Hettich Optimat self-close hinge is a concealed cabinet hinge designed for face frame cabinets where a 3/4 inch overlay is required, so doors cover the frame correctly on kitchen, bath, or shop projects. As a compact two-piece clip-on hinge, it separates into a hinge arm and mounting portion, which speeds hinge installation and later door removal during finishing or service. The hinge provides a 105 degree opening angle, giving good access into the cabinet while keeping the door movement controlled and predictable. An integrated silent system is built into the hinge, so the door closes softly, which reduces impact on the frame and helps maintain alignment over time. This hinge is part of the Hettich Optimat line, so it follows the same geometry and adjustment logic that installers expect from this series on repeat jobs.
This Optimat clip-on hinge is built as a 6-way adjustable face frame hinge, so you can fine-tune the door position after boring and mounting. Side adjustment under 1 inch overlay uses a plus or minus 1.3mm cam, and over 1 inch overlay uses a plus or minus 1.7mm cam, letting you move the door sideways to tighten or open reveals without re-drilling. Depth adjustment uses a plus 2.6mm cam, so you can shift the door in or out relative to the face frame when dealing with warped doors or slightly out-of-square cases. Height adjustment of plus or minus 1.4mm cam allows small vertical moves at the hinge, which is helpful for lining up top edges and rail lines across multiple doors. All three cam-based adjustments are built into the hinge body, so fine tuning is done with standard tools at install time or during later service work.
This hinge is specified as a face frame hinge with 3/4 inch overlay, so it is suited to face frame cabinets where the door must overlap the frame by that amount on the hinge side. With a door thickness rating up to 3/4 inch (19mm), it works with common solid wood and panel door constructions used in kitchens, baths, and built-ins. The 105 degree opening angle provides enough swing for normal cabinet access in residential and shop environments while keeping the door clear of adjacent cabinetry in many layouts. A cup diameter of 35mm and cup distance of 3mm align with standard European boring, which keeps layout consistent when you are switching from other 35mm concealed hinge lines. The dowel description in the product name signals a boring-ready cup side connection, which fits production shops that use dowel-style hinge cup installation methods on cabinet doors.
The two-piece clip-on design allows the door-side cup to be mounted and then clipped onto the frame-side portion, so doors can be removed quickly for finishing, hinge-side edge work, or hardware changes without disturbing the hinge settings. Because the hinge is 6-way adjustable, you can correct minor drilling or case construction variation at the cam adjustments instead of rebuilding components, which saves labor during installation on site. Side adjustment cams with separate values for under and over 1 inch overlay help you bring reveals into line across various overlay conditions that occur in a run of cabinets. The depth cam allows pushing or pulling the door relative to the face frame by up to plus 2.6mm, which helps when cases are slightly bowed or when adding door bumpers changes the closing position. Height adjustment of plus or minus 1.4mm at the hinge lets you align rails and top edges after doors are hung, reducing the need to trim doors for small height differences. The integrated silent system controls the final closing movement, so repeated use subjects the frame and door to less shock, supporting long-term alignment where hinges are adjusted once and left in place.
The hinge is a concealed face frame hinge, so it is used on face frame cabinets where the hardware should be hidden and the door overlays the frame.
The hinge is specified as a 3/4 inch overlay hinge, so the door is intended to overlap the face frame by that amount on the hinge side.
The hinge is rated for door thickness up to 3/4 inch, or 19mm, so it fits many standard cabinet door constructions.
The hinge has a 1-3/8 inch, or 35mm, cup diameter with a 1/8 inch, or 3mm, cup distance, matching common European 35mm hinge boring layouts.
The hinge provides side, depth, and height cam adjustments, so you can tune reveals, door projection, and vertical alignment after the doors are hung.
The hinge meets and exceeds the minimum requirements of the ANSI/BHMA A156.9 standard, so it fits projects that call for that cabinet hardware level.
The Hettich Optimat self-close hinge combines a 3/4 inch overlay face frame design, 105 degree opening angle, and a 35mm cup layout, which aligns with common cabinet construction and boring setups. Its two-piece clip-on configuration and six-way cam adjustment provide flexibility for aligning doors, responding to real-world case variation, and removing doors during finishing while holding hinge positions. The integrated silent system manages closing speed on every cycle, which supports smooth cabinet operation on residential or commercial work. For projects that call for concealed face frame hinges meeting ANSI/BHMA A156.9 minimum requirements, this Optimat model 9295582 offers a defined geometry and adjustment range that fits production and professional installation workflows.
