Soft-Close Angled Hinge for 45-Degree Bay and Corner Cabinets

This Hettich Sensys hinge is built for cabinet boxes set at a positive 45-degree angle, the geometry found in bay cabinets, diagonal corner units, and angled wall configurations, with integrated Silent System soft-close and toolless arm engagement on both face-frame and frameless cabinets.

Key Features

• +45-degree cabinet angle matches the hinge geometry to outward-angled bay and corner cabinet boxes.
• Silent System soft-close damps the door over the final closing arc so it settles without impact.
• 95-degree opening delivers the correct swing for a door mounted at a 45-degree cabinet angle, allowing clean access without over-travel.
• Toolless snap-on arm connects the hinge to the base plate without tools for fast door hanging and removal.
• Wide door thickness range handles doors from 15mm to 28mm, covering thin-panel and thicker solid-wood doors in the same hinge.
• Overlay configuration positions the door to cover the cabinet side or face-frame stile in a standard overlay reveal.

Where the Geometry Does the Work

Bay cabinets and diagonal corner units open at an angle to the room rather than square to the wall. A standard hinge on that box forces the door into the wrong plane and the close never sits right. This hinge is built to the +45-degree cabinet angle so the arm geometry matches the box, the door hangs plumb within the angled opening, and the 95-degree swing clears the adjacent face without binding. The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door, and the arm connects to a Hettich base plate on the cabinet, ordered separately. Plates are Hettich-specific and are not interchangeable with other brands.

Steel Construction With Integrated Soft-Close

The hinge body is steel with a nickel finish. Silent System soft-close is built directly into the Sensys mechanism, so no external damper or add-on clip is needed. The soft-close engages over the door's final closing degrees, taking the slam out of repeated use and protecting both the finish and the door edge. Depth adjustment of plus 3mm and minus 2mm, combined with plus-or-minus 2mm side adjustment, lets the installer dial the reveal after the door is hung.

Who Needs This Hinge

This is the hinge for cabinet shops, designers, and contractors working with angled cabinetry. Diagonal corner base cabinets, 45-degree wall units, and bay-window kitchen runs all call for a hinge built to the cabinet angle rather than adapted from a standard straight box. It works on both frameless and face-frame constructions, and the 15mm to 28mm door thickness range means it handles everything from a standard 19mm slab to a thicker solid-wood or double-panel door without swapping to a different series. For a standard 90-degree cabinet box, any overlay hinge in the Sensys range is the right pick instead.

Common Questions

Angled Cabinetry That Closes Cleanly

Specify this hinge when the cabinet box sits at 45 degrees and the job calls for a quiet, damped close with hardware that fits the geometry from the start.
