the hinge to detach from the mounting plate without tools, which speeds door removal for finishing, adjustments, and service in the field on both new and existing installations.
- 3-way adjustment with the door installed provides alignment capability after mounting, allowing fine tuning of reveals, height, and depth without pulling doors off during final fit-up.
- Successfully passing a 200,000 cycles test indicates the hinge mechanism has been performance-tested through extensive open-and-close motion, supporting use in frequently operated cabinet doors.
Installation And Adjustment For Consistent Results
This Olympia self close inset hinge uses a screw-on attachment style, which lets installers fasten the hinge securely to the door using screws for a stable mounting. The clip on design then connects the hinge arm to the mounting plate, so doors can be hung late in the build or removed quickly during finishing or hardware changes. With 3-way adjustment available while the door is installed, the hinge supports precise tuning of gaps and door position directly on the cabinet, reducing re-drilling during layout corrections. The 93 degree opening angle sets a predictable stop point, which helps maintain alignment on adjacent cabinetry and prevents doors from swinging beyond the intended arc against nearby surfaces.
Using This Olympia Hinge In Cabinet Projects
Where This Concealed Inset Hinge Performs Best
This Sugatsune Olympia concealed cabinet hinge fits inset overlay applications on face-frame cabinets and frameless cabinets, so it can be used across mixed construction in the same space. The hinge is part of the European standard hinge category and the European concealed long arm hinges class, which aligns it with modern concealed hinge layouts commonly used in kitchen and casework production. Load capacity ratings of 6 kg (13.2 lbs) for two hinges and 10 kg (22 lbs) for three hinges give clear planning parameters for everyday residential and light commercial doors within the stated width and thickness. The maximum recommended door width of 600 mm (23-5/8') and maximum door thickness of 20 mm (13/16') define a practical working envelope suited to many cabinet and vanity doors without overbuilding hardware. As an inset hinge, it holds the door flush within the cabinet opening, supporting clean, furniture-like reveals on built-ins and higher-end cabinetry.
How Adjustment, Damping, And Rating Aid Workflow
The 3-way adjustment on this Olympia 3-way adjustment hinge allows installers to fine tune door position after mounting, which helps dial in consistent gaps between doors and frames during final alignment. Because adjustments can be made with the door installed, installers can quickly see changes in real time and correct for small drilling variances without removing parts. The built-in 5-speed adjustable damper lets users tune closing behavior, so the same hinge can be set for different door sizes or user preferences by changing the damping level. This adjustable damping works together with the self-close action to control door motion from the last portion of travel through to a firm close. The successfully passed 200,000 cycles test provides assurance that the hinge, spring, and damper mechanism have been exercised through extensive motion, supporting long-term performance in high-use cabinets. The clip on concealed hinge interface shortens time on site when doors must be removed for access, painting, or hardware changes, which is especially useful in larger projects or service situations. With identity defined by manufacturer part number 360-C26-0T, shops can standardize on this exact hinge across orders, simplifying reorders and maintaining consistent function on replacements.
