Hettich Optimat self-close hinge gives you a compact concealed hinge for face frame cabinets that closes the door quietly and consistently. The hinge uses a two-piece Optimat clip-on design, so the cup mounts to the door while the separate mounting plate stays on the face frame, which supports quick door removal and re-hanging during shop work or field service. The integrated Silent System controls the closing motion, so doors are pulled shut smoothly to protect the cabinet and door edges in everyday use. This model is built for a 1-1/4 inch overlay, so it positions the door to overlap the face frame by that amount for a typical full-overlay look on many face frame layouts. As a concealed cabinet hinge, it stays hidden when the door is closed, which keeps the installed cabinet line clean while still giving you functional adjustment.
This 3D face-frame hinge is listed for door thickness up to 3/4 inch, so standard cabinet doors in that range will sit correctly in the cup and move as intended. The cup diameter is specified at 1-3/8 inch, or 35mm, which matches common European-style boring setups used in cabinet shops and on-site jigs. A minimum drilling depth of 7/16 inch, or 11mm, allows the cup to seat fully in the door without bottoming out, supporting secure attachment. Cup distance is given as 1/8 inch, or 3mm, which defines how far the cup bore sits from the door edge and helps locate the overlay relative to the face frame. Side, depth, and height adjustments are cam driven, so once holes are bored and plates fixed, fine-tuning is done with simple cam turns rather than re-drilling.
This concealed cabinet hinge from Hettich America Corporation is classified as a concealed face frame hinge, so it is suited for face frame cabinets where the hinge hardware needs to stay out of sight. The 1-1/4 inch overlay configuration supports layouts that call for a larger overlay on the frame, which is common on many full-overlay kitchen and bath installations. Because the hinge opening is specified at 105 degrees, the door swings out far enough for comfortable access to shelves and hardware inside the cabinet, which is helpful around busy work zones. The hinge is part of the Optimat compact family, so the hinge cup and mechanism sit tight to the door, which is beneficial in narrow cabinets or where interior space is at a premium. Nickel finish on the hinge fits well with standard interior hardware, so the inside of the cabinet looks consistent with other concealed components used in the build.
The Optimat hinge is described as a 6-way adjustable face frame hinge, so it offers three axes of adjustment that can be worked from both sides of the cabinet run for precise alignment. Side adjustment is cam-based and specified as plus or minus 1.3mm under 1 inch overlay and plus or minus 1.5mm over 1 inch overlay, so you can nudge doors horizontally to tune gaps and reveals between doors or to the frame. Depth adjustment is listed as plus 2.6mm cam, which lets you pull the door closer to or further from the face frame to align the door face with neighboring fronts along a run. Height adjustment is specified as plus or minus 1.4mm via cam, which lets you shift the door up or down on the frame to correct for layout variations in boring or mounting. Dampening activation is given as 35 degrees, so the Silent System begins its work partway through the closing swing to transition the door from free movement into a controlled self-close for a consistent feel.
This hinge is categorized as a concealed face frame hinge, so it is used on face frame cabinets where the hardware is hidden when the door is closed.
