+45 Degree Angled Hinge for Inset Doors on Angled Cabinets

This Hettich Sensys hinge mounts inset doors on cabinets built at a +45 degree outward angle, with Silent System soft-close and screw-on mounting for both face-frame and frameless construction.

Key Features

• +45 degree cabinet angle geometry makes this hinge purpose-built for outward-angled bay and diagonal cabinet configurations.
• Inset overlay positions the door flush inside the cabinet opening with an even reveal on all sides.
• Silent System soft-close is Hettich's integrated damper, slowing the door over the final closing arc for a quiet settle.
• 95 degree opening angle delivers the right swing clearance for an angled inset door without over-travel.
• Screw-on mounting fastens the base plate to the cabinet with wood screws for a direct, reliable connection.
• Wide door thickness range handles doors from 15mm to 28mm, covering thin panels through thick slab doors.

Where This Hinge Belongs: Angled Bays, Diagonal Corners, Inset Faces

A standard concealed hinge cannot handle a cabinet that angles outward at 45 degrees. This Sensys hinge is machined for exactly that geometry, so the door hangs plumb and the inset reveal stays even even when the cabinet box is not square to the wall. The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door in the usual way, and the hinge arm connects to a separate base plate mounted to the cabinet side or face frame. That plate is sold separately; match it to your cabinet construction and the Hettich Sensys series.

Inset fitting here requires the same care as any flush door application: the reveal depends on accurate boring and tight tolerances. The 95 degree opening is the engineered swing for this angled application, keeping the door from over-traveling past its designed arc.

Steel Construction, Nickel Finish, Silent System Damping

The hinge body is steel in a Nickel finish. Silent System, Hettich's integrated soft-close, is built directly into the Sensys mechanism rather than added as a clip-on adapter. That means the damping is consistent hinge to hinge and does not depend on a secondary part being fitted correctly. Side adjustment of plus or minus 2mm and depth adjustment of plus 3mm and minus 2mm let the installer dial in the reveal after the doors are hung, which matters most on angled cabinetry where cumulative tolerances can add up.

Right for Designers and Builders Working with Angled Layouts

This hinge is a specialty tool for a specific job. It suits kitchen designers specifying angled peninsula cabinets, custom builders framing diagonal corner pieces, and cabinet shops producing bay-window or angled-face runs. It works on both frameless boxes and face-frame cabinets, so the same hinge carries through a mixed project. For a standard 90 degree cabinet with inset doors, a straight Sensys inset hinge is the correct pick instead.

Precise Fit for a Demanding Cabinet Layout

When the design calls for inset doors on angled cabinetry, this Sensys hinge provides the geometry, the damping, and the adjustability to get every door sitting square and closing quietly.
